[edit] Team Nexus

A webcomic here hosted on a personal website with no Alexa rank. No assertion of notability in the article. - Hahnchen 02:25, 15 September 2006 (UTC)

• Delete. Appears to fail WP:WEB pretty convincingly. Rockpocket 07:10, 15 September 2006 (UTC)
• Comment (as a fan and the one who originally started the article, I don't know if I should vote or not). I haven't been able to find any specific notability criteria for webcomics, first of all (and - correct me if I'm mistaken - there's no actual policy regarding notability as a criteria for inclusion), so I had no way of determining whether this deserved an article or not. However, what's wrong with having an article on a non-notable topic so long as the information contained within is verifiable and NPOV? CameoAppearance 07:11, 15 September 2006 (UTC)

There's a variety of verifiable things that can be found about me, MacGyverMagic, on the web. Still it's not a good idea to make an article about me, because I didn't do anything of note. You should apply the same to webcomics or any other topic. If a webcomics fails to get any sort of Alexa ranking and Googles badly one can assume it doesn't have enough readers. While we're not paper, we can't include everything that ever existed upon the face of the earth. Allowing every single webcomic in would mean Wikipedia could be used to advertise new comics and WP is not a place to advertise. Webcomic guidelines are included in WP:WEB. And while notability is heavily debated, a complete lack of it, is generally seen as a valid reason to exlude something. Hope this helps. Try taking a look at Comixpedia. - Mgm|^(talk) 09:31, 15 September 2006 (UTC)

• Delete per nominator.

Forgot to sign my vote. - Mgm|^(talk) 09:32, 15 September 2006 (UTC)

• Delete, fails to satisfy WP:WEB. As an aside, CameoAppearance, I appreciate your honesty and restfulness. The notability criteria, while highly disputed and by no means perfect, are usually effective in requiring that the subject of an article is noted enough to have other people create preexisting reliable sources on which an decent article can be developed. Unfortunaley, while the guidelines don't make it as clear as they probably should, WP:WEB is the notabilty guideline that controls webcomics, because webcomics are a form of website.-- danntm ^T _C 06:29, 16 September 2006 (UTC)
• Delete, doesn't meet our content policies, as the article is unverifiable through reliable sources and wikipedia is not an internet guide. -- Dragonfiend 18:28, 16 September 2006 (UTC)
