Delete. Maybe merge with the page Yahoo?

Keep. It meets notability. "If the product or service is notable, it can be broken out into its own article." CNN Money (second reference) describing it as "the second most popular Internet reference site" — after Wikipedia — should be enough. Novangelis (talk) 21:20, 12 April 2009 (UTC)

Speedy Keep. This shouldn't even be up for debate. It is notable in its own right, as the article is supported by several reliable secondary sources. Also, original nom failed to provide reasoning for deletion nomination. Khalfani Khaldun  21:30, 12 April 2009 (UTC)
 * Keep as independently notable. Alansohn (talk) 21:33, 12 April 2009 (UTC)
 * Speedy Keep there are several third party articles with meaningful coverage (CNN, Slate, etc.), seems fine. Speedy keep as the nominator fails to provide a reason for deletion. --Chiliad22 (talk) 21:52, 12 April 2009 (UTC)

Strong/Speedy Keep - Why are people persisting with this rubbish? It is notable because the website is as well known as this damn website. This page was originally nominated for deletion by an IP address looking to waste peoples time, and it seems they have succeeded. I'm all for free-speech, but just because it exists, it doesn't mean we need to debate stupid and nonsensical opinions. Alan 16 talk  21:58, 12 April 2009 (UTC)
