Code Lyoko: Rebirth

(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

This is, by its own admission, an American fan created extension of the French Code Lyoko TV franchise. If it ever makes it to TV then it could be notable but there is no indication that this will ever be more than a web based fan production on YouTube, even if it is an authorised one. So we have no proof of notability, no independent references and a clear conflict of interests problem too. I see this as a slam-dunk deletion case but the author does not agree and has not agreed in the past. Rather than go round the loop of it being deleted and recreated again, with only 2 or 3 people involved, I'd like us to have a discussion here with wider inclusion and reach a decision we can all understand, respect and stick to. (If nothing else I hope it will prove that this isn't just me being mean but even if that were to be the consensus at least it would resolve the matter once and for all.)

Delete. This seems reasonable. As it stands, I can't find any real coverage of this project in reliable sources, and a quick look through the YouTube channel shows they don't have much work done, so they're unlikely to get any for a while. WP:CRYSTAL comes to mind. — Earwig ^talk 22:21, 2 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Delete "Fan-created"; why isn't this A7'ed? Unless a network is snookered into picking this up somehow, fan-created projects earn automatic deletions, and this is no exception. Nate • (chatter) 01:07, 3 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Delete I am at a loss as to how this page is still up. This does not meet the adequate needs to be on WP. --Lit1979 (contribs • talk) 23:39, 6 January 2016 (UTC) — Lit1979 (talk • contribs) has made few or no other edits outside this topic. [reply]

Administrator note - Lit1979 started editing yesterday and went straight for AfDs. Cyphoidbomb (talk) 18:08, 7 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]

As at least one editor has pointed out elsewhere, Lit1979 seems to be making valid contributions at Afd, stating that he or she has been following Wikipedia for some time. The editor doesn't seem to be default-!voting one way or another. Let's WP:AGF. Shawn in Montreal (talk) 20:40, 8 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]
