[edit] Secrets of the Universe

Is this a notable website? Is it a notable webcomic? You can have a look here and the answer should be a resounding no. Their forums house 70 members, and Alexa has never heard of them. This is one of many non-notable webcomics currently residing at Wikipedia, let's put a stop to it. - Hahnchen 00:04, 8 April 2006 (UTC)

• weak keep I'm not sure if its fair to measure notability for this kind of subject matter with Alexia and Google. Roodog2k 13:39, 8 April 2006 (UTC)

comment. I'm not sure how else to measure notability of anything on the web. In any case, surely the burden of proof is with those who assert its notability. In the absense of such proof, we can only assume that it is non-notable. Bucketsofg 15:16, 8 April 2006 (UTC)

• Delete webcomics are one of the few instances where google and alexia are exactly how you gauge its popularity . . . --He:ah? 19:34, 8 April 2006 (UTC)
• Delete per all above. Funnybunny 19:47, 8 April 2006 (UTC)
• Keep According to the article, and the site's archives, this comic has been running consistently for about three years. The site's author updates it three times a week. According to its stats page, it averages several hundred visits per update. This is a notable body of work. HuntyrGreen 23:23, 8 April 2006 (UTC)
• Delete Longevety is not notability. "Several hundred hits" means next to nothing; millions of sites have several hundred hits. Nifboy 02:34, 10 April 2006 (UTC)
