User talk:Montipat

A tag has been placed on IHipo, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done for the following reason:

Non-notable beta test site; does not attempt to assert it's notability

Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not meet very basic Wikipedia criteria may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as an appropriate article, and if you can indicate why the subject of this article is appropriate, you may contest the tagging. To do this, add  on the top of the page and leave a note on the article's talk page explaining your position. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would confirm its subject's notability under the guidelines.

For guidelines on specific types of articles, you may want to check out our criteria for biographies, for web sites, for bands, or for companies. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. Ref (chew) (do) 00:30, 20 July 2007 (UTC)

iHipo
(Answering your post to my talk page) - I would delete it again and again if necessary (someone else has actually, so I'm not wrong!) - websites cannot be notable after a launch of only a month - it's impossible. However, many editors are unable to see past their pet projects, and are blind to WP:NOTABLE because of their commitment to a cause or subject. That's then a violation of WP:COI, and another reason why I have never swerved from deleting anything I have seen as non-notable. Although I am no longer watching the List, due to the snowblindness of the said editors (and a few admins who support this nn notability phenomenon), I will still delete, or submit for deletion, anything else listed or articled I see as nn, in the spirit of Jimmy Wales. Thanks and good luck with future editing. Ref (chew) (do) 19:27, 28 July 2007 (UTC)
