[edit] Starsomething

This webcomic was originally nominated and deleted last year at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Starsomething and can be found on the comic genesis free web host, here. The reasons for this nomination are the same as the original, it is not a notable website, there are no respectable third party stories relating to this subject. The comic's authors have gone onto arguably more notable projects since this, but they don't have the midas touch. Just as we don't have an article on Moby's high school band, we shouldn't have an article on this random website. - Hahnchen 00:29, 15 August 2006 (UTC)

  • Delete and mention it on the RPG World and Adventurers! author's pages. I've read it - there's not much there. humblefool® 01:10, 16 August 2006 (UTC)
  • Keep They didn't go on to notable projects. They came from Adventurers! and RPG World, for pete's sake. These are both hugely popular webcomics. They are at the level, and have been around long enough, that they don't need to put themselves on rating lists or similar. Starsomething was visited by large chunks of both their fanbases.--Mobius Soul 03:46, 16 August 2006 (UTC)
    • Comment - My apologies for confusing them. They were a sideproject running alongside the arguably more notable comics, but my point still stands, they do not have the Midas touch. - Hahnchen 14:24, 16 August 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete as unverifiable through reliable sources and WP:NOT an internet guide. As far as being associated with the "hugely popular" webcomics Adventurers! and RPG World goes, is there a reliable source that suggests these webcomics are "hugely popular"? They appear to have the hugely not very popular Alexa rankings of 291,620 [1] and 308,925 [2] respectively. -- Dragonfiend 04:04, 16 August 2006 (UTC)
