Contesting the Speedy Deletion
I do not believe that this article should be a candidate for deletion. Here are my arguments:

1) This comic serves as an "unofficial" sequel to the television series "Captain N: The Game Master", so it does have connection to other forms of media/works. At the very least there should be a subsection in the Captain N page giving it mention. To support this claim I point to the page on Edison's Conquest of Mars, in which the page is devoted to the unofficial, unauthorized, and even admittedly much less famous sequel to the original war of the worlds. Sure, its older, but its just as obscure and realistically follows the same concept (unofficial sequel). Yet it gets its own page. I understand that the 7th rule does not apply to books, but clearly there is a bias here.

2) This comic has been long running and fairly successful, running for nearly 8 years and publishing over five hundred story comics (each heavily plot driven and wordy) and a size-able number of filler comics (also often longer than 8 panels). It still updates, so it is not a dead phenomenon.

3) Several sources have rated this as a well written comic.

4)All previous complaints about the page have been remedied (as it was once deleted in 2007)

5)There are countless other web comics with their own pages on Wikipedia, many shorter lived and with pages that have fewer references than this one. Here is a basic list: Wendy Pini's Masque of the Red Death (also an unofficial sequel, this one tries to bulk itself up by hiding behind the topic of gay relationships) What the Duck (this page is sparse to say the least, and probably less notable than Captain SNES. Yet it has been up since 2007) A Six Feet Girl Married to the Sea NatalieDee Don't Forget To Validate Your Parking Sequential Art (webcomic) The Public Works

...and these are just a few.

6) I am in the process of updating references, so hang on, they are coming (seriously I just created this page yesterday).

I hope this issue can be resolved fairly, and I would appreciate feedback, as I am not trying to cause trouble, but simply format this page in a way that complies with Wikipedia standards.Oceandepths99 (talk) 00:55, 7 April 2009 (UTC)

I was looking into some stuff on the site as well, and apparently they have had cross-overs with around four other comics. Possible addition to notability? (Creating a stronger sprite based comic community) Oceandepths99 (talk) 02:50, 7 April 2009 (UTC)


 * You can work on it here and try to fix the issues (it was deleted thrice at WP:AFD for missing notability as well as multiple other times). See our guidelines on the notability of web content. As for your reasoning:


 * 1) Please see Other stuff exists. That other things exist is not a reason to keep a page, each page is unique.
 * 2) Not relevant to notability.
 * 3) Are any of them reliable sources? If so, add them.
 * 4) Even if that were true (it isn't because there still is no reason to believe this subject to be notable), it's not a reason against deletion.
 * 5) See #1
 * 6) If you can do so, fine. After you are done, you can move it back to article space. But please don't do so unless you have corrected the reasons for deletion.
 * Please see Your first article, Spoiler warning and Verifiability for more guidance. Also, please see these previous discussions:

Deletion
I read several of the reasons for this pages original deletion, and I believe that I have remedied the situation. If there are any continuing problems, let me know and I will fix anything that needs fixing.Oceandepths99 (talk) 02:40, 6 April 2009 (UTC)
