Personally, I think a book that sells 100,000 copies in a single week (from one of the links posted by NocturneNoir) is notable.  While I know that there wasn't consensus on  to add sales figures as a criteria, the reasons against doing so seemed to be that people could site deceptive statistics (e.g. high placing in a sales chart in a tiny country, or sales figures inflated by the publisher), and not that high sales or a high sales ranking didn't indicate notability.  I don't think these sales figures are deceptive (Japan isn't a tiny country, and the publisher would have to be very stupid to ship vastly too many copies by the third volume of the series).  I also find it odd a comparable ranking from the same sorce (Oricon, which ANN is citing) would be considered as evidence of notibility for a song but not for a manga
