Hi Gardeners, this page was set up as a fanzine page. However, the author has informed us that they only made a private print of their fanfic and never offered a public zine. Policy & Admin have already removed the author’s legal name as well as the link to the printing press and book cover (both also containing the author’s legal name) since these were never intended to be public. Currently, the page uses a Zine template. Since there never was an actual zine the template might need to be changed to the Fanfiction one? Best, -- Aruna (talk) 19:00, 5 December 2020 (UTC)

I'm thinking that this article could be deleted. This fic doesn't appear to be that influential or had that big of an impact on the fandom. It only has 8000 hits on AO3, which isn't even close to some of the top Clint Barton fics, and I know we shouldn't just focus solely on the numbers, but I have tried to find any recs or discussion about this fic online and I'm coming up with nothing -- Kingstoken (talk) 19:48, 23 November 2023 (UTC)

I'm opposed to deletion. We don't have a notability requirement for fanfiction pages on Fanlore and even if we did, this fic has >200 comments on Ao3. Those comments can be used to flesh out this page, if the issue is the lack of content on this page. Also even if we're unable to find public discussion of a fanwork, that doesn't necessarily mean there was no discussion. It could be happening in private servers or other spaces that aren't accessible to editors. --Auntags (talk) 21:58, 23 November 2023 (UTC)
I also am opposed to deletion due to our no notability policy. The page could use expanding but being a smaller fanfic wouldn't exclude it's place in Fanlore. Patchlamb (talk) 18:51, 16 December 2023 (UTC)
