Another advertisement? Maybe it is me. &#8212; Bill 22:02, 14 Oct 2004 (UTC)
 * Derek didn't add the entry -- I did. Derek's considered pretty important on the webcomics scene (see this month's issue of the Webcomics Examiner -- www.webcomicsreview.com -- which is completely dedicated to Derek).  I added the entry as part of my modification to the entry for "Web comic," which has a listing of "significant artists" -- a listing that only included two artists before I added a few more today.  Since I had added Derek to that list, I went ahead and started a little entry for him, to link to.  Anybody on the webcomics scene could vouch for Derek's importance.  I appreciate that the entry I wrote was not very well-done, though.  I was hoping somebody else could come along and expand on it.

 * Keep. Very notable. First web comic artist to win major comics awards (few people win both a Harvey and an Eisner in the same year). Current article does read like an ad, though.   &mdash; Gwalla | Talk 00:30, 15 Oct 2004 (UTC)
 * Keep! Derek Kirk Kim has had serious, positive reviews of his work. I am going to add a bit, but Joey, don't expect others to do your work, you started it, come on expand it, we have other articles we are working on too! --AlainV 00:33, 15 Oct 2004 (UTC)

 * comment: I think that calling this "deletion trolling" is uncalled for. The article as it stood when this was nominated was a stub with an external link and only one internal link, read like marketing, and half consisted of a promotional quote. I don't blame Bill for listing it here&mdash;it looked exactly like an advertisement.   &mdash; Gwalla | Talk 02:52, 20 Oct 2004 (UTC)
 * It should have been cleaned up, not put on VfD to hope others clean it up for you. anthony (see warning) 13:22, 20 Oct 2004 (UTC)
