Deadlinks to Thai language websites archive examinations even with translate do not have sufficient GNG passage. Also reads like an advert. Etzedek24 ^{(I'll talk at ya) (Check my track record)} 15:29, 26 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Comment It's kid's book so it's harder to quantify its GNG (likely coverage would be in mom's or kid's media, not mainstream ones). Here are some news that I found. [1] [2] --Lerdsuwa (talk) 16:23, 26 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Weak keep, largely because most of the nominating statement doesn't make much sense to me. Deletion is not cleanup (although I lean toward deletionism); dead links and non-English sources can still meet WP:V, and a promotional tone can be rewritten to meet WP:NPOV. The subject may meet WP:NCOMIC for a series. Miniapolis 17:08, 26 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

I felt like I pretty clearly said that the sources I looked at using translate and archive.org did not pass GNG. Etzedek24 ^{(I'll talk at ya) (Check my track record)} 18:19, 26 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, and I linked to the subject-specific guideline; sometimes WP:GNG is too broad. I was concerned about your other caveats (dead links and POV). Miniapolis 23:59, 26 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

I mean, I wrote that notability guideline and still don't think that it qualifies. Etzedek24 ^{(I'll talk at ya) (Check my track record)} 00:41, 27 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

I didn't realize that. Since you're a better judge of comic notability than I am, I'm changing my vote to delete; sorry for the deprod. Miniapolis 17:57, 27 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Weak delete. I was only able to identify sources similar to Lerdsuwa's, and IMO they don't satisfy the GNG. The subject would warrant a paragraph or a section in an article about the publisher, but I don't think it has real-world notability to stand alone as an article. --Paul_012 (talk) 14:06, 16 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]
