 * I replaced the VfD notice which anon creator User:128.12.80.59 removed, and left a note on hir talk elaborating on why this is Not a Good Thing. No vote yet, but a question for the floor: does How to Kill a Mockingbird merit an article? If so, we should merge. Samaritan 02:45, 15 May 2005 (UTC)

Keep How to Kill a Mockingbird has an Alexa ranking of 497,417 and gets 5,090 Google hits. It is also Google's sixth result for "To Kill a Mockingbird." AwesomeFunny.com, I happened to notice, was also featured on collegehumor.com today. I was the one who removed the original tag, and I apoligize. I'm new to editing wikis and I thought it was some sort of error in the edit code. I found this entry, because I'm a big fan of awesome funny. Just visit the forums or the google hits for mockingbird to see the legit fanbase.128.12.80.59 03:13, 15 May 2005 (UTC)Fred Barles

Actually, How to Kill a Mockingbird gets 622 hits, so that's probably worth keeping, but just because AwesomeFunny's forums think it's great, it's still not notable based upon the criteria I listed above. RickK 04:42, May 15, 2005 (UTC)

Google says 5090 for me.128.12.80.59 10:49, 15 May 2005 (UTC)
 * That's because the count you're using is for every single occurrence of the phrase, no matter how many times it might have been used on the same website. My count is for the unique websites.  RickK 21:06, May 15, 2005 (UTC)

Keep. EvilPhoenix
 * Why? RickK 07:12, May 15, 2005 (UTC)
 * I feel it should be kept. It's kind of a gut thing, and that is how I chose to vote on it, and I leave the decision to the arbitrating administrator to interpret consensus. I hope that doesn't sound snarky, I don't intend it to. Best regards, EvilPhoenix


 * Keep. Assuming the article is accurate, then IMO it at least scrapes in. There is no suggestion of an accuracy problem on Talk:AwesomeFunny, in fact at the time of writing there is no discussion there at all. Andrewa 14:59, 15 May 2005 (UTC)
 * Keep. Notable enough, I've heard of it. &#9999; Oven Fresh  ²  15:03, 15 May 2005 (UTC)
 * Ah, I see. We get screamed at for "deleting things you never heard of", but inclusionists get to say, "Keep it becuase I've heard of it."  You don't care that there are only 15 Google hits and an Alexa rating of over a million?  RickK 21:06, May 15, 2005 (UTC)
 * Rick, it seems to me that you're being extremely elitist. You&#8217;re just ignoring the arguments I presented in response to your Alexa ranking argument by angrily repeating your initial claim.128.12.80.59 21:27, 15 May 2005 (UTC)
