[edit] Stratics

I don't feel this establishes notability. Seems like just another fan website. Talrias (t | e | c) 15:40, 18 March 2006 (UTC)

• Keep This isn't just another fansite. It is a group of sites that cover multiple MMOGs and they have had multiple interviews and such with developers and such from the games. 128174 forum members, major advertisers, ~500,000 hits on google[1], Alexa ranking of 7851 [2], Gamespy reprinted them [3] so they meet 3 of WP:WEB. kotepho 19:08, 18 March 2006 (UTC)
• Keep While it could do with more information about notability, I think kotepho covers my view neatly above. --Fuzzie (talk) 19:30, 18 March 2006 (UTC)
• Keep per above. This is hardly a fan website. —Wrathchild ^(talk) 04:34, 19 March 2006 (UTC)
• Keep per above --Masssiveego 08:43, 19 March 2006 (UTC)
• Keep Although it sometimes is very hard to establish true notability of subculture online phenomena, it is important that they be documented, if only in an historical perspective. This one, actually, with over 500 000 hits on Google, seems worth keeping.Cosmicdiadrone 00:38, 23 March 2006 (UTC)
