The result of the debate was no consensus, with weak arguments on both sides and no significant majority in numbers. Although those arguing for deletion haven't responded to the references presented, as none of the information Steve presented is actually used in the article it's unclear how they will affect it. --Sam Blanning(talk) 11:11, 23 June 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Slam Bang
Seems to be a vanity article promoting a comic book published by the editor. While my first thoughts were that making it a stub may be more appropriate, other similar articles created by the editor (Allen Freeman and Fan-Atic Press) seem to have been simply deleted. While I can't seem to find any evidence of them anymore on Wikipedia, I'm sure they existed, as the content still seems to be mirrored on other sites. Dancter 18:28, 7 June 2006 (UTC)

- Weak keep the article has verifiable comics press mentions, being purportedly reviewed twice in the Comics Buyer's Guide and the refusal of Diamond Comics to distribute it covered in The Comics Journal. If it's true Rick Geary contributed, you can add that to the list too. Steve block Talk 20:36, 13 June 2006 (UTC)

- 'Comment, WP:VANITY is not a reason to delete, and given this is a discussion rather than a vote, it would be helpful if you could offer some opinion as to why you think this article should be deleted. Any transgression against WP:VANITY is fixable through a rewrite, not through deletion. Steve block Talk 11:02, 20 June 2006 (UTC)
- Keep per above. --JJay 00:24, 20 June 2006 (UTC)
