Ok if you
cant do that why are all webcomics notable?
Because Wikipedia has no space requirements. We have plenty of room to
include all webcomics. To choose to include some, but not others, would
allow us to make a statement about what is worthwhile and what isn't. It
would violate NPOV. Further, the only people who are going to come
across
the article are those who are specifically looking
for it. Keeping the
article in the encyclopedia provides useful information to those people,
and
doesn't hurt anyone else. If any webcomics are
notable, then all
webcomics
are notable.
By your logic: If any people are notable, then all people are notable.
By my logic all people are notable, yes.
Excuse me while I write articles on Anthony DiPierro, Justin Cormack,
and the rest.
Notability is different from verifiability (and no original research), and
in any case non-famous (living) people have a legal right to privacy. So if
you can find public, verifiable information about me or Justin in
respectable secondary sources, I personally think it should be included in
Wikipedia.
Can you find public, verifiable information about these webcomics in
respectable secondary sources?
