ZineWiki
AfDs for this article: 
 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Non-notable wiki with no obvious reliable sources anywhere. The page seems to be a combination of WP:G11 or WP:G10 depending on which iteration you look at. I chose G10, but realise this is more fitting the spirit of the policy rather than the letter, and would defer to AfD if challenged. That has now happened, so I'm coming here.

 * Delete per WP:BOLLOCKS. Literally, get rid of this thing: three sources, each a passing mention. Fails WP:NWEB. ——  SerialNumber  54129  11:31, 15 July 2019 (UTC)
 * Delete. Reads like a personal blog, but not even a good one. Troll magnet. Martinevans123 (talk) 11:52, 15 July 2019 (UTC)
 * Delete per above. This article just does not die. Its a WP:NWEB violation. AmericanAir88(talk) 13:38, 15 July 2019 (UTC)
 * Delete Per What Wikipedia is not, WP:BOLLOCKS, WP:GNG and WP:NWEB. No place for such article in Wikipedia. CASSIOPEIA(talk) 14:02, 15 July 2019 (UTC)

 * Actually, it's at least four. The article mentions .  That did not exist at the time of the 2nd AFD discussion.

 * The article also says "Other media sponsors of ZineWiki include Broken Pencil...." so that's not really an independent enough source that can show notability. It doesn't even explain what a zine is. <b style="color:#7F007F">Ritchie333</b> <sup style="color:#7F007F">(talk) <sup style="color:#7F007F">(cont)  11:16, 16 July 2019 (UTC)

 * Delete "To write with a broken pencil is pointless." The Broken Pencil website even talks about the results of the prior AfDs. Anyway, it can now be shown that no independent reliable sources exist that mention ZineWiki in depth. Hence, the article should be deleted. GeoffreyT2000 (talk) 21:25, 17 July 2019 (UTC)
 * Delete reference is too narrow. Barca (talk) 12:12, 18 July 2019 (UTC)

 * Speedy Delete and close I am surprised it had passed two AFDs before, very clearly non notable Wiki, lacks RS. Meeanaya (talk) 04:05, 20 July 2019 (UTC)
 * Delete Non notable site. Not enough sources. Must be deleted. Agree with all above! -- User:Vermont (talk) 10:16, 20 July 2019 (UTC)
 * Delete the article because it's not well sourced and notable subject.Forest90 (talk) 12:19, 22 July 2019 (UTC)
