There's no indication of notability and it seems to simply be a promotional page for the site. Yaksar (let's chat) 23:33, 29 January 2011 (UTC)

If you looked at the page it clearly states that its in Beta Testing. I know wikipedia has a dislike for all things airsoft but this page will have refs from other sources once it is live and the have it nominated for deletion is just plain stupid. -- Paul Firmin 08:58, 31 January 2011 (UTC)
 * Honestly, Wikipedia has nothing against airsoft. Your wiki, however, is not something that belongs in an encyclopedia. I encourage you to keep editing Wikipedia, and I'm sure most of your contributions are very helpful. But Wikipedia is not just a compendium of everything. I'd suggest checking out Notability. If you've got any more questions, you're welcome to ask on my talk page. --Yaksar (let's chat) 09:47, 31 January 2011 (UTC)


 * Delete - No coverage in reliable sources to establish notability. -- Whpq (talk) 17:04, 31 January 2011 (UTC)


 * Keep - There are loads of pages on wikipedia with no reliable sources on them and they simply have the Template:Refimprove template added to it. In fact there is well over 500 pages on wikipedia that have this template on it. If this page is deleted can it be added again once it has reliable sources? I do understand that articles on wikipedia need to be sourced but as the site is still in testing and not live it has not such sources yet but it is due to have two once live. -- Paul Firmin 22:37, 1 February 2011 (UTC)
 * Delete. I'm sorry Paul but I'm not finding anything in google or google news that satisfies WP:GNG or WP:WEB. --Ron Ritzman (talk) 01:50, 6 February 2011 (UTC)
