Amateur Hurricane Center
This online forum is probably not notable. Only 10 search results outside of Wikipedia for "Amateur Hurricane Center". For the 1 external link provided, the Alexa traffic ranking is 129,718... and a total of 0 sites link to it, including Wikipedia and its mirrors. No other articles link to this, it has only been edited by 1 user, and not since 20 January 2006. This message was generated by a bot. &mdash; Catapult 15:25, 24 January 2006 (UTC)

 * Anything Besides Delete - First of all, the argument for deletion is not very convincing, as some of the information is not correct. I have never even heard of this "Alexa" traffic ranking. Even if it is a reputable source of information, the current time of year does not accurately represent the site's true traffic standpoint (it is currently not hurricane season, thus making the visitation to the website low). Second, there is an incomprehensible amount of articles on Wikipedia that have only been edited by one user and have not been deleted. And the fact that the article hasn't been edited in the last five days is not pertinent to this deletion at all. Who cares? I'm sure there are millions of articles that haven't even been edited in weeks or even months. Third, there is criteria met under the WP:WEB category. There are links to this site from "significant" weather sites such as Weather Underground (wunderground.com). Fourth, the title does not mean a center that tracks amateur hurricanes - it is a hurricane center run by amateur meteorologists. I am the author by the way, and just about every article that I have written has either been put up for deletion and called a drug dream or rudely edited from a well thought out, comprehensive article into someone else's trashy insult-of-an-article work without even crediting the original author. I am fed up with Wikipedia! Schlockading 01:18, 26 January 2006 (UTC)
