The result was merge to Drabble. The arguments for keep do not hold water. Three of the sources provided by Northamerica1000 do not meet the criteria of WP:RS. Many of the sources in the article also fail WP:RS or do not cover the subject. 55 Fiction appears to be a shorter variation of Drabble or Flash fiction. v/r - TP 20:19, 26 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Lacks notability. Recently added sources show only minor local interest in this topic. At best they give justification for mention on a Wikipedia article about the general topic, certainly not a whole article about this specific topic. DreamGuy (talk) 20:46, 9 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]
- Merge to Flash fiction, or some other page where it would fit. --—Hahc21 [TALK][CONTRIBS] 20:59, 9 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep for passing, less or more weakly, GNG. In addition to cited sources, the subject received coverage in St. Paul Pioneer Press, Language Magazine and Orlando Sentinel. It is also mentioned in some books, such as Michael L. Wilson's Flash Writing and George J. Bryjak's The Power Of The Dark Goddess. Maybe it could be merged somewhere, but I'm not sure where... maybe to Flash fiction, maybe to Steve Moss, maybe somewhere else. But it is just an editorial issue and does not require deletion.Cavarrone (talk) 21:17, 9 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]

- Keep - it is notable and does pass WP:GNG as there are enough WP:RS on the article as well as available online. →TSU tp* 04:36, 24 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]
- Perhaps a Merge to Drabble might be in order, as this appears to be a shorter variation on it? - The Bushranger One ping only 07:15, 24 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep There is just enough coverage here to meet the main notability guideline. Davewild (talk) 12:13, 25 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]
