[edit] Cat Town

Does a website with an alexa ranking of 1.2mil notable enough for a wikipedia article? Probably not. What about a subpage of that said domain at CAT TOWN. A set of captioned photos, each one featuring a cat. Apparently, it's some sort of fumetti, and is listed as a webcomic. There are some sites which intentionally look bad to be funny, this one tries, but fails at being funny. Just because it's a webcomic does not mean it is notable, this entry is pure vanity. - Hahnchen 00:50, 25 September 2005 (UTC)

• Delete nn webcomic vanity. To be notable among 8 billion websites, you've really got to go some. -Splash^talk 01:16, 25 September 2005 (UTC)

• Keep. Refer to the August 2004 VfD for arguments which remain valid. --Jake 16:38, 25 September 2005 (UTC)
• Keep. Up for deletion before and voted a keeper. -- Gunther 16:40, 25 September 2005 (UTC)
• Keep. It's only vanity if the article is written by the creator - so, the vanity rule does not apply. Nor do opinions about whether it is funny or not count. Keeping this article doesn't harm wikipedia. --Fangz 16:48, 25 September 2005 (UTC)
  • Comment - There are many unfunny things on Wikipedia. The reason I nominated it to be deleted, is that it is a website, with 1 million more popular websites before it. How many websites should we allow on wikipedia? 1 million? more? Wikipedia is not a web directory, and should never turn into one. I'm sure someone's personal "My first page on the web" on geocities is more popular than this, that does not mean it should have its own article. - Hahnchen 23:54, 25 September 2005 (UTC)
• Delete. I count 23 strips (not enough for WP:COMIC) and an alexa rating of 1.2M (ditto). This strip's VfD appears to have been closed more than a month ago, which IMO is enough time. Andrew pmk | Talk 18:08, 25 September 2005 (UTC)
• Delete, nn comic. User:Zoe|^(talk) 22:03, 25 September 2005 (UTC)
• Keep, notable comic as far as I can see. Piecraft 00:04, 26 September 2005 (UTC)
• Delete First of all, it looks like someone's first attempt at a animation series AND a website, somethin that does not automatically qualify for an article. Second, the series is in no way noteworthy, so I see no reason to keep it. -bjelleklang 01:13, 26 September 2005 (UTC)
