 * Comment As the creator of this site, a vote by me would be considered fancruft, so I'm not voting. However, I'd like to present some information about Diary-X that is relevant to this vote.  Diary-X has a total of 117,467 users, of which approximately 7,269 are active.  Only 35% of them are listed in the members directory (which is opt-in only).  Diary-X has been online since August 2000, and has recieved mention (although not in an article focused on Diary-X) in Newsweek and Time magazines.  The forums have approximately 4,818 members, although technically all Diary-X members are allowed to contribute to the forums.  Our Alexa ranking is 29,249, and Google results are misleading because Google has only recently lifted an internal ban on the diary-x.com domain.  This of course all boils down to not meeting the requirements for website notability, but only just barely.  Thanks. Stephen Deken 17:42, 6 November 2005 (UTC)
 * I've rewritten the page to reflect some of the notability of the site. Obviously if a vote by me is not conisdered to be fancruft, then I vote Keep.  -- Stephen Deken 22:42, 7 November 2005 (UTC)
