At what point does it become a notable amount of pornography? Is it purely a matter of volume or does like, breadth of different types of pornography count? Does one just go on imageboards and count the tags? Could one compel wikipedia to accept a page about any other media property by using those kinds of numbers to justify it?

this confusion goes back to the difference between what the word notability means in common parlance vs in wikispeak. The talk page user is likely confused about this, as is @bruno.

It's an understandable confusion. We take notable to mean...well...notable! If something is notable it must be a big deal and important and everyone should know it and it's something really worth knowing and so on and so forth.
On Wikipedia, notable has a much more specific definition.

For something on Wikipedia to be notable, it has to be worthy of notice. This does not translate to fame, importance, or popularity. What makes something worthy of notice, then? What does Wikipedia mean when they say notable?

"A topic is presumed to be suitable for a stand-alone article or list when it has received significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject."

This is the GNG, General Notability Guideline. In short, something is worthy of notice if a significant number of reliable sources have written about it. and oh man have a lot of people written about overwatch and porn - 38 distinct references on that page specifically more than sets a clear picture of Overwatch & Porn being worthy of notice.

There are exceptions, of course, and many editors arguing all the time about notability, but the standards in your head and the standards for Wikipedia are just different.

they provide care via telehealth in 25 US states. if you have extra resources and want to help out, this is a wonderful clinic helping a lot of trans people and families. they are solely focused on HRT / transition care

the team itself is comprised of really beautiful humans, including queer and trans doctors and NPs.
