[edit] FreshNotes
Contested prod. Moving here as a courtesy to the reprodder. It's a "web discovery engine" which "is in development for a full beta release". NickelShoe (Talk) 17:34, 1 April 2006 (UTC)
- Delete - I don't think it's notable enough for an article. The user who created it referred to it as a "profile" [1], so perhaps he has misunderstood what Wikipedia is. I also don't think WP:WEB is satisfied. --Edwy 18:37, 1 April 2006 (UTC)
- I disagree. There are lots of companies with profiles on Wikipedia and many of them are not yet well known to everyone. Isn't the breadth of content one of the key benefits of Wikipedia? What is gained by deleting this article? Is there a concern that people will be outraged by Wikipedia having too much information? Should Wikipedia only be about Britney Spears and McDonalds?
- The articles need to meet certain criteria to be here, most of which revolve on the subject being externally verifiable by what Wikipedia considers to be reliable, third-party sources. As a piece of internet-based software, a better guideline to what is required for an article can be found at the Wikipedia:Notability (websites) guideline. If evidence can be provided demonstrating that the engine meets this guideline and the general policies and guidelines, then there should be no problem in keeping this in some form. -- Saberwyn 22:22, 1 April 2006 (UTC)
- Delete sounds like advertising to me. Fishhead64 22:12, 1 April 2006 (UTC)

- Delete As the original poster, I say fine, delete away. Sorry for trying to contribute. I'll be sure to come back when I learn something new about Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie.
