PS3Portal
Not notable enough. There probably to get more people to visit. Thorpe | talk 20:02, 7 April 2006 (UTC)


 * Keep You don't need to be a member of Wikipedia to know this whole thing is BS. It's appauling just how hypocritical you are being towards websites and advertising. Joystiq, Engadget, Slashdot, and some site called  "hack a day" all have wiki pages that aren't getting deleted.

The community is not small and in some cases offers more information on a quicker basis then those sites listed above. What, just because we have PS3 in the title of our websites means we are advertising or are extremely biased? This is ridiculous and I feel PS3Portal and PS3Forums are just being uneccessarily descriminated against.
 * Delete per WP:WEB. Stifle (talk) 22:38, 8 April 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep Try doing Google search on just PS3, first thing you will find is this website. Beating out sites like IGN. Gamerman 13:34, 9 April 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep This site is just as up to date as IGN and 1up, it is user specific and only deals with the PS3 thus it's not cluttered with news about the other two systems. And yes, it is famous and notable, look at the forums it has an extensive list of members. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Tribunal (talk • contribs)
 * Keep I have to disagree with you Thorpe, this website is the top search result for "ps3" on Google. I'd consider that notable enough. LpChris12 20:05, 9 April 2006 (GMT -5:00)
 * Comment Again, just like the deletion of PS3Forums the people voting "Keep" have little edits and only contributions to the article being deleted. -- Thorpe | talk 12:16, 10 April 2006 (UTC)
 * The article has to benefit a good audience. Not just members of the site. -- Thorpe | talk 18:23, 10 April 2006 (UTC)


 * Comment And again, just like the PS3 Forums deletion thread, do we not make valid points simply because of our lack of experience? Could it not also be possible that these members first came to Wikipedia through this website, and plan on contributing here more often? LpChris12 16:39, 10 April 2006 (GMT -5:00)


 * Comment That is the policy: The deletion process is designed to determine the consensus of opinion of Wikipedia editors; for this reason comments from users whose histories do not show experience with or contributions to Wikipedia are traditionally given less weight and may be discounted entirely. You can't argue that with me. -- Thorpe | talk 21:59, 10 April 2006 (UTC)


 * Comment No, of course I can't, but that still doesn't mean that we cannot make valid points whatsoever. Perhaps if you would provide an explanation to back up your part of the argument then maybe we could better understand why you believe this page should be deleted?

 * Comment Hmm. Perhaps this page explains it. -- Thorpe | talk 22:40, 10 April 2006 (UTC)
 * Also, check out What Wikipedia is not. -- Thorpe | talk 22:41, 10 April 2006 (UTC)


 * Keep PS3Portal.com is a professional site dedicated to giving its visitors tha latest and greatest news on the PS3. This Wiki page was created so that anyone wishing to learn more about the history of the site or what the site pertains to...can! ~Perfect Sin (68.1.165.96)


 * Weak Delete. This article does not assert its notability within the article which is a requirement of WP:WEB. I agree with above posters if it is a major resource, but really it must assert its notability and does not. -- cmh 02:23, 11 April 2006 (UTC)


 * Comment Thorpe can you state what part of the What Wikipedia is not and this page, also state why it breaks it. Gamerman 10:28, 10 April 2006 (UTC)
