Wikipedia talk:Articles for deletion/Green search engines

Hello again!

Well it´s true that one can discuss what the term "green search engine" really means and maybe it is so that one should discuss the different types of green search engines in the article itself. I believe however that most people would find the two engines already mentionned in the article to be the greenest as they do aim to plant trees and where the first ones out. After them many others have appeared so it is not unreasonable to think that this is a new internet trend (there where some "charity" search engines before, but not totally green ones).

I think that the term "green search engine" has been coined and was surprised not to find it already in wikipedia. So I believe that the article is relevant myself. As more and more "green search engines" are appearing I think it would be negligence not to include an article about it in the wiki.

Of course one could work more on the article and surely people will.

Ecocho has already an article in the wiki so why not the term "green search engines" itself?

I mean Google and Yahoo might copy the concept anytime in the future but first out in April this year (2008) where Ecocho and Treehoo and I think that is reason enough to include them in the article.

For references to this new term as it is mainly used on the net see here:
