Online grocer

 * – ( View AfD View log  •  )

Should be a detail in the grocery store article, rather than the non-specific mess that this separate article encourages. A non-detailed explanation of the concept of an online grocer is all that's needed, we probably don't need operational details and spam for grocery stores. A separate article such as "List of online grocers" could detail the individual online grocers.

 * Keep significant specialized business. Needs considerable expansion,    DGG ( talk ) 03:48, 12 August 2010 (UTC)
 * Keep There are substantial differences to bricks-and-mortar grocers, and it's a significant business sector in its own right, so I think there's no harm in exploring these in a separate article. If some of it starts looking spammy (ie. links are added to many online grocers) then that's a content problem which could best be resolved by editing rather than removing the article. bobrayner (talk) 15:57, 12 August 2010 (UTC)
 * Keep - very different business model as noted above. TheGrappler (talk) 23:11, 18 August 2010 (UTC)
