[edit] Sosiaalisesti rajoittuneet

Sosiaalisesti rajoittuneet (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs) - (View log)

Article's only claim to fame is that it's the first Finnish web comic. Even if this were verified, it wouldn't meet any of the three criteria of WP:WEB. Brad Beattie (talk) 20:47, 17 January 2007 (UTC)

  • Delete unless reliable sources showing notability are produced.Keep - Willing to give the benefit of the doubt; looks like it's been print-published in notable publications (though I can't really research Finnish-language stuff), also don't want to contribute to systematic bias. Props to Kizor for working on this. --Fang Aili talk 21:19, 17 January 2007 (UTC)
  • Weak keep Finnish version of the article claims it has been published in ITviikko and Ilta-Sanomat, though I don't know if that refers to their websites or print, latter of which might mean it's at least somewhat notable. Still, getting the comics on such major publications, even to their online editions, is quite an achievement. However, right at the moment, some more sourcing to get claims of fame established would be mighty great. I'm not coffeed enough to do that myself. --wwwwolf (barks/growls) 17:36, 18 January 2007 (UTC)
  • Keep. Notable as the largest and most popular webcomic of a nontrivial country. Verifiable by being featured in significant media of the same. Being featured in either ITviikko and Ilta-Sanomat, the latter of which is the largest Finnish tabloid, meets criteria #3 of WP:WEB regardless of whether this featuring was in print or online. --Kizor 15:42, 19 January 2007 (UTC)
  • Delete, article has no third-party sources for anything, let alone any suggesting importance. -- Dragonfiend 01:15, 20 January 2007 (UTC) Keep per Kizor's introduction of multiple references to reliable third-party sources which presumably discuss topic's importance (I don't read Finnish myself). -- Dragonfiend 16:44, 22 January 2007 (UTC)
  • Comment. I contacted a writer and received the times and newspapers when and where the comic has been featured in print. These constitute distribution in a well-known medium independent of the creators. I received an article about the strip itself as well. I've added these to the references as well as I could. Sosiaalisesti rajoittuneet was also featured in a notable online publication, but a subscription-only one, and a good while ago, so how would we prove that? --Kizor 11:23, 22 January 2007 (UTC)
  • Keep. Looks notable, albeit in need of cleaning up. Apparently meets WP:WEB 3. —xyzzyn 16:56, 22 January 2007 (UTC)
  • Keep per Kizor. --Brad Beattie (talk) 17:52, 22 January 2007 (UTC)
  • Comment. This is a great feeling, folks. --Kizor 20:01, 22 January 2007 (UTC)
