This looks to be a non-notable fanfiction. I like the author's creativity, but I just don't see where this would pass WP:NBOOK. Most fanfiction never gets to the level of notability needed to pass that criteria without being published ala Fifty Shades. Even one of the most infamous fanfiction works out there, My Immortal, doesn't qualify for its own article and that's kind of a household name in the fanfic communities.

I'd have A7'd this, except that I'm not sure that works of fiction like this would qualify even if they were uploaded to the Internet. Tokyogirl79 (｡◕‿◕｡) 13:34, 23 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Correction: looks like My Immortal finally got its own article. When I'd last seen the article in 2013 it was a redirect, so you can kind of understand why it's so difficult to establish notability on Wikipedia. Tokyogirl79 (｡◕‿◕｡) 06:13, 25 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. No independent sources have been provided. --Metropolitan90 (talk) 01:42, 24 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Delete Fails WP:GNG Self-published fan fiction. No independent coverage, and highly doubtful there ever will be any based on the original work I found here https://www.fanfiction.net/s/12042566/1/FASTLANE-Zootopia. I'm also not sure if A7 web content applies either. Meters (talk) 03:56, 24 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Just speedy delete it. It someone's fan fiction, 'nuff said editorEهեইдအ😎 05:53, 24 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Delete Fails WP:BKCRIT. This would be A7-worthy, but unfortunately A7 doesn't apply to books. I can't seem to find any RS out there. On an unrelated note, it's cases like this where it just goes to show that we really need to make A9 apply to books. Omni Flames (talk) 08:46, 26 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Comment The article was blanked by an IP with no previous edits. I've restored it and asked the IP if he or she was the article creator, and suggested commenting here if so. Meters (talk) 22:18, 27 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]
- And now the article creator has blanked the article, so it seems he or she is not against deleting the article. At this point I think we're better off to close as "delete" rather than speedy G7. Meters (talk) 15:52, 28 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]
