Wikipedia:WikiProject Deletion sorting/Comics and animation

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
This is an old revision of this page, as edited by AnomieBOT (talk | contribs) at 05:17, 25 June 2025 (Archiving closed XfDs (errors?): Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Phoenix Rises). The present address (URL) is a permanent link to this revision, which may differ significantly from the current revision.

This is a collection of discussions on the deletion of articles related to Comics and animation. It is one of many deletion lists coordinated by WikiProject Deletion sorting. Anyone can help maintain the list on this page.

Adding a new AfD discussion
Adding an AfD to this page does not add it to the main page at WP:AFD. Similarly, removing an AfD from this page does not remove it from the main page at WP:AFD. If you want to nominate an article for deletion, go through the process on that page before adding it to this page. To add a discussion to this page, follow these steps:
  1. Edit this page and add {{Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/PageName}} to the top of the list. Replace "PageName" with the relevant article name, i.e. the one on the existing AFD discussion. Also, indicate the title of the article in the edit summary as it is particularly helpful to add a link to the article in the edit summary. When you save the page, the discussion will automatically appear.
  2. You should also tag the AfD by adding {{subst:delsort|Comics and animation|~~~~}} to it, which will inform editors that it has been listed here. You may place this tag above or below the nomination statement or at the end of the discussion thread.
There are a few scripts and tools that can make this easier.
Removing a closed AfD discussion
Closed AfD discussions are automatically removed by a bot.
Other types of discussions
You can also add and remove other discussions (prod, CfD, TfD etc.) related to Comics and animation. For the other XfD's, the process is the same as AfD (except {{Wikipedia:Miscellany for deletion/PageName}} is used for MFD and {{transclude xfd}} for the rest). For PRODs, adding a link with {{prodded}} will suffice.
Further information
For further information see Wikipedia's deletion policy and WP:AfD for general information about Articles for Deletion, including a list of article deletions sorted by day of nomination.

Nominating per request here by IP editor show states - "The last AfD for this subject was closed as soft delete which was treated as an expired PROD. recently the soft delete was challenged by user User:124.104.175.128 and was accepted and moved back into mainspace by an administrator despite there being zero usable sources. The IP user then removed the notability tag without a reason and made no improvements to the article. This leads me to believe WP:COI as the request for undeletion was the first edit the user ever made.

While there are sources that discuss this particular Hulk alter, none of them are the types of sources that can be used to prove notability. Aside from a single mention in a scholarly book, all but two of the potential sources were operated by Valnet. With regards to the article's current sources, all of them were published by Marvel. In any case, this character could easily be discussed within the Hulk's main article. ―Susmuffin Talk 22:36, 24 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]

The result was soft delete‎. Based on minimal participation, this uncontroversial nomination is treated as an expired PROD (a.k.a. "soft deletion"). Editors can request the article's undeletion. Liz Read! Talk! 23:34, 30 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Fails WP:GNG and WP:CORP. No significant coverage in reliable, independent sources. The article relies on self-published content (e.g., Facebook pages), lacks citations, and reads as promotional.

Benjamin Callins (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) – (View AfD | edits since nomination)
(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs· FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

WP:BLP of an actor, not properly referenced as having any strong claim to passing WP:NACTOR. As always, NACTOR is not automatically passed just because an article lists roles -- the notability test is in the reception of WP:GNG-worthy reliable source coverage about them and their performances, not just the list of performances per se. But the footnotes here are almost all glancing namechecks of his existence in sources that aren't about him in any non-trivial sense, and the only one that says more than two words about Benjamin Callins is an unreliable site that doesn't count toward GNG at all (and even the glancing namechecks aren't all from reliable or notability-building sources either, as for example one of them is just a film festival's self-published program calendar).
Obviously no prejudice against recreation in the future if and when he has a stronger notability claim and better sourcing for it, but nothing stated here is "inherently" notable enough to exempt him from having to have better sources than this. Bearcat (talk) 21:04, 21 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Twin Cities comics artists (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) – (View AfD | edits since nomination)
(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs· FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

This seems like WP:OR. The concept of "Twin Cities comics artists" does not appear to exist on Wikipedia. I've deroted the two refs that supposedly talk abou this and the first done does not seem to mention this term, or Twin Cities ([1], the other one is a news piece about Minnessota ([2]). The following few sentences have no reference and seem even more ORish. Most of the people mentioned in the list here don't have a reference. Even if they are indeed active in that area, this is a pretty niche and trivual grouping, like comic artists in the New York City or Californa or such would be. This seems to fail WP:GNG, WP:NLIST and WP:OR. Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 09:55, 21 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete not opposed to draftify as ATD as article topic has potential though needs much polishing, as article has multiple issues aside from nom s points, found at least a couple of deadlinks, and checking deeper a lot of the citations seems primary sources.

Only review I found is this one by Comics Bulletin: [3]. It alone is not enough for WP:GNG.

Note: I don't think redirection per WP:AtD is appropriate in this case. Instead, Dinowars should be a disambiguation page: 1 link to the comic and the other to video game DinoCity (Japanese title Dinowars). Mika1h (talk) 14:36, 9 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Comment It might be worth noting that the article title probably should be Stacey Gregg (the page with that name has been deleted a few times previously). Don't think she was ever known as Stacy (without the e). She was also known for roles in the US as Stacey Maxwell, eg in The Virginian, The Monkees and Batman. In the UK she's known for roles in Crossroads https://www.newspapers.com/image/893742133 and playing Sandy in Grease alongside Richard Gere eg https://www.newspapers.com/image/840906998 There's a few more hits at https://www.newspapers.com/search/results/?keyword=%22Stacey+Gregg%22++&region=gb-eng worth checking the British Newspaper Archive as well, see also this two-page articles from the TV Times in 1971 (page 8-9) https://mcmweb.co.uk/tvtimes/1971/Nov%206th%201971.pdf Piecesofuk (talk) 08:54, 8 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep As Stacey Gregg she meets WP:NACTOR. She has also been credited as Stacey Jefferson and Stacey Richardson. As well as voicing the roles mentioned in the current article, she played Daffy in all episodes of Tottering Towers and Nurse Baxter in 23 episodes of Crossroads from 1977-1978. On stage, she played Sandy opposite Richard Gere in the British premiere of Grease (musical), first in Coventry and then on the West End. As well as the coverage found by Piecesofuk, there is coverage and information about more roles in the British Newspaper Archive. I'll add more info and sources to the article. There appears to be another Stacey Gregg, probably also notable, who is director of Here Before and co-creator/director of other shows. RebeccaGreen (talk) 18:33, 14 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]

The result was redirect‎ to Big City Greens season 4#ep101 per WP:ATD-R, eliding the ATADD (WP:SOURCESEXIST) made twice by the same IP editor. No prejudice against restoration if third party, independent relible sources providing SIGCOV of the topic are found to demonstrate the notability this discussion failed therein to do.

Article about a future television episode. Has no coverage on the episode itself and is little more than an article shell. One of the three sources is a forum. Could reasonably be made into a draft as a potential WP:ATD. (Oinkers42) (talk) 04:17, 3 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]
