The result of the debate was Delete... Everyone commenting except the author and one anon feel it's a delete. But there aren't very many commenters, so I looked into it myself to substantiate the claims made. This article seems to suffer confusion whether it's about a concept or a website. As a concept, there do seem to be some citations of it, and it's published elsewhere. But it's pretty clear the author of the papers that were published is the author of the article, and the cites aren't very deep. So it fails based on No original research grounds. As a site, it is almost unnoticable, and fails the web notability tests. SO, it looks like a delete to me. If the author and has made other significant contributions to Wikipedia other than this area, and wants it userified, I'd do that for them. But it's a delete, no doubt about it in my mind. Something tells me there will be a fair bit of inward cleaning to do, too. -- + +Lar: t/c 03:03, 18 June 2006 (UTC)

Bizarre original research about a totally unknown and unnotable website. Alexa rating of infinity. Ashibaka tock 22:14, 9 June 2006 (UTC)

(1) This research has been published outside of wikipedia (see refs). Bizzare? This is your POV. (2) Reference to Alexa rating doesn't support your claim. Alexa estimates some share of the traffic of a website. This share is created by a sample of users who chose to install Alexa toolbar on their computers. You can only tell that the traffic is no less than what Alexa reports. However, you try to make a statistical inference about a larger population from a non-random sample. This is a common mistake (read Sampling (statistics)). Alexa used to have a disclaimer to prevent people from misinterpreting their rankings. Alex Kosorukoff


 * Delete per nom and as ad. Author of article claims he has created the site on his Geocities homepage. Invitatious 15:52, 10 June 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete per nom as an ad for a non-notable site (which is trying to piggy-back off of the immense success of WP, Slashdot, and others). -- Kicking222 22:57, 10 June 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete as per above. -- No Guru 19:39, 15 June 2006 (UTC)
