University project with no notable third party coverage. Creator said he would provide evidence of such coverage but as of yet has failed to do so. Google search reveals no 3rd party sources even mentioning it. Drdisque (talk) 17:09, 4 November 2009 (UTC)
 * Keep. There is an article in what appears to be a scholarly journal about the project, as listed under "References" in the article. -- Eastmain (talk) 18:17, 4 November 2009 (UTC)
 * Read the "article" it's just basically a puff piece about the project written by the University that hosts it. -Drdisque (talk) 18:31, 4 November 2009 (UTC)
 * Puff pieces don't have footnotes. It's a legitimate scholarly reference. -- Eastmain (talk) 19:52, 5 November 2009 (UTC)


 * Comment. See this newspaper article and http://www.pjstar.com/features/x1886925837/The-Peoria-speech, which uses an image from Lincoln/Net. -- Eastmain (talk) 19:52, 5 November 2009 (UTC)

 * Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so consensus may be reached.


 * Keep, per User: Eastmain. It would make more sense, however, if there was an article about the parent, the Abraham Lincoln Historical Digitization Project.-- Pink Bull  18:18, 18 November 2009 (UTC)
