This should have been explained
The guidelines to determine whether or not we allow an article to stay are at WP:Notability. In short, a subject is considered notable if it has received significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject.

If the site has been blacklisted, someone must have been posting it over and over and over, without getting involved in any discussion that should have occured. That appears to have been, who appears to have violated our rule about shared accounts in addition to never asking anyone for help. He appears to have been a sockpuppet account for. Are these accounts affiliated with the project in any way?

At any rate, that account's attempt to make a page can be User:HHub/homeless_hub. The previous attempt does use some promotional language and does not provide any outside sources. Ian.thomson (talk) 17:17, 27 November 2011 (UTC)
