 * The following discussion is an archived debate of the proposed deletion of the article below. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page (such as the article's talk page or in a deletion review).  No further edits should be made to this page.  

The result of the debate was Speedy delete. I am sufficiently convinced it was an article about a person who had a website rather than about the website; and without demonstrating the notability of the website, the person is not notable, even though websites themselves aren't speediable. Not sure if it needed to be relisted either; both participants wrote a bit, all in favour of deletion. CanadianCaesar Et tu, Brute? 03:33, 2 May 2006 (UTC)

Old Man Joe
Website without claim to notability. 830 hits on Google. ~MDD4696 23:48, 26 April 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete.. Even more weirdly, the website is about Joe but not by Joe, and it appears he doesn't even know about it. I don't imagine he'll be super pleased if he finds out. QUOTE: "He shows a particular interest to the aesthetics of his property, as he is commonly seen watering and raking his lawn, cleaning up his yard, and washing his car." This would not be encyclopedia information if about Napoleon, let alone some old dude in Toronto. Sadly I think we must consign Joe to the sad, lonely anonymity of his random, pointless life and no-doubt-imminent death and decomposition. Herostratus 21:47, 27 April 2006 (UTC)
