Listening to 11.975MHz[edit]

This webcomic has appeared on Wikipedia since December 2004, you can find the webcomic here. For a website which has been established for 3 years, you'd expect there to be more than 53 Google hits, and maybe a better Alexa rank than 2.8 million. This is not a notable webcomic. - Hahnch e n 00:04, 8 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

weak keep I'm not sure if its fair to measure notability for this kind of subject matter with Alexia and Google. Roodog2k 13:38, 8 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Keep per Roodog2k. --S iva1979^{Talk to me} 15:15, 8 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Keep per nom. This webcomic has a large readership from the US Marine Corps, the non-North American anime community, and others who have direct links to the site. Concur with Roodog2k above that making a decision based on Alexa/Google is a poor argument. Wohali 19:16, 8 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- "Keep per nom"? Do you realise that "per nom" means "for the same reasons as the nominator gave"? The nominator voted to delete, you cannot "keep per nom". Stifle (talk) 14:51, 11 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete per nom. If the site has an Alexa ranking pushing 3 million, and Google hasn't heard of it, the evidence is lacking that it has a "large readership" within the USMC or any other community. Occam's Razor suggests that it just doesn't have a particularly large readership, and is in any event NN. RGTraynor 19:40, 12 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Delete. Not just Alexa and Google. There needs to be a positive reason why this comic is notable. None has been proffered. The "large readership" claim is unsupported. NTK 19:53, 8 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Delete, does not appear to meet WP:WEB. -- Dragonfiend 21:54, 8 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Keep, per Wohali. --awh (Talk) 00:09, 9 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Note also that a search for Listening to 11.975 does provide about 675 results. --awh (Talk) 00:12, 9 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- That's the exact same link as I gave in the nomination, and gives 53 unique hits and 289 non unique hits. - Hahnch e n 08:45, 9 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]
