White Ninja Comics[edit]
Is this ninja-cruft or web-comic vanity? Or an encyclopedically noteworthy subject? 451 google hits [1] --GRider\talk 18:41, 8 Mar 2005 (UTC)
- Oppose This is hardly less worthy than Achewood or Men in Hats. There's even a Webcomics category. I see no reason whatsoever to delete this article.siafu 19:21, 8 Mar 2005 (UTC)
- Not only would you have to demonstrate that the "google test" has any merit when it comes to deleting wikipedia articles at all, but that it actually means something in this case. Searching for "white ninja" yields "about 2,940,000" results [2], and searching for "Achewood Comics" yields "about 67,800" [3]. The only reason its called "White Ninja Comics" instead of simply "White Ninja" is because www.whiteninja.com was taken.siafu 23:21, 8 Mar 2005 (UTC)
- Oppose I believe that this deserves an article as much as any other. Is it really any worse than having individual Homestar Runner character biographies? I think not. .FartInAirConditioner 17:33, 8 Mar 2005
- Delete individual webcomics would need to be very, very, very famous before they need articles in an encyclopedia. Andrew Lenahan - Starblind 23:22, Mar 8, 2005 (UTC)
- Space is not a concernsiafu 01:20, 9 Mar 2005 (UTC)
- Oppose White Ninja is already fairly famous. I agree with the comment about each Homestar Runner character getting an individual bio page. User:Red Dwarf 23:24, 8 Mar 2005 (UTC)
- Delete, this one's below the horizon, never mind others on WP which would be viable VfD candidates as well. Wyss 01:21, 9 Mar 2005 (UTC)
- Delete, just under the bar of notability, comicruft. Megan1967 02:42, 9 Mar 2005 (UTC)
- Keep. This is a fairly well known webcomic. burnt in effigy 05:08, Mar 9, 2005 (UTC)
- Delete non-notable webcomic (and there are far too many of those) Radiant! 09:02, Mar 9, 2005 (UTC)
- Oppose This is an amazing web-comic which creates a character that blurs the lines of good and evil, making it hilarious! --AllenPoe 19:16, 10 Mar 2005 (UTC)
- Very weak keep. I find this webcomic annoying at best (and I would generally rather it didn't have an article), but it has a fairly decent Alexa rank for a webcomic (60,825). -Aranel ("Sarah") 02:45, 11 Mar 2005 (UTC)
- Delete, nn ninjacruft. ComCat 02:25, 12 Mar 2005 (UTC)
- Keep and clean up. A notable enough webcomic. --Matteh (talk) 20:55, 13 Mar 2005 (UTC)
- Keep for sure! Write something a little more 'interesting' about it and it's good, IMO - this comic is quite famous and refered to - not to mention it being amazingly funny, really. JeroenStout 00:50, 20 Mar 2005 (UTC)
- Strong Keep (cleanup needed, however). It's not my cuppa, really, but White Ninja is quite well-known in the webcomic community, and easily clears the WikiProject Webcomics alternate inclusion guidelines hurdle. Toss this, and you might as well toss 3/4 of the webcomic articles out there (and yes, I know that there are some folks who would like to do just that). --Ray Radlein 10:09, Mar 22, 2005 (UTC)
- KEEP, but add more information and clean up - While WHITE NINJA is not really my favoite webcomic, it is however pretty well known in the internet comics, and pretty famous. I'd say keep it. unsigned vote by 220.107.83.86 (talk • contribs)
Its printed in a newspaper... it's more then a webcomic.
