Contested deletion
editThis page should not be speedily deleted because… Angry Little Asian Girl and the acronym ALAG have become part of the slang vernacular. There is no history online about where ALAG and Angry Little Asian Girl comes from so I wrote the history of how it came to be. I am the creator as well, so if you would like another person to write the same information, I can do that if it meets your policy --Noisyneko (talk) 14:54, 10 September 2014 (UTC)
- it did not provide independent verifiable sources to enable us to verify the facts and show that it meets the notability guidelines. Your links were to the site itself, a YouTube video and a slang website that does not appear to be a recognised authority (such as Webster or OED). The text is largely unsourced (not even supported by the company website) and is highly promotional in tone. The shirts were immensely popular... a lot of females understood the sentiment... a successful line of merchandise...
- loved the ALAG shirts but were too afraid to wear them. — looks like a weak excuse for lack of sales. Why should anyone be afraid to wear a promotional shirt?
- Two positive reviews from 16 years ago, with apparently nothing more recent suggests that even if it was notable then it was just a flash in the pan. Quoting only positive reviews is pretty spammy as well. Nothing at this respected review site
- You have an obvious conflict of interest when it comes to editing articles about this subject. Thank you for declaring your interest. If, after reading the information about notability linked above, you still believe that your organisation is notable enough for a Wikipedia article (and that there is significant coverage in reliable, independent secondary sources), you could, if you wish, post a request at Wikipedia:Requested articles for the article to be created. See also Wikipedia:Best practices for editors with conflicts of interest.
Assessing as C-class
editThis article now has a number of citations and covers the core information well. However, it is missing a lot of detail. Some points that should be included if possible include:
- How many episodes of the original series are there?
- Did Lee work alone on these and if not, who helped her? (One article refers to a cinematographer being involved before the 1998 screening)
- When were the hardcopy versions of the initial series published?
- What was the reception to the Mnet series?
- Why does it seem like there was only one series of the Mnet version, when apparently there was a contract for two?
- Can the article include an image from the Mnet series, which might illustrate the difference between her work in 1998 and much later, collaborative work?
