Masters of Media

 * – ( View AfD View log ) •

This is a blog run as part of one particular class in a degree program. My speedy on it was declined. It is possible for academic blogs or mailing lists to be notable, but the claim in the article  "recognized as among the leading academic blogs on the subject of digital culture " needs some evidence.; I see none, and in any events a claim to be "one of" the important blogs in a field is on the vague side; a substantiated claim to be the most important might possibly be meaningful. The wording in the article appears academic promotional jargon, for example: "a basis for in-depth perspectives in our culture". It was objected that the person running the blog is notable, but that does not make every class project of his notable also. (One of his own projects, Nettime, is notable--see that article for the sort of evidence needed.)  DGG ( talk ) 23:54, 21 November 2010 (UTC)
 * Delete By all means, add the blog with a note to Geert Lovinck's bio, but the article itself is on three topics, and there's nothing referenced about the blog itself being notable. Yakushima (talk) 11:41, 22 November 2010 (UTC)
