Saijō no Meii

 * – ( View AfD View log  •  )

No coverage by reliable third-party source. Article is primary a plot summary with very little real-world context. Attempts to redirect the article to the author's article have failed as an IP author disputes the redirect without giving a reason. Fails WP:BK and WP:NOTE. IP editor has previous declared an assumption of bad faith directly at me over a series of recent prods that I wasn't involve with other than review them for legitimacy. and demands that the article be sent to AfD before letting the redirect stand. —Farix (t &#124; c) 15:49, 22 June 2010 (UTC)

 * Keep Its a bestselling manga, plus Gwern's search gets results.  D r e a m Focus  20:22, 22 June 2010 (UTC)
 * Being a "bestseller" doesn't make something notable. Frequently, bestsellers are not covered by reliable third-party source, which is why it has been repeatedly rejected as a notability critiera at WP:BK. —Farix (t &#124; c) 04:16, 23 June 2010 (UTC)
 * It was rejected from the guideline page where no more than a handful of people ever show up to argue. It has been accepted as a reason in many other AFD that ended in keep.   D r e a m Focus  12:38, 23 June 2010 (UTC)
 * Only by people who don't know the difference between notability, which is based on coverage by third-party sources, and popularity, which has consistently been rejected as an inclusion criteria. —Farix (t &#124; c) 13:00, 23 June 2010 (UTC)


 * Delete - fails the notability guideline for books - entries in bestseller lists are entirely irrelevant. Article has serious just-a-plot issues. We can redirect to Takashi Hashiguchi later if it is seen as fitting. Claritas §  13:09, 23 June 2010 (UTC)
 * Delete Not enough relevant coverage found to pass either the WP:GNG or the WP:BK. No licensor found in English, French, Spanish, Italian & German. All i found is an Indonesian publisher. --KrebMarkt 18:20, 26 June 2010 (UTC)
