Talk:Blip

This article, along with Vic Video, should be deleted. According to Canonicity, ''Lastly, it should be noted that, canonical or not, the Super Mario Wiki only covers official content, as well as unofficial but notable mainstream cameo appearances and knockoffs that have been acknowledged by Nintendo itself. Fan creations, such as fan-fiction, fan-made video games, or fan-theories, are not to be referenced within our articles.'' Blip has nothing to do with Nintendo and is not notable at all. It only ran for seven issues in 1983. The contents of this article should be here instead: List of Mario references in publications.--Platform (talk) 00:55, June 29, 2021 (EDT)
 * Marvel Comics seems to have used Nintendo's property outright rather than simply reference it, which wouldn't be feasible without some licensing agreement occurring. My own doubts on this matter lead me to think there should be copyright information somewhere in this particular Blip issue to prove it. If so, then this page and Vic Video describe officially-endorsed subjects that are covered under Coverage and should stay; the publication's notability has no bearing on this. 04:19, June 29, 2021 (EDT)
 * There is no need for licensing since it is a fair use parody which is exempt from copyright. Nintendo isn't mentioned at all in that issue.--Platform (talk) 04:32, June 29, 2021 (EDT)
 * Except this isn’t a parody. Mario and Donkey Kong appear wholesale rather than being imitations of the original characters. EDIT: Checked the issue myself. Indeed, no mention of Nintendo is made. I’m not exactly sure how to proceed on this one. 05:49, June 29, 2021 (EDT)
 * The magazine itself probably isn't licensed, but the comic has to be. I looks like it to me. 00:59, July 6, 2021 (EDT)
