Mustang Ironheart

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

The main character of a seemingly completely non-notable series of comics and films. There are no sources being used in the article aside from IMDB and the issues of the comics themselves. Searching for sources came up with nothing substantial that could be used as references. I also tried to look into the comics' publisher "Rare Underground Comics", and found that this series is the only thing listed under their credits, which leads me to suspect that these books were self-published. As far as I can tell, this character/comic series does not come close to meeting the requirements of the WP:GNG. Rorshacma (talk) 19:45, 29 April 2019 (UTC)

 * Comment Probably just a coincidence that the supposed author's name "Ekim Htiek" is just "Keith Mike" spelled backward, and that the low-budget DVD release credits director Keith Mackney and actor Mike Treveloni. Couldn't possibly be that a couple of people made up a story to promote a self-produced low-budget DVD. Or could it? Bakazaka (talk) 21:05, 29 April 2019 (UTC)
 * Comment - The utter implausibility of most of what is written in this article definitely makes me think that the vast majority of it is WP:MADEUP. But, as you said, the DVD does seem to have existed at one point, so I felt I couldn't just tag it as a hoax without an AFD discussion. Rorshacma (talk) 22:12, 29 April 2019 (UTC)
 * I agree that AfD is the right choice, rather than G3 or A11. Bakazaka (talk) 22:37, 29 April 2019 (UTC)
 * Delete per WP:V. The DVD(s) existed at some point, and the college paper once had a story on these two low-budget filmmakers, but that's not enough to establish notability, and the rest is traceable only through user-created sites and copies of the Wikipedia article, meaning that it fails WP:V. A newspaper archive search came up empty as well. Bakazaka (talk) 21:38, 29 April 2019 (UTC)
 * Delete - I'm unable to confirm any of the listed graphic novels exist. Argento Surfer (talk) 12:40, 30 April 2019 (UTC)
 * Delete - does not meet WP:GNG - no references to independent reliable sources - Epinoia (talk) 21:57, 5 May 2019 (UTC)
