[edit] Goblin chronicles
Comic book released three days ago; no claim in article of meeting WP:Notability, no sources in article to show notability. Gsearch comes up with lots of blog mentions (many by the creators of the comic), but not much solid evidence of notability. Contested prod. Fabrictramp (talk) 14:39, 22 March 2008 (UTC)
- Keep or Delete depending on whether those reviews mentioned actually exist. If they do, they should be linked to and ideally summarized. If they don't, delete it. - Peregrine Fisher (talk) 20:47, 25 March 2008 (UTC)
- Links to third-party reviews by popular and reputable comic book news sites have been added. I believe this entry is note worthy as it is a published piece of work which has been positively reveiwed on serveral reputable comic book news sites. It is also the first "all-ages" fantasy genre comic published by Ape Entertainment, which has been publishing comic book for over 5 years.Trollx (talk) 17:32, 26 March 2008 (UTC)
- Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so that consensus may be reached.

- Keep Links provided seem to provide notability. Article and links need wikification. Hobit (talk) 01:46, 29 March 2008 (UTC)
- Keep AICN and Broken Frontiers are pretty reliable reviewers (the former notable, the latter link seems to be redirecting at the moment despite being listed on their review page) but Ape is currently scraping by on notability and none of the creators are as yet notable. That said Ape have got some interest in some recent series and as this is only just starting and has some good reviews already I err on the side of keep but it does need more sources - I'll keep an eye out for interviews as they can help add extra real-world context to proceedings.

- Delete, does not appear to have been out for long enough to have developed any serious notability. Stifle (talk) 23:37, 29 March 2008 (UTC)
- Delete per nom, Stifle. Eusebeus (talk) 15:18, 30 March 2008 (UTC)
- Added additional proof of notability to the article. Two prequel stories featuring characters from The Goblin Chronicles minieseries have been published prior to the release of the miniseries. The first prequel story was published back in May 2007 for Free Comic Book Day. The second story was published in the Fablewood Anthology, which was published in Feb 2008. Two links to interviews with the creators were also added.Trollx (talk) 06:10, 31 March 2008 (UTC)
- Make my above statement a keep then. AfD isn't supposed to be our way of improving an article, but that's the result in this case. Close as no consensus this time if you must. - Peregrine Fisher (talk) 06:29, 31 March 2008 (UTC)
