Acony (manga)

 * – ( View AfD View log  •  )

Contested PROD, Contested REDIRECT,... So best way to settle it is AfD. This series doesn't meet either the WP:GNG or WP:BK. I found no evidence of notability, no licensor outside Japan and no hint that it will be adapted into a movie, anime or drama. Thus i'm asking for a delete. Below the list of clues from which i based my opinion:
 * There is evidence of a re-print in 2009 ja 1ja 2
 * No evidence of notability found. Search engine results are scanlations related websites & blogs
 * No licensor outside Japan found
 * Scanlation in English is totally stall at vol. 1 out of 2 and this series doesn't generate much buzz within the fandom KrebMarkt 13:08, 29 June 2010 (UTC)

 * Comment Article creator & the Ip who contested both the PROD & the REDIRECT have been dully notified of this AfD. There is no big contents edits contributor to be notified on this one. --KrebMarkt 13:17, 29 June 2010 (UTC)


 * I don't think that's a reprint -- serialization went on hiatus while the author worked on another series (I forget which at the moment) and resumed later, thus the large gap between volumes 1 and 2. I've found very little buzz about this one, especially compared to Toume's other series, even in forums I'd expect discussion in. It'll be interesting to see where the story goes, but until it gathers more notability, for now redirect to Kei Toume as a plausible search term relating to the author. —Quasirandom (talk) 14:07, 29 June 2010 (UTC)


 * Delete Fails WP:BK and WP:N; has no significant coverage in any reliable sources. -- AnmaFinotera  (talk · contribs) 14:14, 29 June 2010 (UTC)


 * Redirect to Kei Toume per Quasirandom, this is a possible serch title for those who are fans of the manga or of the author. - Knowledgekid87 (talk) 03:31, 30 June 2010 (UTC)
 * Redirect to Kei Toume as per Quasirandom. Edward321 (talk) 01:45, 3 July 2010 (UTC)


 * Redirect back to Kei Toume and trout, or even an extended block, for disruptive behavior. The IP editor has been informed several times to provide third-party sources instead of mass deprodding/mass restoring articles with no third-party source and insisting on AfD for clear cut mergers/redirects, but has so far refused to cooperate. —Farix (t &#124; c) 17:34, 3 July 2010 (UTC)
