[edit] Animethon

non notable conventions. Nukilo 21:24, 2 February 2007 (UTC)

• Keep — Attendance was 3780 in 2006 according to Vlad Pohnert at Animethon. (I don't know where the wiki page got "4000".) 4000 seems fairly notable to me. Although the page needs references, it doesn't seem like a bad article. There are certainly other pages that are much more worthy of deletion than this. --PatrickD 21:40, 2 February 2007 (UTC)
• Keep. Seems notable enough. "4000" attendance for an animecon is high. Plus the fact that it's been going on for 14 years means it has significant staying power. In fact, I happen to know some popular AMVs premiered at some of this con's events. Needs sources, but it belongs on WP. Shrumster 22:07, 2 February 2007 (UTC)
• Keep and source. It's been around a while, long enough to have had thirteen runs. Not much attendance for a long running con, but we can't all be Anime Expo. =^^= --Dennisthe2 22:14, 2 February 2007 (UTC)
• Comment - User:Nukilo has only created this and an AFD for Otakuthon. --Dennisthe2 22:15, 2 February 2007 (UTC)
• Note: This debate has been included in the list of Anime and manga-related deletions. -- Farix (Talk) 22:50, 2 February 2007 (UTC)
• Keep if the 4000-attendee number is even close to correct, it's a notable convention. Andrew Lenahan - Starblind 23:20, 2 February 2007 (UTC)
• Keep The biggest problem this article has is with sourcing, which should be fixed. But as one of Canada's oldest anime conventions, it is highly notable. --Farix (Talk) 23:53, 2 February 2007 (UTC)
• Keep per other comments and suspect a bad faith nomination. :: Colin Keigher (Talk) 15:21, 3 February 2007 (UTC)
