The Print Workshop

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Non-notable shop which existed for four years. This is actually not really about David Ruff's workshop at all; about one paragraph, it seems, is actually about the shop- the rest is about Ruff, his works, his friends, and the works they illustrated. Notability, of course, is not inherited; and there are insufficient sources to suggest that the shop has any independent notabilty. There is little coverage with either WP:DEPTH or WP:PERSISTENCE, most of the mentions being passing. A possible option, of course, is redirect / merge to David Ruff. &mdash; O Fortuna!   Imperatrix mundi.  12:53, 31 March 2017 (UTC)

 * Merge into article about David Ruff. I agree--this is actually about Ruff, not the print shop. In fact it's actually a better article than the original about him. Print Workshop isn't notable enough to stand on it's own.Glendoremus (talk) 19:48, 8 April 2017 (UTC)

 * Redirect to David Ruff; anything useful can be picked up from the article history. I don't see a reason to merge, as the article is largely an unreferenced essay and lists one source. The rest appears to be original research. K.e.coffman (talk) 02:09, 19 April 2017 (UTC)
