Nagatachou Strawberry

 * ( [ delete] ) – (View AfD) (View log)

Unnotable manga series. Unlicensed and no significant coverage in reliable third party sources. Fails WP:BK and WP:MOS-AM. -- Collectonian  (talk · contribs) 18:08, 17 January 2009 (UTC)

 * Comment Licensed in Germany and it appears to be in Chinese as well, though I can't make out the publisher. Aside from those hints, though, I'm not finding much to indicate, let alone demonstrate, notability -- not even much buzz in the scanlation boards. I'm inclined to delete but will hold off !voting pending more research. —Quasirandom (talk) 20:54, 17 January 2009 (UTC)
 * Keep per WP:MOS-AM #6. 76.116.247.15 (talk) 21:26, 17 January 2009 (UTC)
 * Neither a manual of style or a WikiProject can establish notability criterion outside of the notability guidelines. --Farix (Talk) 13:36, 18 January 2009 (UTC)


 * Keep It was number 3 on the top 20 list for sales, for a major sales outlet. http://manlymanga.wordpress.com/2008/12/06/tokyopops-weekly-top-20-40-44/ Seems successful in Germany, but nothing out in English yet. Dream Focus (talk) 20:10, 18 January 2009 (UTC)
 * That is a blog, not a reliable source with no actual source claimed. Also, that is purely Tokyopop sales figures, which doesn't really speak to actual reception in Germany, just within their group of products (which isn't really that much)-- Collectonian  (talk · contribs) 20:30, 18 January 2009 (UTC)
 * It list its sources just fine. And the sales from one of the largest manga outlets in the world, is notable.  According to their wikipedia article, Tokyopop is huge. Dream Focus (talk) 20:34, 18 January 2009 (UTC)
 * No, it doesn't and it is a blog. Clearly failing WP:RS. And yes, Tokyopop is huge, Tokyopop Germany is not (hence it not having its own article). -- Collectonian  (talk · contribs) 20:36, 18 January 2009 (UTC)
