List of Web services allowing access from any origin

 * – ( View AfD View log )

The topic of this page is a list of web servers that make use of a particular web standard in such a way as to allow cross site scripting.

My reasons for deletion are that the inclusion criteria for this list in no way limits itself to the importance of its members which are potentially vast. There are literally millions of sites that allow this sort of cross site posting. The article does not provide any information that is not already in the parent article Cross-Origin Resource Sharing.

I do not believe the topic is encyclopedic in nature as it does not convey any information that is established by third parties. The citations given are not reliable. By compiling our own list based on loose criteria and non-reliable sources I believe original research is being done.

I believe this should be made into a redirect to Cross-Origin Resource Sharing. Chillum (Need help? Ask me) 02:02, 14 October 2011 (UTC)

 * delete Violates WP:LINKFARM and WP:NOTDIR, and besides, one has to expect that this information is extremely ephemeral. Mangoe (talk) 13:56, 21 October 2011 (UTC)
