Amazing Comics

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Short run manga anthology magazine, only ran for 5 issues. No ja.wiki article. The Italian wiki page is just a translation of an older revision. A stub article should be capable of expanding into a Start or higher class, I don't see the possibility for that to happen and proving notability would be extremely difficult considering the short run.

 Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
 * Redirect to List of manga magazines. Would a redirect be okay, or should we remove the title altogether from the list? - Knowledgekid87 (talk) 15:34, 24 July 2016 (UTC)

 * Delete as lacking coverage in either Japanese or English; searching for sources results mostly in false positives. Sadly, given its obscurity, I don't think this would be a viable redirect. Narutolovehinata5 tccsdnew 22:00, 1 August 2016 (UTC)
 * Redirect to List of manga magazines I wasn't able to find any book or scholarly sources discussing the magazine. Searching the kanji yields mostly blogs or retail sites. Unfortunate considering it published mangaka like Oshii and Otomo. Regarding the redirect situation, my understanding is that many non-notable topics can be mentioned in broader articles and it was a manga magazine despite its short run. I also don't see how obscurity plays a role since the entry in the list is sourced to MAD. Opencooper (talk) 12:22, 2 August 2016 (UTC)
 * Comment Since the article was nominated the table at List of manga magazines has been updated to include a section for comments about the individual titles (such as changes to publishing schedule). Although I don't see the need to withdraw the nomination seeing as the reasoning is still valid, I am prepared to perform a non-admin close as merge to the list if that is acceptable.SephyTheThird (talk) 18:43, 2 August 2016 (UTC)
