Archive of refused requests edit

  • Editors assessing and fulfilling/refusing requests should update this page when a request is refused.
  • Items in this list should only be created and removed from it if the indicated issues can be resolved or shown to be incorrect.
  • This archive is not static! Series that fail notability at one time may pass it in the future, and editors are encouraged to periodically search for new signs of notability for the series on this page. This is not limited to requests here, even series which had articles that were deleted for failing notability can eventually pass it.

0-9 edit

A edit

  • A Gun Report as it won't meet WP:BK even it's Katsuhiro Ōtomo (Akira) first publication. Katsuhiro Ōtomo article has no manga section which is uber wrong.
  • A Philosopher's Alchemy as won't meet WP:BK even if it seems licensed in english but no RS ext link available in the web
  • Ai Hime - Ai to Himegoto (Kako Mitsuki manga) as it won't meet WP:BK, ANN page won't do and no licensor in Germany, France & Spain.:
  • Akira Club as part of Akira (manga);
  • Animal Channel (アニマルチャンネル) by Shiori Yuwa (佑羽栞) as this two volumes series won't meet WP:BK; no licensor in Germany, France, Spain & Italy.
  • Anime outside Japan The anime equivalent of Manga outside Japan. Could be based on the last three sections of the anime article. Refused as beyond the capabilities of the sole requested article department (even if we would like to do it) and suggested strongly that request of that level should be made at WT:ANIME where it could gather consensus and support.
  • Ankoku Seiun Award - That for Science Fiction in Japan. Not withing our scope. According to that they are alternate humorous awards based on the official Seiun Award. Ankoku Seiun Award homepage. I decline the request :p

Decline the request for now. No ANN. No Japanese wikipedia article. No licensor in France, Germany, Spain & Italy. Can't assert notability from a publisher "samples".

J edit

K edit

  • Kagijin (Original title: 鍵人ーカギジンー) by Yasuki Tanaka. Shueisha and serialized in Weekly Shounen Jump. Only 5 chapters + 1 one-shot(pilote chapter) out so far. ANN news but no ANN profile. Way too soon to tell if it's notable. As August 14, 2009, no licensor outside Japan because the first tankobon isn't even released there.
  • Kids Joker 6 vols series by Maki Fujita. Fail WP:BK. Dropped by ADV ANN old review. No licensor in France, Germany, Italy & Spain.
  • Kimi no Shiroi Hane (君の白い羽根) 1 vol series by Yuki Suetsugu ANN. Fail WP:BK. No licensor in UK/US, France, Germany, Italy & Spain.

  • Kurogane Pukapuka Tai a yuri romance manga. 1 vol-ongoing series by Shinsuke Kurihashi. No ANN profile but import review. Not licensed in English, French, German & Italian. Too soon to tell if it will be notable.
  • Kyonko (キョン子) a female version of Kyon from The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya. Too in-topic. Unnotable as google search links to non-RS fan sites. I'll leave this for a second opinion. "Second opinion": the requested articles section don't handle anime/manga related character specific article and in the Kyonko case, its notability is not asserted as it is a non-official doujinshi gender swap character. If you want a such article discuss it in the The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya page and bring enough evidences of notability to convince people there.
