Masters of Doom: The Animated Series[edit]

Flashcruft. No reliable sources. Not-notable. Original research. The biggest claim to fame it makes is winning "daily 3rd" and having gotten good reviews from newgrounds posters (followed by link to said forum posts). Delete - Motor (talk) 11:47, 12 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

If you guys would have taken the time to actually READ the description of the cartoon on Newgrounds, you'll clearly see it has a 3rd place award. I'm not exacly sure what that whole "biggest claim" remark is supposed to mean. Whether it's just some feeble scoff to get a quick chuckle, or ignorance induced by not reading details, one thing remains: This article has proper citations. Two of the people lampooned in MODTAS (John Romero and Tom Hall) have spoken to the animators via e-mail, and have mentioned the cartoon on the front pages of their websites.
There's no need for anyone to claim the content of the article is all bogus material. Nobody in the right mind would actually take the time to create an entire Wikipedia article just to lie about getting respect from some video game creators.

Comment, NOTE: this IP has just vandalised another AFD. No-one said it was bogus. Just not notable, and not reliably referenced... in short flashcruft that does not justify an article. - Motor (talk) 12:28, 14 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]
  • This is Mike Lombardo, the co-creator of the cartoon. We recieved word from John Romero, David Kushner and Tom Hall saying they liked the cartoon. John Romero and David Kushner both put the cartoon on their websites, as did Planet Doom. This cartoon is notable, especially in relation to the wiki article on the book, the game and the creators themselves. John Romero even edited and added trivia and facts to the wiki article, check the history. All of the facts have been verified and citations and links have been added to verify them.— Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.82.235.137 (talk • contribs)
  • Delete Hardly notable, riddled with original research and hardly any avenue for constructive references.--Auger Martel 12:06, 17 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]
