[edit] Scythe the bounty hunter

I already tried prod'ing it and the author removed the tag, so I will send it to AFD. It is about a future release. Wikipedia is not a crystal ball. Kungfu Adam (talk) 23:58, 3 May 2006 (UTC)


  • I request as the author this article not be deleted. Alot of fans of the series need information on the topic, I plan to add more quotations and concept art of the series, information on the authors and writers. Deleting this article is censorship, which is a crime. JL Jeremiah (talk) 24:20, 3 May 2006 (UTC)
    • Comment - if you continue to post things claiming that you are being censored, when in fact standard WP procedure is being followed, no one will take your arguments seriously. Wickethewok 00:02, 4 May 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete - I prod2'd it (removed of course without explanation). Remove for both crystal-ballism and complete lack of notability. Google search reveals few relevant hits. Wickethewok 00:02, 4 May 2006 (UTC)
  • it is in production, the release is but upon 60 days, and you tell me that i cannot create an article? Other people have created articles upon this site that have told of Preproductions and productions in process. please tell me what is wrong with the article? I was adding quotations and staff information and all of a sudden, "POP" someone plops a big ugly deletion request on top of it? What say you?

    • Response - Your webtoons do not meet any sort of notability criteria, which is grounds for deletion. Wickethewok 00:11, 4 May 2006 (UTC)
    • Response- it is an adaption, it started as a publication. so technically, it applies to the entire concept of it. you are misinformed, let me carry out my article, i have much work to do.

      • Response - Ummm, unless you are going to state why your flash animation is notable and important, its gonna get deleted. If you wish your article to be kept, I suggest you assert some significance. Wickethewok 00:15, 4 May 2006 (UTC)
        • Response Scythe the bounty hunter began as a book series, they are written and currently published, yet the flash animation is in production. This article pertains to the entire concept, not just to the flash animation. So i plea that you leave my article be, and leave myself to carry out my good work sir. --JLJeremiah 00:18, 4 May 2006 (UTC)
          • Response - A google search reveals no results backing up your claims. There are established notability guidelines for books and publicationshere. Please make your argument in terms of this, instead of disregarding this AFD. Wickethewok 00:25, 4 May 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete Although this could certainly become notable, at the moment it is clearly not. For that matter, it doesn't even appear (not in links nor a brief google search) to have its own web site yet. This encyclopedia cannot be a place to announce projects, only to cite sources that are published elsewhere. - user:rasd
  • Speedy delete, I have already deleted this once and warned the editor about spamming us with his non-notable non-existant product. The red link to his name is also worrisome. User:Zoe|(talk) 02:00, 4 May 2006 (UTC)
I believe I can sum this up by saying: eminently non-notable and easily 14 loaves of vanity. As an added note, it is spiced with one previous delete. Bake it nicely in an easy bake oven and you get...Delete. 07:42, 4 May 2006 (UTC)
  • Bye-Bye This is nothing but an attempt to publicise a piece of work, and one that is not even finished, for that matter. The author is attempting to drum up support for this project before it is ready.
    • Comment Also, the author claims the series is based on "previous writings" by him. Yet he has included no links to these writings.
      • Conclusion In Wikipedia:What Wikipedia Is Not, under "Wikipedia is not a soapbox", it states a ruling by the abitration commitee, made on the 17th of February, 2006. Editors should avoid contributing to articles about themselves, their direct family or subjects in which they are personally involved, as it is difficult to maintain a neutral point of view while doing so. When the abitration comitee made this law, they would have said self-promotion of your sites should be included. Therefore, to be fair, this article should be deleted, however, if another user decides to create this page, it would be fair. The creator of a flash animation should not make an article discussing that animation. Scalene 08:20, 4 May 2006 (UTC)
