Star Wars Fanon Wiki (talk - history - links - logs)
Site does not seem to fulfill any of the criteria of Wookieepedia:Notability of fan projects, other than for content. The only argument I can see for this article's continued existence is to educate fanon-oriented users. However, the fanon article already does a good job of that. So why keep this policy-breaching article around? We can still link to SWFanon when necessary, but I do not think chronicling the site falls within the scope of Wookieepedia. --Imperialles 00:54, April 12, 2010 (UTC)
Keep
I see no reason why we should delete this page. The Fanon wiki has a large following and is a relatively large wiki. I mean, this page is a moderately popular Star Wars fan website, deleting this would almost be like deleting the articles on the Completely Unofficial Star Wars Encyclopedia, Jedi Council Forums, or even Wookieepedia. Bonbondoodle 01:13, April 12, 2010 (UTC)(Vote struck, reason: Per policy: Banned for sockpuppetry. -- Graestan(Talk) 02:04, April 12, 2010 (UTC))- Wrong. All three of your examples pass one or more of the recognition criteria of our policy. SWFanon does not. --Imperialles 01:16, April 12, 2010 (UTC)

- Delightful. A vanity page, really, anyhow. Graestan(Talk) 01:31, April 12, 2010 (UTC)
- No official or mainstream recognition, and the only evidence of fan recognition (TFN's link to them in their fan-fic forum) isn't sufficient for notability IMO. —Master Jonathan(Jedi Council Chambers) 01:39, April 12, 2010 (UTC)

- Nix then nix its article link from the fanon article, otherwise we'd have a circular redirect. Trak Nar Ramble on 05:49, April 12, 2010 (UTC)
