 * Keep The history of the site involves a failed launch of a television network, the attempts by Sony to monetize their shows and a description of the website. Also, 15 years is not "short-lived". There just isn't anywhere this can easily go otherwise as it would be removed as TMI from the (already incredibly overstuffed) Y&R and DOOL articles, and completely confusing in Sony Pictures Digital.

 * I dont see how any of that makes it notable. And if you want people to understand your contributions please dont fill them with unexplained acronyms.Rathfelder (talk) 22:28, 16 October 2019 (UTC)
 * Comment "TMI" is a universally-understood acronym, and almost any soap fan knows what "Y&R" and "DOOL" are...that text box in the browser is also handy to search for any unknown acronyms.  Nate  • ( chatter ) 02:24, 25 October 2019 (UTC)
 * There is no such thing as a universally-understood acronym, and these discussions are not confined to soap fans.


 * Keep. Passes WP:GNG. The nominator clearly didn't follow WP:BEFORE. There are plenty of newspaper and magazine articles on this topic (276 articles in my university library search), and even books. I added one book that gives several pages of history on this website to the article.4meter4 (talk) 22:28, 22 October 2019 (UTC)
 * Keep per above arguments. Passes WP:GNG. Rollidan (talk) 21:15, 24 October 2019 (UTC)
