[edit] Young politics

Young politics (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs)

Speedy deletion tag was removed by the creator. I suppose I could ask for speedy deletion again but I'd rather have wider input on this. First, given that the creator of the article is Youngpolitics (talk • contribs) and that these are his sole edits, we have to assume conflict of interest. Secondly, there does not seem to be any evidence of third-party coverage so notability is a big question mark. Third, the "latest news" on that website is "we are now on Wikipedia" so we might also consider the whole write-up to be spam. So why am I not asking for speedy deletion? hmmmm... I guess because I'm a sucker for kids with good intentions. Pascal.Tesson 02:09, 8 January 2007 (UTC)

• Delete, WP:NOT a webspace provider. This is a website/advertisment. They have basically put up their site on WP. The general rule is that someone not directly working for the organization should build a wikipedia article. meshach 02:29, 8 January 2007 (UTC)

• Speedy delete as corporate vanity. MER-C 04:19, 8 January 2007 (UTC)

Comment in all fairness, I'm pretty sure this is not a for-profit entity. Pascal.Tesson 04:29, 8 January 2007 (UTC)

Spam for a non-profit is still spam. MER-C 05:14, 8 January 2007 (UTC)

I'm certainly not denying that. But non-profit spam is not corporate vanity and is slightly lower on my personal meter of evil. Pascal.Tesson 05:18, 8 January 2007 (UTC)

• Delete. I don't see how this site satisfies any of the WP:WEB notability criteria. --Metropolitan90 05:29, 8 January 2007 (UTC)
