This is a combined nomination for Armageddicon and Anime Punch!, two low-key, poorly attended conventions organised by the Animate! OSU anime club (speedily deleted a very short while ago for failing CSD A-7: Unremarkable people or groups). If the group is deemed unsuitable for a Wikipedia article, where do the events the organise stand? Saberwyn - The Zoids Expansion Project 08:25, 28 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete per nom. If the convention is not notable, neither are these. Just zis  Guy, you know? ^[T]/_[C] AfD? 12:23, 28 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]

• Comment As a representative of Anime Punch/ Armageddicon I would like to give my two cents on the issue.
  I think considering that club pages are not acceptable, the events of those pages are clearly not valid either. For that reason, deleting the Anime Punch page is perfectly acceptable.
  
  At the same time, I feel that the Armageddicon page should remain intact as it is a separate event that is staffed only in part by the Animate! OSU club; and although it is still young, has notable aspects to it within the realm of conventions. Considering the number of on wikipedia other conventions that have articles, I do not think it would be inappropriate for Armageddicon to continue to exist. --69.133.7.146 00:31, 29 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]

• Comment I agree with the representative from Anime Punch and feel that this con should recieve coverage on Wikipedia, because other small conventions such as ikasucon (for example) are listed. On the other hand, it is unecessary for there to be two articles for what appears to be one anime convention. Instead of deleting these two articles I suggest that it should be merged into one article (like: Anime Punch: The Armigeddicon ), just like the how text box on the Armigeddicon page reads.--Neilworms 00:34, 3 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

• Comment for the representative of Anime Punch: I have speedily deleted the three articles by association; if the convention becomes notable enough in itself, you can of course recreate it, though I'd probably wait until it's not so young and can be shown to be notable and popular by some independent means (for example, coverage in a local newspaper, citing attendance figures). Otherwise it will be most surely be nominated for deletion again. --Pablo D. Flores (Talk) 13:06, 3 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
