[edit] Xm411

Non-notable web forum Naconkantari e|t||c|m 00:41, 3 April 2006 (UTC)

• Delete per WP:WEB and WP:VSCA. 10 Google hits, which is quite unimpressive for a website. Royboycrashfan 00:44, 3 April 2006 (UTC)

Comment: Huh? I clicked that link and got 122,000 hits! --Icarus 07:46, 3 April 2006 (UTC)

Results 1 - 10 of about 148,000 for "Xm411", sounds like a Keep to me. —Locke Cole • t • c 10:25, 3 April 2006 (UTC)

• Keep, Google results were severly misrepresented. Site has 148,000 hits on Google. Also ranked 33,372 on Alexa. —Locke Cole • t • c 10:25, 3 April 2006 (UTC) Changing to Delete per Indi. Bizarre goings-on at Google.. —Locke Cole • t • c 12:01, 3 April 2006 (UTC)

Comment: Well, Google hits and Alexa ranks shouldn't be the only judges in a case like this. See WP:GOOG. I just listed my results to clear up the "only 10 hits" statement in the first vote versus the 150,000 hits thing. I prefer checking out distinct hits. But anyway, even without Google or Alexa tests, it doesn't meet WP:WEB. — Indi ^{[ talk ]} 12:29, 3 April 2006 (UTC)

• Delete, nn website. --Terence Ong 10:40, 3 April 2006 (UTC)
• Delete, 91 distinct Google hits, and 308 distinct hits without quotes for some reason. Several of those search results are Wikipedia mirrors. Not notable enough for me. Keep a mention of it on the XM article, but not here. — Indi ^{[ talk ]} 11:55, 3 April 2006 (UTC)

Keep Should we also delete Google for being an advertisment for a website? Ztsmart199.201.168.100 15:35, 3 April 2006 (UTC)

• Well, we have criteria for including website articles in Wikipedia; Google passes these and this website does not. — Kimchi.sg | Talk 15:44, 3 April 2006 (UTC)

What criteria are required for an article about a website?

• Delete. The blue color of the WP:WEB everyone's been citing means you should try clicking on it. Melchoir 20:31, 3 April 2006 (UTC)
