:The basis for this strict approach originated from the attempts made to get Halopedia on Wikipedia ([[Wikipedia:Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject_Halo#Halopedia_on_Wikipedia|see David Fuchs' comment]]). Regardless, there must be sources that reported the content (where the content is the sole subject of an article). As I said repeatedly, this is to ensure the floodgates to remain tightly closed. — <span style="font-size:14px; font-family:Arial;">[[User:Subtank|<span style="color:#FF4F00;">subtank</span>]]</span> 00:33, 18 March 2013 (EDT) | :The basis for this strict approach originated from the attempts made to get Halopedia on Wikipedia ([[Wikipedia:Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject_Halo#Halopedia_on_Wikipedia|see David Fuchs' comment]]).

Then if you're going to go by the "solely non-content approach", how would you assess the press of ''Fistful of Arrows'' and ''One One Se7en''? What shows then that they deserve their spots? Much of their Google results resembles those of the above comics, and they too rely on distribution from HBO, Bungie.net, DeviantArt, etc. Again, it seems like cutting out the proof by not including the amount of views they get on their host websites, nor their popularity among said sites' users.
