Delete. I cannot locate reliable sources to substantiate the existence of this article. JBsupreme ( talk ) ✄ ✄ ✄	 06:39, 15 April 2010 (UTC)
 * Speedy delete A7 - This article about web content contains no credible assertion of notability. - DustFormsWords (talk) 07:10, 15 April 2010 (UTC)
 * It's not about any particular websites. I don't think that WP:A7 applies. — Rankiri (talk) 17:57, 15 April 2010 (UTC)

 * Comment the concept of "Top 100", "Top 50" etc sites, as described in this article, is certainly widespread, and the term "Topsite" does appear to be used to refer to them - can't offer a recommendation though, as I'm not sure what constitutes notability for general web site concepts (as opposed to a specific web site). -- Boing!   said Zebedee  16:37, 15 April 2010 (UTC)


 * Redirect to toplist, as the generally-used term for what is being described here. No objection to a delete, though, as "Topsite (www)" strikes me as being an extremely unlikely search term.  Heather (talk) 23:46, 15 April 2010 (UTC)
 * Generally used? According to who, exactly?  A redirect is impractical, the target article is even worse than this one. (!)   JBsupreme  ( talk ) ✄ ✄ ✄	 05:36, 20 April 2010 (UTC)
 * Delete. It should be noted that this is also being discussed at Articles for deletion/Toplist (due to a redirect being suggested I presume), but if this term has not received non-trivial coverage then I am afraid it should be deleted as well, not redirected to another article which is similarly lacking.

 * Delete. This seemed a suspect definition the first time I saw it, but I gave it the benefit of the doubt at the time. If you search google books for "topsite", you find the topsite (warez) meaning easily, but not this one. So, delete unless someone produces refs that this is widely used...
