Trannies (Transformers)

 * - (View AfD) (View log)

Article about a self-produced on-line one man awards show for the Transformers community. No sign whatsoever of reliable third-party coverage. I doubt that much can be found outside the transformers community itself which does not exactly control reliable publications. Of course Googling for "Trannies" is useless, unless... ahem, unless your looking for a different kind of tranny. Here's the result of a more specific search.

 * Delete Does not have any relavance outside the transformer community and cannot even assert notibility within it.--155.144.251.120 04:44, 18 January 2007 (UTC)
 * My granny would sometimes listen to her tranny. "The transformer community" (?) could perhaps create its own wiki for stuff like this "awards show"; as for WP, delete as Pascal.Tesson suggests. -- Hoary 05:49, 18 January 2007 (UTC)
 * Comment' Interestingly, you'd think the page was created yesterday by an unexperienced user but as it turns out, it was created back in the prehistory of Wikipedia by who's now an admin and one of Wikipedia's busiest editors. But we all make rookie mistakes! :-) Pascal.Tesson 06:23, 18 January 2007 (UTC)
 * Yeah, I was surprised by that too! Must be a bit of a "What was I thinking?" sort of situation.  Of course, in all fairness, back then our notability/verifiability guidelines were sparse and poorly enforced, and a lot of articles like this were being created.

 * Delete Cannot assert notibility. Fails WP:WEB etc.--Dacium 06:56, 18 January 2007 (UTC)
 * I would suggest merging to Transformers community but I don't think we have such an article. Therefore I have to say weak delete as not notable enough. J I P  | Talk 07:46, 18 January 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete per the holy trinity: WP:WEB, WP:V, WP:RS. Not only that, but it stopped in 2003, so no future notability is forthcoming either. Andrew Lenahan -  St ar bli nd  13:05, 18 January 2007 (UTC)
