[edit] Fanart Central
Not-notable, does not seem to meet WP:WEB guideline. Thanks/wangi 00:53, 29 September 2006 (UTC)
- Weak keep. Technically you're right, but there does seem to be a sufficient relevance to an online art community that it will become technically notable in the future. I have not checked the site or article carefully, but this is not an open-and-shut case. 129.98.212.164 02:24, 29 September 2006 (UTC)

- Comment If it will become notable in the future, we can take a look at it again and recreate it. Right now, no. None of the content is verifiable through third party sources. Delete. ColourBurst 04:41, 29 September 2006 (UTC)
- Delete. The site itself is filled with the sort of run-of-the-mill anime that every 10th grader is tossing off these days, and it isn't even that busy of a site (2 years, and the top message forum only has 48K posts). Johnbrownsbody 02:55, 29 September 2006 (UTC)
- Weak Delete. 54,600 google hits, an alexa rank of 26,570, but fails WP:WEB. Ultra-Loser Talk | BT sites 05:31, 29 September 2006 (UTC)
- Weak delete I've heard of it, and it's reasonably popular. The article also avoids many of the common problems with online-community articles, such as thankfully not listing every admin, banned user, forum drama, every time the servers went down, etc. But the only reference is a thread on its own forum, so verification with reliable sources would be a problem. Delete unless some strong reliable sources are found. Andrew Lenahan - Starblind 13:43, 29 September 2006 (UTC)
- Weak delete, per Starblind. I've contributed much to that article (and as a user of said site, am well aware of NPOV policy), and agree on the reasons given. My vote probably does not constitute a WP:CSD A7 though. --Stratadrake 00:49, 30 September 2006 (UTC)
- Comment: AFD consensus on this matter should probably be extended to the redirect page Fanart Cenral as well. --Stratadrake 00:49, 30 September 2006 (UTC)
