YTMND
Is this web-vanity or a subject worthy of note? Is an Alexa traffic rank of 91,947 sufficient for inclusion? Why or why not? --GRider\talk 19:25, 8 Mar 2005 (UTC)
 * Keep. Like someone else said, if there's something wrong with it, then fix it.
 * Delete due to Wikipedia not being a web guide, this website not being particularly notable, and the article being almost entirely trivia that nobody but the people involved could possibly care about. Andrew Lenahan - St ar bli nd 20:15, Mar 8, 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete. Personally I feel that as it stands, the article contains too much irrelevant information. As I was thinking of how I would precis it, I realized that the remaining information would be pretty thin.  Given that and how I don't see how spawning a few equally obscure offshoots makes it notable, I vote get rid of it. Katefan0 21:40, Mar 8, 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete, ad, sounds like Max is tryin' to create a buzz. Wonder if he paid for that SC pic. Wyss 01:03, 9 Mar 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete, not notable, forum advertisment. Megan1967 02:58, 9 Mar 2005 (UTC)

 * Keep. I don't see anything wrong with having a page on YTMND. If there's something wrong with it, fix it. --ɛvɪs 07:10, Mar 16, 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete advertising/self-promotion for a non-notable forum--nixie 07:14, 16 Mar 2005 (UTC)
 * Merge. Anyone who did not know what the letters stood for should still be able to find an explanation when encountering references in Internet discussions. I propose that the Internet phenomenon page have a section explaining items not worthy of their own entry.
 * Delete. Not notable. --Carnildo 07:53, 19 Mar 2005 (UTC)
 * Keep. I think all it needs is some editing to get rid of some of the less related information. Also maybe if there are any more links advertised, get them moved to the external links section. Luffy 3:31 PM EST, 19th of March, 2005
 * Keep. YTMND is too valuable as a cornerstone for internet culture, IMO. The article needs to be torn down from scratch and redone. Ghost Freeman 01:20, 22 Mar 2005 (UTC)
 * Keep. I agree with Ghost on this one. The article could afford a revamp, but by no means a deletion.  If this site can house a list of shock sites, why not something on the history of an internet fad?
