WP:BEFORE reveals many sales pages but no WP:RS. – UnnamedUser (open talk page) 01:05, 2 December 2019 (UTC)
- The sources do actually include several reviews of series books in major national review media (Kirkus, PopMatters, Publishers Weekly, various daily newspapers) that speak to the importance of individual titles and the series' relevance as a dedicated outlet for Latinx comics creators. These are not sales pages. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 128.146.189.95 (talk) 20:54, 2 December 2019 (UTC)
- The Kirkus review and Publishers Weekly don't even mention Latinographix at all. Pop Matters only gives a passing mention at the bottom about the name of the series. – UnnamedUser (open talk page) 22:00, 2 December 2019 (UTC)
- Delete, mentioned in passing in a few interviews [1][2][3], but no significant coverage. – Thjarkur (talk) 22:22, 2 December 2019 (UTC)
- Merge to Ohio State University Press seems completely appropriate to merge the imprint into the publisher page, as we would do on most such topics, Sadads (talk) 16:25, 3 December 2019 (UTC)
- A little problem – the publisher article doesn't mention Latinographix at all, it's a stub, and it has a flashy questionable notability tag. UnnamedUser (talk) 18:12, 3 December 2019 (UTC)
- @UnnamedUser: really? This is the first reference on the article for deletion. Sadads (talk) 13:19, 5 December 2019 (UTC)
- Oh, sorry. I have a habit of not reading appendices or what looks like an appendix. UnnamedUser (talk) 19:14, 5 December 2019 (UTC)

- Comment, not sure why this is any more notable then Ohio State University Press's other series/imprints (see here), none of which are mentioned in the wikiarticle. Coolabahapple (talk) 08:42, 5 December 2019 (UTC)
- @Coolabahapple: That the OSU Press article is a stub and doesn't mention other series, is not a reason to not include it -- if anything, that argues for other notable series with significant secondary coverage, like this one, ought to be covered. If there is a significant scholarly interest in this series, there is plenty of room for inclusion. Sadads (talk) 13:19, 5 December 2019 (UTC)
- agree (wondered if anyone would take the bait, you/others may trout me for being cheeky), as penance have added OSUP series/imprints to OSUP article. Coolabahapple (talk) 14:35, 5 December 2019 (UTC)
- Merge. Hyperbolick (talk) 16:38, 10 December 2019 (UTC)
