The result of the debate was - kept

Ununbium
Delete - more sciencecruft vanity elements. This does not exist and is not officially recognized. Google searches throw up no serious literature, only Wikipedia mirrors. Trollminator 20:40, 24 Nov 2004 (UTC) Keep although it's quite likely to still be a stub for the next 10 years.
 * Strong keep; it's been synthesised, ("does not exist" - what, do we have to turn an accelerator over to making it 24/7 to keep an atom of it in existence at all times for it to be worthy of treatment?), and the concept of a "vanity element" is nonsensical. Shimgray 20:59, 24 Nov 2004 (UTC)
 * It is simply not notable enough. How many people are really interested in this? It's extreme sciencecruft. Trollminator 21:04, 24 Nov 2004 (UTC)
 * Why this and not Roentgenium? The only fundamental difference is that one has been named and one hasn't (they're pretty slow about these things). Shimgray 21:33, 24 Nov 2004 (UTC)

 * Keep. I am fed up with deletion trolls. Mark Richards 22:25, 24 Nov 2004 (UTC)
 * Keep. This is clear and categorical abuse by the lister. [[User:GRider|GRider\talk]] 22:26, 24 Nov 2004 (UTC)

 * Keep. Clearly encyclopedic. Abuse of VfD. jni 09:22, 25 Nov 2004 (UTC)
 * Keep. Delete the VfDcruft. [[en:RaD Man|RaD Man (talk)]] 15:30, 25 Nov 2004 (UTC)
 * Keep. Jayjg 21:43, 25 Nov 2004 (UTC)
 * Strong keep. VfDcruft!  Haha... I like that term.  --Idont Havaname 00:59, 26 Nov 2004 (UTC)
 * Strong keep. It's in the Periodic Table, and this should be reason enough to keep this article - roentgenium (unununium) also does not exist in principle, but we can make this element should we want it, and the same applies with ununbium. --Andrew 19:50, 27 Nov 2004 (UTC)
