[edit] ArtRocker

Delete as non-notable journal. Alexa ranks the home page as #648,519, per [1]. Feel free to correct me if any of this is wrong. SYCTHOS^talk 00:25, 27 January 2006 (UTC)

Speedy keep (nomination withdrew) with expansion and redirect from Artrocker. The 600,000s are high? I'll be sure to keep that in mind in the future. SYCTHOS^talk 21:20, 27 January 2006 (UTC)

• Keep the 600,000s are actually pretty high up for Alexa rankings. I edited the article a little. Look at the web site -- they have a lot of activity there. As a bi-weekly ditributed by Borders, they probably have a circulation in excess of 200,000 -- way over the notability threshold. They sell ads for £1000 per page, but don't list their circ. --James S. 02:30, 27 January 2006 (UTC)
• Delete 600,000's means we would have to nearly double the size of the Wikipedia to accomodate all the website articles. And "probably" 200,000 units doesn't work in an encyclopedia, give us hard numbers. Ruby 02:35, 27 January 2006 (UTC)

  • Please give a reason. Turnstep 15:43, 27 January 2006 (UTC)
• Keep Too bad circulation data isn't available, but aside, agree on notability criteria being met based on distribution/web activity. -- Samir |Talk ∙ Contribs | 11:12, 27 January 2006 (UTC)
• Keep per research and facts establishing notability by Nrcprm2026. Turnstep 15:43, 27 January 2006 (UTC)
• Keep It's a newspaper more than a website. (Quite surprising the alexa rank is that low, though.) If kept it should be moved to Artrocker. Flowerparty■ 15:46, 27 January 2006 (UTC)
• Delete my own site has an Alexa ranking around 350,000, but I see no need for an encyclopedia entry about it--nor this. Ergot 16:46, 27 January 2006 (UTC)
• Keep - seems to be more of a print magazine than a website, so Alexa rating shouldn't be the primary factor here. Gets a lot of Google hits and seems notable enough. Snurks ^{T C} 21:06, 27 January 2006 (UTC)
• Weak keep per Snurks. —Quarl ^(talk) 2006-01-27 21:14Z
