[edit] Rob Petrone

This is a vanity page by and about Rob Petrone. He made 9 guest-strips for the webcomic Casey and Andy. I feel this does not entitle him to a Wiki entry, especially when real webcomic creators and administrators do not get such a privilege. So, I say delete. -- Ritchy 23 September 2005

• Andy Weir set up a Casey and Andy wikipedia, where that article certainly does belong. It doesn't belong here, though. Delete. DS 19:42, 7 October 2005 (UTC)
• Delete per DS.

• Delete. Web comics are judged much too leniently on AFD, and web comic authors should meet a higher standard for inclusion than the strips. When an article on a webcomic guest-author has absolutely nothing encyclopedic to say about the subject other than "he guest-authored 9 webcomic strips" then that is not sufficient to support an individual bio page. Mention him on the page for the webcomic, and wait until there is something more to say about the author to give him his own bio. It's really pretty stunning--nearly the entire article is about the strip. The only thing it says about Petrone is that he's from Philly. Quale 04:14, 11 October 2005 (UTC)
• Delete. NN. For the long version of my views on webcomics, see here. -- SCZenz 17:21, 11 October 2005 (UTC)
