[edit] Gnuff

Gnuff (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs) – (View log)

Non notable furry comic. There's an interview with the creator of the comic listed as an external link, but that's about it. No reliable sources, no assertion of the notability of the comic, so delete per WP:ATT, WP:V and WP:N-K@ngiemeep! 01:45, 28 March 2007 (UTC)

  • Strong keep.A series published internationally, by a respected and famous Danish cartoonist. Published over several years by Fantagraphics, one of the top comics publishers.
The article should be expanded and improved,true, but this anti-furry crusade is getting out of hand-- especiazlly as this is not a furry title. Rhinoracer 15:22, 28 March 2007 (UTC)
  • Delete per nom. Article is nothing more than a summary of a comic with no assertion of WP:N, no reliable sources to satisfy WP:ATT. Arkyan • (talk) 15:38, 28 March 2007 (UTC)
  • Keep, internationally published, the creator is well known. 96T 16:52, 28 March 2007 (UTC)
  • Keep, is there some new WP:FURRY policy urging a purge that I don't know about? Artw 18:09, 28 March 2007 (UTC)
  • Weak keep: if the assertion that the strip is widely published in Sunday newspapers is true, then it meets notability standards. However, reliable sources still need to be added to confirm this. Krimpet (talk/review) 01:33, 29 March 2007 (UTC)
  • Comment:Here's Freddy Milton's bio on Lambieck: http://www.lambiek.net/artists/m/milton_f.htm The artist is obviously notable.
Information about Gnuff, from Allexperts:
http://en.allexperts.com/e/g/gn/gnuff.htm
...which site clearly states that Milton was interviewed, in print, in Amazing Heroesno 129; this is an authoritative source.
'Gnuff' also appeared in other comics, such as the Usagi Yojimbo color special:

Clearly, a professionallly produced and distributed comic, the creation of a notable cartoonist.Rhinoracer 18:36, 29 March 2007 (UTC)
    • All Experts is a wikipedia mirror, so not really a great reference. Lambiek is a pretty well respected source of information though. And the Usagi Yojimbo link should definately help establish notability, and should probably be added to the article right now. Artw 18:40, 29 March 2007 (UTC)
