[edit] The Lounge

Comic in question fails WP:WEB. It's hosted on Comic Genesis, but past precedent (Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/After Eden) would suggest that it should be deleted if it fails to assert further notability. --Brad Beattie ^(talk) 03:25, 27 October 2006 (UTC)

• Delete - Based on past precedent and my Google search returned nothing about this comic. Cheers -- Imoeng 06:06, 27 October 2006 (UTC)
• Keep - The article in question, as well as any comic hosted on Keenspace, should also be restored. They all meet criterium 3 of WP:WEB. Rōnin 09:49, 27 October 2006 (UTC)
  • Have you actually read WP:WEB? This article appears to FAIL all 3 criteria. TJ Spyke 21:57, 27 October 2006 (UTC)
• Keep per Rōnin. Havok (T/C/c) 10:33, 27 October 2006 (UTC)
• Comment. Take a look at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Alien Dice. Alien Dice is a comic hosted on Keenspace and it's article was quite recently put through the deletion process (result was delete). I think we have a precedent set that being hosted on Keenspace (now called Comic Genesis) isn't sufficient to meet WP:WEB. --Brad Beattie ^(talk) 11:00, 27 October 2006 (UTC)
• Comment. I see that you think that. I don't think there's any need to repeat a mistake on the basis that it was made before. Rōnin 11:03, 27 October 2006 (UTC)
• Keep as per Rõnin's comment. --Kizor 15:52, 27 October 2006 (UTC)
• Speedy Delete A7 - Does not assert the importance or significance of its subject. Does not meet our official content policies as it is unverifiable through reliable sources and WP:NOT an internet guide. Also fails our WP:WEB guideline in that this article does not reference multiple non-trivial sources or any well-known awards, and "Comic genesis" is not generally well-known and being hosted on "Comic genesis" is exceedingly trivial. They are a free web host with over 6,000 comics. If being hosted on "Comic genesis" were a significant historical event, then we would have third-party reliable sources with reputations for fact-checking and accuracy covering such comics. -- Dragonfiend 20:01, 27 October 2006 (UTC)
• Speedy Delete per Dragonfiend. TJ Spyke 21:57, 27 October 2006 (UTC)
  • Comment. Speedy, speedy, speedy. What is it with deleters assuming fancruft, considering absence of proof the proof of absence, and trying to sidestep the entire AfD even when they're already winning? --Kizor 23:06, 27 October 2006 (UTC)
