[edit] Matt and that

Blog, no evidence of notability given. --W(t) 16:07, 17 March 2006 (UTC)

Did you read it? There are a couple items of notability about this site. --Hawkeye216 16:07, 17 March 2006 (UTC)

  • Delete per WP:WEB. An Alexa rank over a million doesn't support "massive popularity". There are millions of blogs on the web. This is one of them. Fan1967 16:47, 17 March 2006 (UTC)

You are assuming Alexa is a great way of ranking website popularity? Go read the Wikipedia Alexa page to further educate yourself. Additionally, if you don't like that single line about popularity, then remove it. It shouldn't count against the overall validity of the article. -- Hawkeye216 12:09, 17 March 2006 (EST)

  • Hawkeye216 It is not acceptable to edit or remove anyone else's comments in an AfD discussion. Fan1967 19:13, 17 March 2006 (UTC)

The article contains two reference links to outside sources about the website/blog, what more are you looking for? - Hawkeye216 19:30, 17 March 2006 (UTC)

Importance, notability.--TM 19:51, 17 March 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete per nom and socks. --TM 19:51, 17 March 2006 (UTC)

Apparently unless a web page was singlehandedly responsible for the fall of the Roman Empire, it isn't "notable" enough for you guys. Jesus. --Hawkeye216 19:59, 17 March 2006 (UTC)

  • Pretty much, yeah. Delete, nn blog. User:Zoe|(talk) 21:43, 17 March 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete. While there are some outside sources, they may not meet our verifiability criteria. A Google search for "Matt and that" comes up with people using the phrase "Matt and that" rather than references to this blog at least on the front page see [1].

Google News comes up with the same phenomenon. This fails our website notability criteria. Capitalistroadster 00:32, 18 March 2006 (UTC)

  • Delete as non-notable per all non-sock votes above. --Kinu t/c 01:45, 18 March 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete. Not notable, just deal with it. Deizio 01:57, 18 March 2006 (UTC)

Try searching for "mattandthat" Einstein. [2]--Hawkeye216 02:18, 18 March 2006 (UTC)
