They made a web page. Congrats! No need for a wikipedia entry, though Uucp 15:46, 13 December 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete, doesn't meet WP:WEB (forum lists 2,293 members, site has no alexa rank) Snurks  T  C 17:44, 13 December 2005 (UTC)
 * Keep - the only reason given for deleting this is WP:WEB which is a) Not policy [direct quote] and b) A POV notability standard. Therefore WP:WEB is not a valid reason. As for Alexa, it has great difficulty tracking sites that are outside the UK - I have a fairly reasonable search engine ranking for my site but Alexa is still showing the version from a few months ago. The other reason (Alexa) is therefore also invalid, and since no section of the Afd policy was quoted as justification for this, that makes it a keep in my book. Cynical
 * Delete You're right, WP:WEB is not a policy, it is a guideline to be used to filter through all sorts of cruft. Notablity is an ephemeral concept of course but the article gives no indication of why this concept should apply to this site. Alexa is used as a neutral third party verification of traffic rankings (which are admittedly a poor rubric, but arguments can be made for other indicators of notability).

 * Delete per WP:WEB and a lack of notability, eg. - Liberatore(T) 17:44, 22 December 2005 (UTC)
