Talk:Red String (webcomic)

Regarding AfD
I have removed the AfD tag for the time being. My main reason for doing this is that there has been no discussion on this page regarding the AfD by the deletion proposer. As Wikipedia is about concensus, it is my opinion that concerns regarding this article should be discussed before (or concurrently with) tagging an article for deletion is proposed. At that time, if there appears to be a decent contingent wishing to proceed with the AfD process, then it should be proposed accordingly. The Missing Link (talk) 06:22, 2 February 2008 (UTC)
 * Thank you. I saw this and started freaking out. I didn't know what to do, but this article definitely shouldn't be deleted. Sailorknightwing (talk) 18:28, 2 February 2008 (UTC)
 * I'm of the mind to agree, but Wikipolicy has changed a lot since I've been an active Wikipedian here, so they've been doing a lot of crackdown on articles. At the very least, one thing I'm fairly certain on is that this was marked for deletion inappropriately, and so I figured I'd at least make it right.  As far as whether or not it should be deleted, that's up for the people to decide.  :) The Missing Link (talk) 06:33, 4 February 2008 (UTC)

That was actually a proposed deletion, which is used when the person who wants to delete believes that it's an uncontroversial deletion. If they come back and still wish for the article to be deleted, the next step is a formal WP:AfD. -Malkinann (talk) 11:30, 5 February 2008 (UTC)
 * Shows what happens after I wander away from Wikipedia for a long time. I so forget all the steps for everything.  That makes sense though.  At any rate, I'm mainly curious about the results of WP:Articles_for_deletion/Applegeeks; if Applegeeks fails the notability requirements for Internet sites, then certainly this article would as well. The Missing Link (talk) 08:13, 17 February 2008 (UTC)
 * I don't think so. Not only are there independent reviews of Red String, but the comic is also published in print by an independent publisher (Dark Horse), the latter of which isn't true for Applegeeks. AFAICS Dark Horse does count as "both respected and independent of the creators", meaning that the third criterion for notability is in fact matched. --59cobalt (talk) 19:05, 18 February 2008 (UTC)

FYI, an afterpiece: Good $TIME_OF_DAY. I meed to ask you about the reasoning behind the "no consensus" close on Articles for deletion/Red String (webcomic) (2nd nomination). Sure, three hands are raised in favor and three against, but AfDs are theoretically about the facts: note that the "delete" !votes all rest on the same argument (which, I note with some malignance, contains no attempt to improve the article beforehand), while the "keep" !votes address this argument in elaborate detail. Chilliad22 comes around to cautiously supporting retention, which would swing the hand-count to 4-2 for "keep." I ask this with the convenient excuse of supplementing my own, limited experience with AfD closings. Thanks, Kiz o r  10:31, 4 May 2009 (UTC)
 * Now looking back on the discussion, perhaps that is the case. Still, the article's kept anyways, so nothing needs to be done. -- King of &hearts;   &diams;   &clubs;  &spades; 22:41, 4 May 2009 (UTC)
 * Thank you for the reply. Now that I've remembered the issue again, I'm still pasting this conversation to the article's talk page to ward off any future AfDing. :-) --Kiz o r  18:03, 25 June 2009 (UTC)}}  ;-) --Kiz o  r  18:10, 25 June 2009 (UTC)

Graphic novel list template
Would anyone mind if I had a go at converting the chapter and volume list to the Graphic novel list template? -Malkinann (talk) 11:30, 5 February 2008 (UTC)
 * Not at all. Go ahead. --59cobalt (talk) 15:56, 11 February 2008 (UTC)
 * Done. 59cobalt (talk) 18:46, 18 February 2008 (UTC)

Volume 2
I added which chapters are collected in Volume 2. Sailorknightwing (talk) 23:51, 12 February 2008 (UTC)

No Longer on DarkHorse
Red String is no longer published by Dark Horse, I'll update this. Sailorknightwing (talk) 01:38, 17 May 2010 (UTC)

Character updates
First of all, *SPOILERS FOLLOW*. I am not that familiar with Wikipedia guidelines, especially those relating to fiction, but the characters have progressed much since the descriptions were written (for example, Makoto Yosue is now in a relationship with Miharu, and is no longer a secondary character). Should the character descriptions be updated to include information such as that and Kazuo's suicide attempt, which was a major plot arc and the catalyst for his relationship with Miharu ending and her becoming closer to Yosue (leading to the current love triangle)? Or is this information considered more related to plot than character description? Should we wait until the story is resolved (according to the author, there are only 14 pages left, not including the epilogue which will only appear in print, though with three pages posted a week, it will be a little while until it is completed) before updating information? I'm not sure how to approach this. AilinaHavalii (talk) 04:50, 13 July 2013 (UTC)
