[edit] Best On Travel Network, Inc

Sounds like advertising to me. Originally contained links to various services offered by the company, but they were removed by the author with the prod tag. Fightindaman 17:45, 1 March 2006 (UTC)

  • The entry has been updated to conform to the Wikipedia standards.I used the Wikipedia entry of Hotels.com, Travel Dynamics International & TripAdvisor--among others--as points of reference. Hopefully these changes will satisfy Wikipedia, as well as, it's vigilant users. --Neuralstate 18:57, 1 March 2006 (UTC)
    • Comment:But this still doesn't demonstrate that it's notable. Bestonbahamas.com has an Alexa ranking of 490,365 (vs. Hotels.com at 792). Fightindaman 19:08, 1 March 2006 (UTC)
    • Comment:And Travel Dynamics International has an Alexa rating of 808,354 vs Carnival Cruise Lines of 5,434. So what's your point?
      • Comment:808,354 doesn't sound notable enough for a page either, but that does nothing to demonstrate the notability of this company. Fightindaman 19:22, 1 March 2006 (UTC)
      • Comment:Actually it does. It demonstrates that your initial use of Alexa as a measurement of relevance and notability for entries within Wikipedia is flawed. Furthermore, it demonstrates that even an apples to apples comparisons of websites--which your comparison was not— should not be the standard bearer for admittance or deletion in Wikipedia.--Neuralstate 19:34, 1 March 2006 (UTC)
