Spammy article by single-purpose account. Instead of establishing why this top-level domain is important or notable, it describes when and where potential customers can sign up. Q VVERTYVS (hm?) 18:02, 21 July 2014 (UTC)
 * Keep per WP:notability and WP:verifiability - I believe it is notable and recognized by The Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers (ICANN) (see here and here). Instead of deleting the article, the content which violates Wikipedia policy can be removed. C ute st Penguin '''  {talk • contribs} 19:00, 21 July 2014 (UTC)
 * Those sources establish existence, not notability. The former is just a listing, the second a kind of press release. Q VVERTYVS (hm?) 19:06, 21 July 2014 (UTC)
 * Delete. I see coverage in an article at Information Week and an article at The Register.  However, these are really just trivial mentions, and they don't satisfy the GNG.  When there's more coverage, like .com and .org, then we'll have an article. NinjaRobotPirate (talk) 20:40, 21 July 2014 (UTC)


 * Delete - I think the issue here is going to be the depth of coverage. I see lots of passing mentions and single-lines but nothing in the way of "significant coverage". Happy to reconsider if someone finds something I didn't.  St ★ lwart 1 1 1 23:25, 21 July 2014 (UTC)
 * Redirect to Generic top-level domain (which needs to be updated accordingly) as an ATD. Insufficient coverage to establish notability as a stand-alone topic. Philg88 ♦talk 07:10, 22 July 2014 (UTC)
 * I could support that, too. NinjaRobotPirate (talk) 03:19, 23 July 2014 (UTC)
 * Yeah, I'd have no objection to that either.  St ★ lwart 1 1 1 03:39, 23 July 2014 (UTC)
