Fandom Talk
Delete. Not a notable website as per WP:WEB. Alexa ranking of 1.6 million. Prod removed by anon with comment of "1/3 of a million hits is more than notable enough see talk page, site's part of a growing trend, as noted". However, merely being part of a growing trend does not confer notability. ... disco spinster   talk  14:08, 19 July 2006 (UTC)


 * Curious --I checked the other fandom type of related sites, as I didn't want to post something only to get it deleted (no purpose in that) and found some more obscure entries than mine, thinking it would be acceptable.  I should say, sorry for deleting the tags the first time, but I didn't know how else to get to the attention of whoever tagged it (I'm new).  Point is, why is this objectionable when sites like "The lurkers guide to babylon 5"  and glarkware as well as blogs like realityreel and fandomwank are permissable? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Ravenem (talk • contribs)
 * Comment. The Lurker's Guide to Babylon 5 has been visited by the TV show's creator, and has been mentioned in TV Guide, so it's got some notability.  The article on Glarkware has only been around since July 12, but my first impression is that it should come up for a review.  I've proposed RealityReel.com for deletion.  Fandom Wank was up for deletion back in December; the consensus was to keep, for the reasons listed on the deletion page. ...  disco spinster   talk  23:22, 19 July 2006 (UTC)


 * The Creator for Numb3rs has been a frequent visitor over at Fandom talk. She'll often correct incorrect spoilers or comment on the recaps -- if that helps.  Again, I wasn't trying to overstep any boundaries.  Just asking. Ravenem
 * Delete WP is not a web directory/index. Having the show's creator as a regular visitor doesn't automatically confer notability in my view, and the article doesn't make any other assertions of notability. Paddles TC 22:34, 20 July 2006 (UTC)


 *  AFD relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so that consensus may be reached.  Please add new discussions below this notice. Thanks, Mailer Diablo 20:54, 25 July 2006 (UTC)

 * Delete promo. Wile E. Heresiarch 06:04, 26 July 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete as original research, advertisement, and looks like a neologism. Fails WP:WEB for lacking multiple non-trivial articles by third-parties.  Tychocat 09:17, 26 July 2006 (UTC)
