Teenwag

 * – (View AfD) (View log)

Several reasons. Firstly, I'm not sure it meets WP:WEB. Secondly, it reads like an advert. Even the external links are advert-like. And a similar page was deleted in December 2006. I'm posting this here because I admit I'm not up on this kind of stuff. And maybe this is just something big that I've never heard of. WoohookittyWoohoo! 08:50, 24 March 2007 (UTC)
 * Keep and Clean-up A Google search of Teenwag brought back 57,000 results, while a Google search of Teenwag.com brought back 24,200 results. I say that makes it Notable, although it does read like a huge advert. So Keep and add tag --Twipie 09:05, 24 March 2007 (UTC)


 * Delete, fails WP:WEB. No notability or coverage by reliable sources. Zero Google News Archive results. -- Dhartung | Talk 09:29, 24 March 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete Isn't verifiable. No media coverage by independent sources. -- KZ      Talk  •  Vandal  •  Contrib  10:15, 24 March 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete - most of the Google hits are hits on the site or blogs about it. Less that 1000 independant hits and none of the first few pages are reliable sources. No news articles to be seen. Fails website notability requirements. - Peripitus (Talk) 11:44, 24 March 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete per nom. —   pd_THOR  undefined | 15:07, 24 March 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete as spam. Fails WP:WEB, no 3rd party reliable sources to establish notability. User:Loopthaq has removed the afd template from the teenwag article and added teenwag links to various articles under external links, just like User:Webforall has, leading me to believe they are the same person (web stopped just when loop started). Smells like a spam campaign to me. &mdash; O cat ecir  Talk  21:28, 26 March 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete - Fails WP:WEB, and google-count is no test for notability. No secondary sources.
