 * Speedy delete per CSD:A7 - no assertion of notability. --Coredesat 21:26, 25 June 2006 (UTC)
 * Speedy Delete per above, adspam from self-confessed unnotable company (mainly sells on eBay - I mean, come on...). --DaveG12345 16:14, 26 June 2006 (UTC)
 * Keepi made this because there are more than Super Dollfies out there and some people don't know. there has been a lot of controversy surrounding this company and causing flame wars and misunderstanding. A group of us from Den of Angels put this together so others can get the whole story and history behind these dolls, while also giving information about them. thanks--Amarazyxxie 21:21, 26 June 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep This company is totally legit right now and this article has as much right to be here as any other article. If this article isn't allowed the Super Dollfie article should be deleted too! It's very informative about a fledgeling BJD company! The company is totally notable. There is an entire thread 60+ pages long on Den of Angels the largest english BJD forum on the web. Where threads rarely get over 10 pages. Doll Zone Supporters Alliance If a BJD comapny can get that much attention on DOA then they are certainly worth mentioning. The reason they are mostly bought on eBay is because the Chinese site only sells the dolls within China. This is a very common practice in Asia where you have to live in a country A to order something from a company located in country A. It's very hard for people to make a site in a language that they are not completly fluent in. So it's just easier for them to sell through a rep who prefers eBay. There are thousands of totally legitimate companies selling on eBay. Jerrysugarav 07:02, 28 June 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep I've just recently learend of Dollzone's BJDs and I'm completly in love with them. I was looking up bjds in wikipedia and I'm saddened that this one might be removed.  I enjoy learning from wikipedia and I go there for all of my encyclopedia needs.  I was very excited to find a few articles on dollfies here and it would be a shame to see this one go.--Mandypandy 14:31, 28 June 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete I'm a ABJD fan, but this company isn't really world-culture important, other than perhaps a mention on the main ABJD page. I don't think listing all 25 or so abjd companies on here is important, considering how small these companies are.  There is a whole BJD wiki for detailed info on BJDs, only general info is really relavent to this Wikipedia.

 * As Danaar pointed out i am not a regular because this is my first article the other two people i don't think helped out on this article but as you just said i am new. so just like you i would like to note that you are as well so does that mean we shouldn't listen to your vote too? i think everyone has the right to vote and be heard.Amarazyxxie 02:19, 29 June 2006 (UTC)
 * Actually, There is no vote! The administrator will take into account what people say, but can make either determination.  (And, I have nearly 500 edits over several subjects, mainly art and japanese subject matter).  People with few votes, or who have vested interest in the article, usually aren't given as much consideration.  Mythdoll simply isn't notable, they haven't had books (or other articles in news and media) written about them or their products, their stock isn't used to calculate stock market indecies.

 * Delete as per DaveG12345. --M e rovingian { T C @ } 03:57, 29 June 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep. An internationally known company from China. The article should be tagged as needing cleanup, because the POV is apparent. I see good potential in this article after cleanup. Royalbroil 04:58, 30 June 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete as this seems to be mainly something discussed on ebay and web forums, with little or no apparent press coverage, I'm not entirely certain that it meets our verifiability requirements. I believe it would also likely fail wp:CORP.  It's also worth noting that there is a wiki all about ball-jointed dolls, and this company doesn't even have a page there yet.
