[edit] OldVersion.com

Prod was removed by User:132.205.44.134. The subject of this article doesn't meet WP:WEB intrinsically, as it just redistributes software; that software isn't owned by the website itself. The article makes no assertions of notability, and isn't referenced at all. Mikeblas 02:11, 21 September 2006 (UTC)

• Keep - count the Ghits. Improve the page. Not a "popular" site by it's very nature, a resource for those who find preference or necessity dictates using a previous version. Ace of Risk 15:56, 21 September 2006 (UTC)

  • Comment. Google Hits aren't relevant; incoming links aren't a part of WP:WEB. WP:WEB is about third-party media coverage, awards, or republishing. This site fails all three criteria. -- Mikeblas 15:45, 27 September 2006 (UTC)
• Weak keep probably a stub only explaining what it is and what it does. (sorry, forgot to sign) SirFozzie 06:02, 22 September 2006 (UTC)
• Weak keep — perhaps there should be an article about old version download websites and oldversion.com could be offered a mention. Or a comparison of good software download websites, if this were to be deleted. -Mardus 15:17, 27 September 2006 (UTC)
• keep please the site is very useful and notable too with over half million google hits Yuckfoo 01:17, 28 September 2006 (UTC)
