Twisted Tales (book series)

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

I came across this while making a disambiguation page for the generic term of "Twisted Tales". The series is a spin-off of the larger franchise Horrible Histories and while the overall franchise has notability, this individual series does not. It was re-released by Scholastic under a few different names, which I'm grouping into this AfD because they're mostly the same article. I'd originally added this to the overall article for Horrible Histories and redirected there, but these actions were reverted and I was advised to take this to AfD. Notability is WP:NOTINHERITED by the parent franchise or the publisher being notable and I can't find enough coverage to really show where each different incarnation of the books merits an article at this point in time or ever. It exists, but existing is not notability and not every book series needs to have an entry- as much as I'd like to have it otherwise. Tokyogirl79 (｡◕‿◕｡)   09:49, 2 June 2014 (UTC)


 * At most this could all be merged into one large article entitled List of Horrible Histories books and spin-offs (since there are multiple spin-off series with articles that have issues with notability and sourcing), if space is a concern. Individual articles? Not so much. Tokyogirl79 (｡◕‿◕｡)   09:58, 2 June 2014 (UTC)
 * Note while we're at it, this might be a good opportunity to help clear out the clutter in the Spin-offs section of the HH template. Can we add some of the other articles to this AFD to suss out their notability simultaneously?--Coin945 (talk) 10:08, 2 June 2014 (UTC)
 * Sure- I didn't know if it'd be appropriate to add them all here since they're all in kind of a wide range. Tokyogirl79 (｡◕‿◕｡)   10:32, 2 June 2014 (UTC)
