Players Anonymous
Prod removed without comment. Website and "social group" for Utah arts scene. Alexa is over 2 million and Google search finds less than 200 links (80 unique) from other sites. Fails WP:WEB -- Fan-1967 20:52, 12 September 2006 (UTC)

 * Many of us feel that Players Anonymous is important to the Utah Arts scene, in particular to those interested in the community theatrical arts. It's influence in Utah is worth an article in Wikipedia. — Preceding unsigned comment added by PantydeLeopard (talk • contribs)
 * Players Anonymous is a valuable tool for Utah's theater community. It provides up to date information about auditions, performances, venues and casting calls as well as provides networking opportunities for people involved in all aspects of theater.
 * Delete non-notable group. Advertising, hence non-Wiki tone and the vanity of that image gallery. The JPS talk to me  22:18, 12 September 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete per WP:WEB or WP:ORG, take your pick. Alexa rank of 2,097,942. William Pietri 22:54, 12 September 2006 (UTC)

 * Keep PA is invaluable to the local Utah theater community, as well as its growing membership throughout the U.S. According to WP:WEB"Organizations whose activities are local in scope are usually not notable unless verifiable information from reliable third party sources can be found." Most theatrical activities listed on PA can be verified through the listed theater, in various news papers, and on other theatrical websites. Furthermore "Organizations are usually notable if the scope of activities are national in scale and information can be verified by a third party source." Though most activities listed are local to Utah we do have members throughout the U.S. who also list theatrical activity which can also be verified in their individual states.

 * Comment We can take it for granted that information about events can be verified. What WP:WEB is asking for is verifiable coverage from third-party sources about your website. That's a very different thing. Fan-1967 18:18, 13 September 2006 (UTC)
 * User's only edits are to the article and this AfD. William Pietri 18:39, 13 September 2006 (UTC)


 * Delete Non-notable group, though from reading their public pages, they're self-important. They even have a thread on their message board trying to get their members to come here and keep the Wikipedia article going.  http://www.playersanonymous.org/cgi-bin/yabb/YaBB.pl?num=1158092852 --Going insane 14:40, 13 September 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep Despite the regional nature of the website and low link-count to the site, the site does have high cultural value for the state of Utah, and is well known in the Utah arts community. Sifujc 15:21, 13 September 2006 (UTC)

 * Comment As invaluable as they may be to those who value them, they do not meet inclusion criteria for Wikipedia. Wikipedia is an encyclopedia. Only about 300 unique google hits.[[User_talk:Dlohcierekim| :) Dlohcierekim] 01:37, 14 September 2006 (UTC)
