Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Biowars (2nd nomination)


 * The following discussion is an archived debate of the proposed deletion of the article below. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page (such as the article's talk page or in a deletion review).  No further edits should be made to this page.

The result was redirect to Gabriel Shaoolian. There is consensus not to have a separate article, and to cover this topic as part of the target article. How much of it is up to consensus of editors, who may merge content as appropriate from the history. (This undoes a previous non-admin closure, see Deletion review/Log/2016 April 17.)

Biowars
AfDs for this article: 
 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Non-notable self-published comic series. Only has one good reliable source (the CNET article), not enough to sufficiently establish notability. Iago Qnsi (talk) 22:26, 14 March 2016 (UTC)

 * Hopefully I'm responding to this correctly, but I did add another reputable source (Wired article) to add some validity, as well as linking from Gabriel Shaoolian's (mentioned creator) Wiki page in order to eliminate its orphan designation. For a webcomic, this is one of the more notable to have come out in the past 5 years, so I feel it's deserving of a Wiki page. --Ekoolaid8

 * Redirect to Gabriel Shaoolian at best for now because this itself is still questionable for a better independently notable article and there perhaps no serious needs for deletion. SwisterTwister   talk  04:09, 27 March 2016 (UTC)

 * Merge into Gabriel Shaoolian. I think there's a good amount of sources to create a very nice-looking section in Shaoolian's article on his Biowars project – enough even to establish GNG if the creator wasn't notable already. Shaoolian's article is short, so there's no good reason to keep these two split. We can at least get rid of the blog sources this way :p ~ Mable ( chat ) 05:33, 29 March 2016 (UTC)

 * Merge with Gabriel Shaoolian. The list of characters is clearly not notable, we should just merge the introduction paragraph, because the rest is not notable. ThePlatypusofDoom (talk) 13:01, 9 April 2016 (UTC)
 * Let's try not to lose the Wired source while doing so, but yes. ~ Mable ( chat ) 13:32, 9 April 2016 (UTC)


 * Strong Keep: why is this getting nominated for deletion? Notability is clearly given. There are multiple news articles on it, , , and its facebook page has 125.037 likes. --Fixuture (talk) 17:49, 15 April 2016 (UTC)
