Given that we don't have any for his field ([[Wikipedia:Notability
(fiction)]] doesn't really cover it and [[Wikipedia:Notability (web)]]
only mentions a small part of it in passing) it seems not unreasonable
that he does not understand them.
That puzzles me, as I'd think that if Scott
McCloud can't understand our
comic guidelines, there's no hope that your average comic fan will be
able to get them. And unless we're restricting AfD and article creation
to information architects and people with Master of Library Science
degrees (which I'm assuming is what you mean by experts in data
sorting), that seems like a big minus to me.
I would like those people to go over our guidelines yes.
