Kolony

 * – ( View AfD View log  •  Stats )

This Malaysian social network does not appear to meet the general notability guideline. Googling using the term "kolony" retrieved many false positives, so I instead used the term "kolony" social network, which did have some hits on Google Books, but all from before the founding of the website. That search term also retrieved a couple of hits on Google News archives, but they only included brief mentions of Kolony, not discussion of the website itself. Suspecting that sources might be available in Malay, I performed Google Books, Google News, and Google News archives searches with the search term "kolony" rangkaian sosial ("rangkaian sosial" is a machine-provided translation of "social network", please tell me if this is wrong), but unlike the English searches, the Malay searches retrieved absolutely nothing. If the website had won an important award, that would have been reported in reliable sources, so Kolony appears to fail both criteria of Notability (web).

 * Comment - I was able to find some sites online, but I'm not sure if they are actual coverage or press releases. Narutolovehinata5 tccsdnew 13:09, 8 July 2012 (UTC)
 * Could you post links to some of those? They might be worth at least a look. Chris the Paleontologist  (talk • contribs) 18:18, 9 July 2012 (UTC)
