Teic.ie

 * – (View AfD) (View log)

Online maganize launched October 2009. Only claim of notability is that it was founded by a notable journalist. I believe it does not meet WP:WEB. Singularity42 (talk) 21:05, 1 November 2009 (UTC)


 * Keep. Main claim of notability is as noted above. However, the site also produces news for Business and Finance, a major Irish publication that has been publishing continually for over 50 years. I am working on gathering more references and citations in addition to this. Request 48 hours to improve article. Robfitzgib (talk) 22:24, 1 November 2009 (UTC)


 * Delete. The "notable" journalist does not even have his own article so how does an on-line magazine he has produced need one? It looks like commercial promotion to me.  Teapot  george Talk  23:38, 1 November 2009 (UTC)

Delete or keep, it's not a commerical. I have no connection to the site. On which point, can we move it back to speedy deltion? Obviously I want it to stay but I don't want to write a long entry only to have it removed and would appreciate a quick decision. Robfitzgib (talk) 11:47, 2 November 2009 (UTC)
 * Can you provide a a couple third-party reliable sources that have covered the website that would allow it to meet criteria one of WP:WEB? If so, that would probably support a speedy keep of the article (which I'm sure you would prefer than a speedy delete). Singularity42 (talk) 15:05, 2 November 2009 (UTC)

It's not that important to me. I'll just keep working on other, principally print, titles. Robfitzgib (talk) 20:08, 2 November 2009 (UTC)

 * Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so consensus may be reached.


 * Delete New online publication that lacks evidence of notability outside of what's inherited from the reputation of a contributor, which is not sufficient. Steven Walling 05:38, 12 November 2009 (UTC)
 * Delete per the lack of reliable sources. One of the links in the article is this, which reads like a press release. The other two links are to the online magazine's website and the founder's website; primary sources do not establish notability. 's assertions that Teic.ie is notable because the founder is notable is wrong per WP:INHERITED. A merge to the founder, Adam Maguire, cannot be done because it is a red link; therefore, this should be deleted for failing WP:N. Cunard (talk) 00:18, 15 November 2009 (UTC)
