Non-notable fansite. Ref is for an award won by the owner's separate business, not the website. Site was nominated for an award, but did not win. Argento Surfer (talk) 15:51, 24 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete. Much of the justification for keeping the article on the talk page centers around the site itself being potentially considered a reliable source in the comic book community and has tons of hits. This falls under WP:POPULARITY, which doesn't count towards notability. I'd also like to state that being a potentially RS for Wikipedia articles or for various communities doesn't automatically mean that you/it merits an article. For example, if a top editor for a major newspaper had a blog or personal website, that would be usable for a RS in most cases but that doesn't mean that the editor themselves or their website would merit an article. I did a search and there's just nothing out there that actually covers this site in any detail. It didn't win the award it was nominated for and for that to give notability, they'd have to have won the award. Just being nominated means nothing, especially since it looks like anyone can nominate something if I'm reading that correctly. Since it's received no in-depth coverage from independent and reliable sources, nor received a major award of any kind, there's really no choice other than to delete it.Tokyogirl79 (talk) 09:39, 25 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]

- Delete - There's a mention in School Library Journal April 1, 2011, but that seems to be about it. Delete per Tokyogirl79. -- Uzma Gamal (talk) 08:55, 6 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]
