The result was Redirect to serial. Redirects are cheap, and there's no compelling case for deleting a "possibly relevant" redirect. Cheers, Wily D 13:28, 10 July 2007 (UTC)

Live novel

 * – (View AfD) (View log)

The term has been dreamed up. I can't find any evidence that people actually use it from a Google search. There are also hardly any articles that link to this one, suggesting that no notable "live novel" has been produced - a fact that makes one question whether or not the term, itself, is even notable Misterdiscreet 06:25, 1 July 2007 (UTC)
 * Redirect to serial, and if that page gets split into sub-articles, redirect to serial novel. The concept of a "live novel" is an old medium in new clothing. Shalom Hello 14:06, 1 July 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete falls into WP:MADEUP. No evidence of notability for the term given.  All three references do not even mention the term, let alone assert its notability.  Tdmg 23:49, 5 July 2007 (UTC)

 * Redirect to serial and merge anything useful. NawlinWiki 19:13, 9 July 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete. Since there are no reliable sources, and per WP:NEO there are clearly no references that discuss the use of the term 'live novel', I think there's not even a case for a redirect. There's no way to tell if any of the info in the article is true. Some people write novels; in turn some of them decide to publish on the internet. What else can be reliably said?   None of the three web sites mentioned seems to use the term 'live novel,' which was also noticed by a commenter above. Wikipedia is not for things made up in school one day.
