I do not believe this article meets the
general notability guidelines. I have been keeping track of this subject for a while hoping to be able to create an article on it someday, but only one reliable source has ever covered it (that being Bloody Disgusting, twice: [1] [2]). Nearly all of the citations currently used in the article are primary sources linking to the webcomic itself, Tapastic, Tumblr, Youtube, etc. There is also this blog post, which is not a reliable source and this top list, which is not reliable or notable either. Seeing as Erma does not meet the general notability guidelines, this article should be deleted. It is unfortunate, seeing as how much work seems to have gone into it. ~Mable (chat) 09:59, 22 December 2017 (UTC)

- weak keep two good articles on the topic in what seems to be a reliable source. The name makes it hard to search, but I too am not turning much up. Very popular comic on imgur and reddit, I'd expect to see more. Hobit (talk) 16:30, 23 December 2017 (UTC)

- @Maplestrip: I think he means because there are two articles. Yours Sincerely, HarrisonSteam (talk) 12:47, 24 December 2017 (UTC)
- Yep. It's borderline, but both articles are pretty detailed. Technically qualifies as "multiple" and there is enough there to build an article around. But it isn't an obvious case. A !vote to delete is certainly justifiable. Hobit (talk) 19:56, 24 December 2017 (UTC)

- Delete not enough coverage in reliable sources, fails WP:N. Also, probably WP:TOOSOON. Sources are supposed to be intellectually independent of the others. This means sources are supposed to be from various publishers. Not multiple sources from the same publisher. Create this article later, when more sources emerge. ---Steve Quinn (talk) 07:44, 28 December 2017 (UTC)]

- Delete - only coverage in one RS, meaning it does not meet the GNG, and there do not seem to be any suitable redirect targets. Would be a viable article once/if more RSs discussing the comic in detail emerge.--talk 16:24, 1 January 2018 (UTC)]
- Delete for insufficient coverage. I agree with Maple that The Prose isn't reliable. If additional sources become available, I don't oppose re-creation. Argento Surfer (talk) 14:31, 4 January 2018 (UTC)
- Weak Delete I don't see enough coverage to meet GNG; the Bloody Disgusting links aren't enough for me. This feels like more of a TVTropes topic. π, ν) 17:53, 4 January 2018 (UTC)]
