Similar to the Great Unknown (A Series of Unfortunate Events) deletion discussion, this is a belabored fancrufty analysis of a fictional entity, rife with original research and synthesis, and most crucially, no evidence of independent notability per WP:GNG, that is, real world notability. --Animalparty-- (talk) 08:57, 10 May 2015 (UTC)
- Redirect to A Series of Unfortunate Events: I probably would have nominated the article for AfD myself if you hadn't. — Bilorv(talk)(c)(e) 10:16, 10 May 2015 (UTC)
- Redirect An impressive piece of fandom that would do well on a Lemony Snicket wiki, but is not suitable for Wikipedia because it's not sourced to third parties and there's no indication of independent notability. The main article probably says almost all that can be sourced. In 100 Google search results the best source I could find was a dialog in AV Club[1] which includes some discussion of VFD, but as I understand it, dialogues (like interviews) aren't reliable sources. --Colapeninsula (talk) 13:38, 12 May 2015 (UTC)
