[edit] Pixel cars

Pixel cars (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs) – (View log)

The following was left on this article's talk page by Interiot:

I removed the prod because its notability is at the least unclear. I thought proding it before too, until I ran across these things:
  • There are 4 different language versions of the article on wikipedia (this en one, de:Pixel cars, fr:Mangacars, pl:Mangacars), with no real similarity between them, and the others are longer than the enwiki one
  • Googling for "manga-cars" gets 130k hits, "pixel-cars" gets 55k hits.
  • While reliable, non-trivial, independent sources don't jump out at you when you do the searches, what you do see is a range of forums dedicated to the concept (10k members, 2k members, 2k members, 1.5k members)
The subject doesn't really personally appeal to me (at all), but the above makes me think it's somewhat of a widespread concept, and that it should be put through AfD at least. --Interiot 03:48, 26 January 2007 (UTC)

  • A very commonly misused term, without any reliable sources nor definitions. People who practice this are lifeless IMHO anyway. --=='''[[User:E-Magination''' ==]] 16:41, 28 January 2007 (UTC)
 Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so that consensus may be reached

  • Keep - I don't know much about this, but a quick search seems to show that it is valid and notable. MightyAtom 06:41, 8 February 2007 (UTC)

  • Delete unless sourced per above searches. A google search confirms existence, but doesn't provide the multiple, non-trivial thir-party sources required for WP:N. Addhoc 12:48, 9 February 2007 (UTC)
  • Delete as per above. My loger explanation was victim of an edit conflict. Tikiwont 12:57, 9 February 2007 (UTC)
  • Delete & redirect to pixel art, given proper context an article is unnecessary ˉˉanetode╦╩ 13:09, 10 February 2007 (UTC)
