I searched and searched and can only find a handful of references to this term, all of which make it clear that Smith uses it, but nothing to establish that it's notable in and of itself. ~TPW 11:52, 7 October 2011 (UTC)

 * Keep 60,000+ google hits, including one from the very reliable Guardian, which I've added as reference. Took me about 30 seconds to find. Must be many, many more.Tigerboy1966 (talk) 21:44, 7 October 2011 (UTC)
 * Delete: No concrete evidence that the fictional universe meets the general notability guideline or that it has reception or significance in a real-world context to presume that it can be more than an indiscriminate collection of information. Google hits are not evidence of notability. Jfgslo (talk) 07:28, 9 October 2011 (UTC)
 * Comment I'm not sure what you are asking for here. There's nothing in GNG about fictional creations having to have "significance in a real-world context" (the topic obviously has "reception"). I've already added The Guardian. The subject has also been covered in the New York Times, Total Film and many other good news sources.Tigerboy1966 (talk) 18:12, 9 October 2011 (UTC)


 * Keep and add Tigerboy's references. Failing that, Merge to Kevin Smith's bio. Jclemens (talk) 02:06, 10 October 2011 (UTC)


 * Delete fails WP:GNG. Stuartyeates (talk) 08:58, 11 October 2011 (UTC)


 * Keep per Tigerboy, and with his references. I think the subject easily passes WP:GNG.  Seven feature films, with all their associated press and other sources, take place in the View Askewniverse, I think that qualifies it as notable. Ella Plantagenet (talk) 20:53, 11 October 2011 (UTC)


 * Keep I echo Jclemens suggestions. Traumerei (talk) 07:36, 12 October 2011 (UTC)
