Completing listing of article for deletion on behalf of with reason "Not notable, perhaps once notorious. Entire article mostly talks about AOL release of search data, which is the only part which is notable." No opinion on deletion of article myself.  role player 17:32, 13 July 2008 (UTC)
 * Keep or Merge with AOL search data scandal. –  xeno cidic  ( talk ) 17:50, 13 July 2008 (UTC)


 * Keep. The subject is sufficiently notable as to have inspired an eponymous play, and the article has a substantial amount of references, indicating that a number of reliable sources find it noteworthy (although one or two of the references may not be up to WP:RS standards). On the other hand, I wouldn't oppose a merge if we decided that it wasn't sufficiently notable to present us with the awkwardness of having a subject that looks like a Wikipedia username (although a merge won't entirely eliminate this problem). ~ Jeff Q (talk) 18:42, 13 July 2008 (UTC)
 * Merge and redirect to AOL search data scandal... no question. --Pmedema (talk) 19:27, 13 July 2008 (UTC)
 * Merge and Redirect to AOL search data scandal. Not notable alone, but the sources included would be good for the scandal article, especially the one from The Consumerist Doc StrangeMailbox Logbook 19:40, 13 July 2008 (UTC)
