Into the Fire (comic) (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs)

Contested prod. No assertion of notability. Publication on deviantART only, fails WP:WEB Fram 15:43, 19 November 2006 (UTC)

  • Delete - with not even an assertion of notability, this is probably speedy-able. --cholmes75 (chit chat) 15:55, 19 November 2006 (UTC)

Undelete Akybonko This is still a work in progress and I'm still learning the ropes of using Wikipedia's code. Give me more time to work on this. Also, a comic hosted on deviantArt is no less important than one that has its own site.

Comment: The problem is not the code, the problem is the notability of the comic. A webcomic on its own wite gets usually deleted as well. What we need is major independent awards, publication on paper by a major publisher (not a vanity press or somesuch), reviews in independent, peer-reviewed magazines or journals, or other clear indications (per WP:V) that the comic is important, notable, of encyclopedic value. This does not indicate if the comic is good or bad, popular or not, but just shows the verifiable impact it has made outside of its site, fan forums, blogs, ... Fram 21:46, 19 November 2006 (UTC)

Undelete Akybonko OK then, fair enough. Can I just close this page myself or what, since I'm the one who made it in the first place?
