[edit] Death Valley Driver Video Review

The article in question is an online fanzine, with nothing in the text to suggest that the fanzine has enough influence or renown to render it notable. Much of the text is dedicated to describing the forums of the fanzine, or to regailing the reader with somewhat puerile tales of the antics of the writers. The article is certainly long and in-depth, but this alone should not preclude it from being deleted. I think the authors of the article have failed to satisfactorily demonstrate why the fanzine is notable enough that it deserves an encyclopedia article (e.g. what is the circulation / readership of the fanzine?).

• Delete - Article about a messageboard and the residents thereunto. Ruby 18:40, 21 January 2006 (UTC)

• Keep*-Obviously biased (I was the one who wrote a lot of it), but it's about a wellknown area of the wrestling fandom area.. (David Yellope, 11:16 AM, 1/21/06
• Delete per Ruby. Stifle 23:55, 22 January 2006 (UTC)
• Delete the site has no really value and does not need a wiki entry. If DVDVR has one every Wrestling site should have one and therefore wiki would have way too many entries
• Weak keep - one of the more well-known professional wrestling sites on the net. Essexmutant 11:28, 23 January 2006 (UTC)
• Keep Just because a few people find it irrelevant, doesn't mean it should go. It has signifigance for other people, and provides easy access information for people curious about the site and reviews.
• Delete - Vanity article regarding an irrelevant smarkboard. - Chadbryant 20:53, 24 January 2006 (UTC)
• Keep - I need my ALREADY INFLATED EGO~! BOOSTED~!. Love u all lol xxx DeanRasmussen 16:59, 24 January 2006 (UTC)
• Delete - Guess "Dean" is tired of pretending to be the board's founder and is trying to torpedo the DVDVR article by pretending to be from the board.. does Wiki delete accounts used for harassment? Probably not, but still.... DMY

(note: This was not a vote, I already commented above (the 11:16 am David Yellope Vote (you know, DMY?) my vote is Keep.. just commenting that "Dean Rasmussen" is obviously someone who dislikes the board, and is attempting to torpedo the whole thing. and if you'll forgive editing twice in a row, that several of the votes to delete on this thread are among those who have been vandalizing the main article)

• Keep* Its one of the largest fan sites on the Internet. No matter what one may think of some fo the members there, it DOES have relevance. TruthCrusader
