Epotoransu! Mai

 * – (View AfD) (View log)

Unnotable manga series. Fails WP:BK and WP:N. No significant coverage in reliable, third-party sources in any language. Lack of licensing outside of Japan makes it even more unlikely any could be found, and it was a very short lived series. Prod removed by User:Dream Focus with note of "It was translated into French, so yes, it was released outside of Japan. 33,000 Google hits means some notable sources are probably out there" but no evidence was provided for French translation and this is unconfirmed by Anime News Network. Obviously Google hits are not an indication of notability at all - scanslations and fansites are not notability considerations. -- Collectonian  (talk · contribs) 02:06, 25 September 2009 (UTC)

 * Delete Per nom with possible Redirect to Yuu Watase. The Japanese wiki barely has anything on it either. And with only 2 volumes, it was unlikely to have received the critical notice required for notability. —Farix (t &#124; c) 02:38, 25 September 2009 (UTC)
 * Contra the dePRODder, according to French Yuu Watase sites, this series is "non disponible en France." —Quasirandom (talk) 03:02, 25 September 2009 (UTC)
 * Not licensed in France. --KrebMarkt 05:24, 25 September 2009 (UTC)
 * Keep Published in a magazine with 197,273 readers. Wouldn't be carried that long if a significant number of those people weren't reading it.  And with over 80,000 Google hits for the Japanese name, surely some of those are notable reviews.   D r e a m Focus  09:47, 25 September 2009 (UTC)
 * The number of Google hits is irrelevant, and so is the magazine the manga was serialized in. The notability of the magazine does not transfer to the magazine's contents. —Farix (t &#124; c) 11:04, 25 September 2009 (UTC)
 * Merge and redirect to Shōjo Comic Yuu Watase --UltraMagnus (talk) 07:10, 26 September 2009 (UTC)
 * SOP for non-notable works (be they books or songs) is to instead redirect to the creator, in this case Yuu Watase. —Quasirandom (talk) 19:44, 25 September 2009 (UTC)
 * Apologies for my ignorance but, SOP? wp:SOP doesn't seem related --UltraMagnus (talk) 19:48, 25 September 2009 (UTC)
 * SOP = Standard Operating Procedure :) -- Collectonian  (talk · contribs) 00:08, 26 September 2009 (UTC)
 * Sorry, my corpspeak was showing through. As Collectonian says. —Quasirandom (talk) 00:15, 26 September 2009 (UTC)
 * Ok, thanks for that. --UltraMagnus (talk) 07:10, 26 September 2009 (UTC)
