Wikipedia talk:Why is BFDI not on Wikipedia?/FAQ
 | Below are answers to frequently asked questions about the corresponding page Wikipedia:Why is BFDI not on Wikipedia?. They address concerns, questions, and misconceptions which have repeatedly arisen on the talk page. Please update this material when needed. |
Q1: If another web series has a Wikipedia article, then why doesn't BFDI have one?
A1: Citing other articles about similar subjects to justify notability is a common and generally hit-and-miss argument. While those articles exist, they might not be necessarily notable for inclusion on Wikipedia. Editors do not have the time to check every single article in existence and nominate non-notable subjects for deletion. Web series like Skibidi Toilet and Homestuck have articles because they have coverage in reputable journalistic sources and scholarly analysis. BFDI does not have this type of coverage, thus making it a non-notable topic for this article.
Q2: Why are Wikipedia editors biased against BFDI and against creating an article for this series?
A2: Wikipedians are not "biased" against BFDI. The creation of a Battle for Dream Island article is simply not allowed because the topic lacks notability and overly enthusiastic fans have repeatedly recreated it despite consensus favoring its deletion. This behavior is disruptive and wastes the time of those who have to delete and salt (i.e. protect a page from creation) the pages created by these said enthusiasts, which is why it is blacklisted on Wikipedia.
