No evidence that there is, or ever has been, a notable distinct Welsh comics industry/scene. About 90% of the article refers to varying degrees of passing reference to Wales in comics published in other countries. -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 08:59, 25 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Keep the section about Welsh Language comics, delete the rest, and rename the article to the section name. A list of Welsh Language comics seems like a reasonable encyclopaedic topic to me (even if it needs radically expanding), but the rest of it seems like a random and arbitrary list of comics that happen to reference Wales or Welsh things one way or another, which looks unworkable. Should someone fancy rescuing this, I'll have another look. Chris Neville-Smith (talk) 20:35, 25 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]
As above - Keep the section about Welsh Language comics, delete the rest, and rename the article to the section name. I've no time now, but I've started to list possible content expansion in the article's talk page.--Rhyswynne (talk) 08:10, 26 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Keep There was/is a notable Welsh comics industry, it obviously doesn't get much coverage outside Wales. Cut out the mentions of Welsh characters from American comics and make this an article about Welsh comics. FruitMonkey (talk) 08:50, 1 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]
