Non-notable website spinoff that doesn't appear to have made an impact on its field.  MBisanz  talk 01:07, 24 April 2010 (UTC)
 * Like we're talking academic stuff here: "impact", "field", etc. What impact did The Pirate Bay make? The only question here is whether it satisfies WP:WEB/WP:GNG. Pcap ping  13:21, 25 April 2010 (UTC)


 * Delete per nom. As well there are hundreds of torrent sites much more notable then this one.   Mr. C.C. Hey yo!I didn't do it! 03:32, 24 April 2010 (UTC)
 * We do have articles on quite a few (more or less) notable BT search engines. See the "search engines" row in Template:BitTorrent. They all rely on pretty much the same sources for notability. Pcap ping  12:43, 25 April 2010 (UTC)

 * Weak keep. Slyck.com, which is used as ref in the article, generally counts as a reliable source for torrent stuff, and so does TorrentFreak, which also covered it  . Pcap  ping  11:54, 25 April 2010 (UTC)
 * Keep. TorrentFreak called yourBittorrent one of the Top 25 torrent sites of 2009 . It is listed 3rd on About.com's Torrent Site list, which lists the top 25 site of about.com readers . According to About.com this list is assembled from hundreds of reader email suggestions. Calling this website a "non-notable spinoff" is crap. This site has been running since -2003- and has about 250.000 visitors daily according to compete.com . Renox (talk) 03:15, 28 April 2010 (UTC)
 * Futhermore, yourBittorrent was also mentioned in the Greek newspaper 'Press Bytes' and myBittorrent (the former name) was mentioned in a few books,  & . Renox (talk) 04:58, 28 April 2010 (UTC)
 * You should add some of that info to the article. Pcap ping  06:55, 28 April 2010 (UTC)

I don't even see why this is questionable: it's a notable torrent site, it's popular and it's obviously "made an impact"- really, the punctiliousness of some of the editors has a negative effect on the wiki. I don't see how leaving information OUT of the wiki helps anyone.
 * Keep, as I totally agree with the above. 208.88.110.98 (talk) 19:09, 28 April 2010 (UTC)
