The result was Keep. Being nominated for major awards and the being archived in Australia's national archives supports notability.Alabamaboy 00:35, 22 September 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Shadowed Realms
Shadowed Realms is one of seven articles (now listed at AfD) created by a new user. These articles seem designed to advance the publisher, Brimstone Press. I have listed them separately so that they may be considered separately. Shadowed Realms has not received enough coverage in reliable sources that are independent of Shadowed Realms and Brimstone Press to develop an attributable article on the topic and the article should be deleted. -- Jreferee (Talk) 01:57, 11 September 2007 (UTC)

- Keep. I created this and the other entries mentioned in the AfD banner. For a full explanation, see my note on Shane Jiraiya Cummings AfD talk page and my talk page. Re: this entry, I believe this is a notable magazine that has been nominated for a major Australian literary award and published several notable genre writers. The verifiable sources is cited in the references include a long-standing publishing trade magazine (Locus), an international writers peak body (SFWA), and The National Archives of Australia. I'd propose if editors feel this entry is not notable enough on its own, then perhaps it could be merged with Brimstone Press? --Outcast44 05:28, 16 September 2007 (UTC)
- Delete as fails to demonstrate notability per WP:WEB.--Gavin Collins 09:59, 17 September 2007 (UTC)
- Reply I disagree. This webzine's content has won an established, well known Australian literary award and has been nominated for several more awards - easily satisfying criteria 2 of WP:WEB. Again, I suggest either Keeping this or Merging the entry with Brimstone Press. Outcast44 14:59, 17 September 2007 (UTC)
- Keep: The site was important enough that the Department of Communications, Information Technology and the Arts (Australia) archived its material for the National Archives of Australia's Pandora project. On its own, this means it was very significant for Australians. They also published the very significant Poppy Z. Brite and many others on their site Antmusic 21:19, 20 September 2007 (UTC)
