Wikipedia talk:Articles for deletion/ConnectU

user Northern writes: "This article should be deleted since the website ConnectU is not a known project. Its rating is very low and this website is only known because of its connection with Facebook. As we may see from the reference section that it only lists articles about lawsuits by ConnectU against Facebook and in my opinion that is not enough. The website must have a notability of its own and I think this is not the case with ConnectU. Northern 11:13, 24 August 2007 (UTC)"

ConnectU is in fact a notable website and company, and most importantly a known project. ConnectU's trade secrets, business plan, source code, all allegedly missapropriated by Mark Zuckerberg (Facebook founder), are the basis upon which the entire web 2.0 social-networking phenomena are built on.

The relative success of the project or rank of the website is not grounds for deletion. What is a determinant is the relative value, impact, or importance a given project may have had. ConnectU is inextricably linked to web 2.0 social-networking, Facebook, college dormroom internet startups, etc. The list goes on and on.
