This doesn't appear to be a notable con. It only has minor local coverage, if anything and doesn't appear to have much else in the way of coverage outside of fanblogs. Despite having several notable names appear, it just doesn't have the coverage. CUPIDICAE💕 19:18, 28 February 2022 (UTC)

- Keep A Google search provides plenty of reliable sources. Although it could still be argued that coverage is primarily local, this does not mean the subject is not notable, and there is so much coverage that I do not think it justifies deleting the article.

- is basically directly from the con itself, the second is an actual press release and the last is a standard "do this this weekend" that every major city publishes. It's not coverage. CUPIDICAE💕 20:34, 28 February 2022 (UTC)
- Delete: Everything I'm seeing runs afoul of WP:ROUTINE, and sounds like they're all coming off of press releases. Nothing by way of significant coverage that actually is what's necessary to meet the GNG. Ravenswing 21:08, 28 February 2022 (UTC)
- Keep There is more than enough credible sources to back up this article, not to mention the article has been fixed up greatly since it was tagged for deletion. This convention is more notable than many other small conventions that are listed on Wikipedia. If this one were to get deleted, then all of those would have to go as well.

- Would you care to identify the exact sources you claim meet the significant coverage precept of the GNG? Ravenswing 19:47, 7 March 2022 (UTC)
- Delete, minor convention series and all coverage is mere mention or regurgitating press releases. Stifle (talk) 11:58, 7 March 2022 (UTC)
