- Most of the references come directly from the author himself, Leo. I don't remember how to add someone as a reference, if anyone can do this please do so thanks :) RailworksAmerica (talk) 09:01, 8 March 2026 (UTC)
- Mods, please for the love of God don't delete this page again. Leo wrote most of it himself. RailworksAmerica (talk) 09:32, 8 March 2026 (UTC)
- Hi @RailworksAmerica, I am unable to find any independent reliable sources which mention this web comic at all. Do you have any sources that discuss this comic which are independent of the author of the comic or the comic itself? I am happy to help you add content to the article if you need assistance, but without independent reliable sources showing WP:notability of this web comic, this article is likely to be deleted again.

- i've added some sources, hopefully they work well enough RailworksAmerica (talk) 01:05, 9 March 2026 (UTC)
- I would not say that the current state of the sources on the article are independent and reliable to support notability of this article.
- To go through the sources that are on the article at this time:
- https://alphalunacomic.net/about/ - not independent, this is the article subject's main webpage
- https://www.cuartomundo.cl/2015/05/29/entrevista-a-leonardo-vidal-creador-de-alpha-luna-hay-un-descubrimiento-del-comic-chileno-gracias-a-internet/ - this source is in spanish, but looking at it's content through a translation tool, this looks to be an interview with the author of the comic, so this is not independent, and it would be a WP:Primary source for information about the comic. See WP:Interview for an essay about the use of interviews as sources in articles. I'm not familiar with this source, but from the "About this site" page and the included you can find information, deep reviews and interesting articles of what we like. quote, I am unconfident about the separate reliability of this source if other content aside from this interview were used.
- https://www.patreon.com/c/alphaluna/home - not independent, this is the article subject's author's patreon page
- https://visuales.net/alpha-luna/ - I am struggling to find information about this source. It looks like it might be listings of visual novels? I would not lean on this as a reliable source because we don't know who is writing it and how information is vetted or selected for inclusion.
- https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I00OK6sNiTE - not independent, this looks like the official youtube channel for this comic/author
- https://alphalunacomic.net/about/ - not independent, article subject's main webpage
- https://alphalunacomic.net/characters/luna/ - not independent, article subject's main webpage
- https://alphalunacomic.net/characters/collie/ - not independent, article subject's main webpage
- https://alphalunacomic.net/characters/fang/ - not independent, article subject's main webpage
- The general notability guideline for Wikipedia states that A topic is presumed to be suitable for a stand-alone article or list when it has received significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject. With potentially one source if we take the interview from cuartomundo.cl as a reliable source, I do not think this topic meets the standard of significant coverage in indepndent reliable sources as it stands right now.
- Do you have other sources that cover this subject which show that it meets the general notability guideline, or any other WP:Notability guideline? It is okay if the answer is no, but if that is the case, the subject is likely not suitable for having its own article. Jiltedsquirrel đ° (talk || contribs) 02:34, 9 March 2026 (UTC)

- Have you reviewed the pages WP:Notability and WP:Reliable sources? These are Wikipedia guidelines which describe information and rules which Wikipedia editors generally should follow when working on (in these cases) main-space Wikipedia article content. Please start there and review those pages, as this is the most accurate source of information regarding what myself and other editors are referring when discussing article improvement and authorship. I will also share with you some of the links from the welcome notice I left on your talk page, which are:
- Help:Your first article, which is a walk-through of how to write a Wikipedia article including several considerations such as sourcing and notability and is intended to be approachable for newer editors.
- Wikipedia:Articles for creation, which is a project designed to assist with new article creation. Typically the articles for creation (AfC) process is
- An interested editor or group of editors create a draft article (the page this message was left on is the Talk page for the Draft article Alpha Luna)
- An editor clicks the "Submit the draft for review!" button on the top banner of the draft article. This adds the draft to a queue for experienced reviewers (who are all also Wikipedia editors) to review the submitted draft.
- A reviewer will assess the draft to ensure that the content meets requirements set up in Wikipedia policies and guidelines for WP:Notability, WP:Verifiability, and overall structure and adherence to the WP:Manual of Style. If the draft is acceptable for publication to main-space, the reviewer will move the article and complete any needed notifications or cleanup needed to finish the AfC process. If the draft is not ready for publication, the reviewer will leave comments on the draft to explain the reason the draft is not ready.
- Please review at least the notability and reliable sources guidelines I linked at the top of this message and then you can either reply here to this comment or let me know on my talk page (by making a new section) if you have any additional questions.

- I havnt come up with reliable sources, but I think Iâve got the notability down.
- If I remember correctly, Alpha Luna inspired many others to create their own comics and stories about werewolves, such as âthe lycanthrope clubâ and âmoonlit brewâ, to name a few. RailworksAmerica (talk) 04:43, 2 April 2026 (UTC)

Article moved to Draft space
editPlease do not move this page out of Draft space again. It has no references and is not ready to be in article space yet. It also appears to have COI issues, per the page's creator. â Jonesey95 (talk) 17:21, 8 March 2026 (UTC)
- What do you mean by "COI issues"? conflict of interest? RailworksAmerica (talk) 00:52, 9 March 2026 (UTC)
- Yes, COI as mentioned above by Jonesey95 refers to the abbreviation we use for Conflict of Interest. More information about the guideline regarding conflicts of interest is available at the page WP:Conflict of Interest. Jiltedsquirrel đ° (talk || contribs) 16:46, 9 March 2026 (UTC)
