P2Pspot

 * ( [ delete] ) – (View AfD) (View log)

Declining db-spam. The first 50 of 1200 Google hits didn't establish notability; nothing on news.google.com; a few hits on Google's blog search FWIW. I would have db-web'd it if I had had the patience to skim all 1200 Google hits, but I didn't. - Dan Dank55 (push to talk) 21:31, 31 March 2009 (UTC)

 * Speedy. Google stops claiming dissimilar results after the first 94.  It probably could've stopped much, much sooner; about 90% of numbers 51-94 are from various subdomains of facebook; I didn't find anything worthwhile in the remainder.  (No hits on Google News, either.)  In any case, I don't see an assertion of notability in the article; the point of A7 is to triage which articles are worth looking for further sources for.  If the original author didn't provide even a hint of a reason why this website should be documented on Wikipedia, we shouldn't be wasting time verifying it. &mdash;Korath (Talk) 02:13, 1 April 2009 (UTC)
 * Speedy per A7 now seems warranted thanks to Korath; the ghits suddenly end at 92, and I see no indication of notability in them. - Dan Dank55 (push to talk) 04:20, 1 April 2009 (UTC)


 * I requested P2Pspot to be documented to better define 'P2P it' expressions used within my community. There seemed to be some confusion, so I felt an online encyclopedia would be a perfect spot for this information. - webbpage — Preceding unsigned comment added by Webbpage (talk • contribs) 22:13, April 1, 2009

 * If you're going to request that this article be deleted, please base reasoning off more than hit counts in a Google search. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Webbpage (talk • contribs) 12:44, April 8, 2009
 * It doesn't work like that. Subjects need to be both verifiable and notable to merit an article at Wikipedia; P2Pspot appears to be neither, due to the complete lack of reliable third-party coverage.  We've made a good-faith effort to find the sources that you, as the article's creator, should have provided but did not - not by counting google hits, but by visiting every one of them and confirming their unsuitability.  This isn't something we had to do - as this article is about a website (a subject area that sees a constant influx of articles about unverifiable, non-notable subjects), and it doesn't so much as claim significance, any administrator may delete this article at any time - there was no need to have this discussion in the first place.  If the article is to stay, it needs reliable, third-party sources, and there's nobody in a better position to find them than you.  We certainly couldn't. &mdash;Korath (Talk) 02:28, 9 April 2009 (UTC)
 * Thank you for your response. http://assets.mediaspanonline.com/prod/1771184/01052009_gvl_A08.pdf was added to Wik as a third party source (see 'buy used books'). I'm new at this, please let me know if I need to add anything else.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by Webbpage (talk • contribs) 10:58, 9 April 2009 (UTC)
