thread_title: Where is Captain Unreliable?

message: Someone has marked the Buster Gonad article for deletion. Use the hyperlink and you'll see what I mean. Deleting the Buster Gonad article would be a mistake. In my opinion it should be left as is, along with all the other Viz cartoon articles. Nabokov (talk) 19:14, 14 January 2008 (UTC)
thread_title: Delete Buster Gonad Article?

message: Sadly, I can't recall many details other than that it involved the traditional visit of two children to the countryside where their uncle, naturally enough, farmed vibrating goats with arse-shaped faces. I seem to remember that a cliff-top rescue was carried out. A work of genius. GerryK1 (talk) 15:25, 9 September 2008 (UTC)
thread_title:  What about the masterly one-off Vibrating bum-faced goats?

Since I became I a father I have wanted to get a t-shirt with that frame printed on it...  —Preceding unsigned comment added by Danjafari (talk • contribs) 01:04, 2 July 2009 (UTC)

Pretty certain he made more than one appearance in Viz.

thread_title:  Phantom of the Opera 

message: This entry says "His name probably derives from Wavy Gravy." There's no citation and it seems very unlikely as Wavy Gravy is largely unknown in the UK. Pretty much all the search results I got trying to link the are either this wikipedia page or a version of the wavy gravy one which mentions Ravy Davey. Any thoughts - or remove? 94.172.126.123 (talk) 13:36, 21 April 2012 (UTC)

message: I believe characters such as Victorian Dad, The Modern Parents should be merged as they are lacking in a real demonstration of notability or third person sources. Dwanyewest (talk) 17:38, 18 January 2014 (UTC)

thread_title:  New Merger Proposal 

message: Request received at Merger Request Noticeboard to merge Rat Boy; Raffles, the Gentleman Thug; into the List of Viz comic strips article.  Rationale: notability, non-sourced for years.  Comments are welcome below. GenQuest "Talk to Me" 18:25, 26 April 2014 (UTC)
replies: text: See the comments already above. Why did you remove all the references from RatBoy?  Andy Dingley (talk) 20:50, 26 April 2014 (UTC)
replies: text: Prepping for the mergers, which I assumed were going to happen rather quickly.  There have been no attempts on reliable sourcing of these articles in 8+ years of existence, which, for me—working here with a focus on mergers and the merging of articles—usually indicates that no one cares about the article, which itself usually indicates a lack of any notability for a stand-alone encyclopedia article.  The 'references' were removed because literary works can't be cited for themselves (as that is not considered RS).  GenQuest "Talk to Me" 17:52, 30 April 2014 (UTC)

text: Support - as the articles stand, without third party refences. The Fat Slags is an example which uses better referencing. Jonpatterns (talk) 12:34, 7 July 2016 (UTC)

message: The entry for Jellyhead says that it was a one-off strip (involving the foiling of an armed robbery). There was a second strip, involving the tide coming in, a shark that hates the taste of lime jelly, and a terrorist gunboat, but I do not have a source for it. Does anybody here have the reference for the edition it was in so that the entry can be corrected? PortholePete (talk) 09:33, 15 November 2021 (UTC)

replies: text: Agree. I can't see any reason for this to have an article in its own right, and it doesn't cite any sources, which weakens its case. Lonegroover (talk) 08:58, 21 April 2023 (UTC)

thread_title:  Proposed merge of [[Raffles, the Gentleman Thug]] into [[List of Viz comic strips]] 

message: There was a one-off strip where Hugh Scully from the Antiques Roadshow tried to find out who had murdered Richard and Judy in a guesthouse. In passing, the killer referred to a piece of antique furniture as being from the wrong period, which Scully took as a proof of guilt. I can't remember enough to add it though.
