[edit] Picasso-kun no tantei note
This item lacked notability; 1 hit on Google excluding Wikipedia. Samuel CurtisShinichian-Hirokian-- TALK·CONTRIBS 18:34, 8 February 2007 (UTC)
- I declare conflict of interest: the writer of this article, User:1523, have disputed with me with the inclusion of some of the issues in this article (namely the alleged plagiarism of Detective Conan from this novel) into Case Closed last May. I have to say that half of this article was devouted to this plagiarism claim, in which I would consider as baseless, but my AfD is not related to this. --Samuel CurtisShinichian-Hirokian-- TALK·CONTRIBS 18:43, 8 February 2007 (UTC)

- I got more than twice as many hits outside of Wikipedia, and I think there are probably more out there. I have a hard time feeling that this should be deleted... it's an in-print series of comics with a real publisher. If there are issues with original research (perhaps the statements on Case Closed could be sourced, but they aren't now), that is a content dispute rather than a case for deletion. I also have a hard time believing that User:1523 (who isn't a native English speaker and wasn't informed of the deletion debate) is at any kind of fault here. This is a standalone series and to create an article for a standalone series is definitely not a content fork.

- Comment I just checked WP:N out, but I couldn't find the rule that the articles need English ghits. Well, you'll get about 280 ghits in Japanese, and this series is commercially published ([1] [2] [3]). I can give sources about plagiarism as well, but he says his AfD is not related to this, so I refrain from doing that. --1523 14:53, 10 February 2007 (UTC)
- Comment: Please read WP:BK. --Samuel CurtisShinichian-Hirokian-- TALK·CONTRIBS 15:22, 11 February 2007 (UTC)
- Comment I checked that out too. So what is your point? You can find Picasso series on The Online Public Access Catalog of National Diet Library, Tokyo. --1523 22:57, 11 February 2007 (UTC)
- Merge to Yoshihiko Funazaki. The existence of the series is not disputed. But the notability of the book really has not been firmly established. Combining the two would do no harm. --Kunzite 02:03, 12 February 2007 (UTC)
- Merge per Kunzite. This would be useful information for the author's article and the debate here has failed to prove notability rather than point to it. My feeling is that the information should be retained in some form, so since there is a good target for a merge, that makes sense. Dekimasuが... 11:57, 13 February 2007 (UTC)
