[edit] Maplewiki
Contested prod; a reason for contesting was given on Talk:Maplewiki (effectively the Pokemon test), but I disagree; Alexa worse than 1000000, no real assertions of notability. --ais523 10:13, 1 September 2006 (UTC)
- Delete - No secondary sources given/found. Less than 40 unique google hits. Wickethewok 13:24, 1 September 2006 (UTC)

If I were to reattach this to Mapletip.com, the maplewiki.net domain was RECENTLY purchased as you can see on Whois, therefore the Alexa ranking is DEFINETLY low. And also, unique google hits will also be low due to the newness. When Maplewiki was attached to Mapletip, it obtained MANY articles with many people helping every day. But now, you are going with a new domain that was recently purchased for Maplewiki. Please reconsider. Sources, are of coures in the Maplewiki itself.

Wait, so you mean the articles itself are unreliable as in no sources? If you're talking about the monster database the source is Mapletip itself, which is very relibale as we have built it ourselves. Please before you delete tell me what is 'unreliable'. 68.78.148.16 16:20, 1 September 2006 (UTC)
- See WP:RS and WP:V if it's unclear to you , but the articles doesn't cite any reliable, third party sources. In general, Maplewiki is not an authenticating source. WilyD 16:31, 1 September 2006 (UTC)
Very well, delete it for now, I will remake the article when we fix the issue. Mapletip 18:43, 1 September 2006 (UTC)
