The result was   redirect to Pokémon. The article was created by a clear WP:COI account in 2008; it was redirected to Pokémon a month after creation, then on 20 February 2011 had that reverted(!) by an IP editor. Although the article has been cleaned up a bit, it's still questionable whether it would surivive a CSD if it had been nominated for that instead of AfD; and, as is obvious below, the consensus is to delete. Accordingly, restoring to its state as a revert seems to be the proper course of action here; the website might deserve a mention in the main article if it isn't already, but not its own page.

Non-notable website, fails WP:WEB. WP:COI by creator. Shire Reeve (talk) 09:58, 23 February 2011 (UTC) *Comment In the AfD log, there may appear to be a post about the South Wales Coalfield at the bottom of this section. This is due to a faulty nomination, and is nothing to do with this discussion. I hope to get it sorted ASAP. Peridon (talk) 23:03, 23 February 2011 (UTC) ''Problem sorted.

 * I am trying to follow what is going on here. Is this user suggesting that the Qbone page should be moved to South Wales Coalfield or is it just a simple error? Skullbird11 (talk) 02:52, 24 February 2011 (UTC)
 * Sorry about that - there was an attempt to get the coalfield deleted, but the user wasn't familiar with AfD and left a template out. Nomination has been withdrawn, and it should have been at RfD anyway so I've done a non-admin closure. I put the comment above to stop anyone who came in from the log route worrying about where an apparent comment had gone when they opened this one. All sorted out now.

 * Speedy Delete - Why is this here? Delete page as it is not notable Skullbird11 (talk) 22:54, 23 February 2011 (UTC)
 * Weakkk Keep - Among Pokémon websites it seems well known and notable when it comes to Pokémon news. They are also helpful in the Pokémon Online simulator area and are the first to take in depth looks at doubles strategy. They try to stray away from Uber, OU, etc ranks of smogon which other sites also do not tend to do. They would need to add more details about these sort of subjects. --Yugioh fan not pokemon (talk) 05:46, 27 February 2011 (UTC) — Yugioh fan not pokemon (talk • contribs) has made few or no other edits outside this topic.
