Redirecting

[edit]

The thing about this comic is that there isn't enough out there at this point in time to warrant it being kept. It doesn't pass WP:NBOOK at this point in time. Nobody is questioning whether or not the comic exists in some format or that the plans for it to be released or the creators' attempts to get a studio interested in producing a movie aren't real. Nobody's questioning that. What we're questioning is whether or not there's enough at this point in time to warrant it actually passing our very strict notability guidelines. When it releases, if it passes our notability guidelines at that point of time it can be re-created. It just shouldn't be un-redirected until that point in time. If it's un-redirected, I'll take it to AfD where it actually stands a fairly good chance of being deleted. The problem with the limited coverage the book has received is that almost all of it is just "hey, this will release at some point in time". There's no true depth of coverage out there right now. It also doesn't help that many of the sources out there only briefly mentioned the comic book in relation to Yudin talking about the comic book world in general. Brief mentions aren't enough to give notability. Tokyogirl79 (。◕‿◕。) 11:54, 29 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

  • And as far as saying "other stuff exists", the existence of other pages on other items doesn't mean that this book/movie really merits an article. WP:OTHERSTUFFEXISTS might just mean that those articles haven't been deleted yet... or it could be that they have received enough coverage to where they merit an entry. The one thing that really goes against this movie's favor is that so far the creators are just shopping around the rights. From what I can see, they haven't actually gotten a company to buy the rights and move into any actual production or filming. Even if they have someone that has purchased the rights, most films don't receive coverage until filming actually starts and even then, that's no guarantee of coverage. WP:NFF basically states that we don't have articles on films (since there was an argument made over the film adaptation) until they've gotten a lot of coverage and have started principal filming. The only time we have articles on films that haven't started filming is when they've received such a drastic amount of coverage that it's an exception to the rule, which is usually rare even for the big multi-million dollar big-name-brand films.
