[edit] Umbranet

I see no indication that this meets WP:WEB or is in any way important. Note that while it does get numerous google hits, as an IRC many of these hits are not helpful to determining notability. Was prodded a good while back, but the tag was removed. Indrian 14:23, 21 June 2006 (UTC)

• Delete as non-notable web forum. <10k google hits is not much. —Quarl ^(talk) 2006-06-22 08:36Z

 AFD relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so that consensus may be reached.

• Delete per WP:WEB. Alexa ranking of 777,214[1]--TBCTaLk?!? 01:58, 28 June 2006 (UTC)
• Delete. Umbranet returns 145 unique google hits [2].--Fuhghettaboutit 02:13, 28 June 2006 (UTC)
• Delete, fails WP:WEB. --Coredesat talk 04:30, 28 June 2006 (UTC)
• Keep there are many specialized IRC networks with articles on Wikipedia (DeltaAnime, Enter The Game, etc). This could be valuable information to someone trying to communicate with the bands listed, or just trying to find a music oriented IRC network. --Nscheffey^(T/C) 07:38, 28 June 2006 (UTC)
  • Comment, a resource to communicate with those bands would be a personal website. I don't think that their Wikipedia page should be that website. --Alphachimp ^talk 07:43, 28 June 2006 (UTC)

What I was saying was that if it were true that these bands regularly were active on Umbranet, that would at least deserve mention in their articles. Even if that turns out to be untrue or unverifiable, how many IRC networks are you going to put up for deletion? Should Enter The Game, Blitzed, and ChatAutism be co-nominated? Is there some policy, proposed or otherwise, to deal with IRC networks that you could point me towards? --Nscheffey^(T/C) 07:56, 28 June 2006 (UTC)

• Delete, WP:WEB and the whole thing reads like an ad to me --Alphachimp ^talk 07:43, 28 June 2006 (UTC)
