No evidence that this annual is in any way notable. Such books get produced for many popular characters, but are very rarely notable in themselves (they are not new, canonical adventures, but reprints plus some games and so on). Fram (talk) 11:21, 6 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

• Redirect Delete. This is not just any old annual with reprints plus some games etc. etc., it is AFAICT the only time an English language version of Asterix Conquers Rome was published. I have copied this source from the latter to the article under discussion, and you should think more good sources were out there, but I can't find them. Anybody else? I won't mind a redirect to Asterix Conquers Rome where the book is mentioned. But as the article stands now, NBOOK is not met.

• Per ATD, PRESERVE and R, this article cannot be deleted for lack of notability because it could be merged and redirected to Asterix Conquers Rome. I don't think that annuals can generally be presumed non-notable as not all are reprints (unlike this one) and some do receive coverage (eg Doctor Who and Blue Peter respectively).

  • And what would you suggest we merge into Asterix Conquers Rome that is not already mentioned there? Sam Sailor 08:01, 10 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]
• Redirect to Asterix Conquers Rome. Nothing worth merging and probably not entirely useful, but redirects are cheap. Argento Surfer (talk) 12:29, 10 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • I am fine with a redirect outcome. Sam Sailor 15:23, 11 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]
