[edit] Workopolis

Blatant advertising, written at least in part in the first person. — Bill 21:29, 23 Oct 2004 (UTC)

• Delete, seems pretty obvious what this is doing here. Mo0 21:47, 23 Oct 2004 (UTC)
• Keep. Alexa Traffic Rank for workopolis.com: 1,563. It does, of course, need cleansing. Dang it, just found[1]. Sigh Niteowlneils 23:14, 23 Oct 2004 (UTC)
• The current article is unquestionably crap, but the site is a notable Canadian web venture that would merit a keep if the article were improved. I'll stub it. Bearcat 23:48, 23 Oct 2004 (UTC)
• Keep. The current version of the article does a much better job of demonstrating notability and avoiding advertisement. Factitious 09:01, Oct 25, 2004 (UTC)
• Keep. Deletionism is killing articles before they have a chance to grow. Give it time, it is an important topic. --ShaunMacPherson 19:26, 27 Oct 2004 (UTC)
• Please attempt some research into the topic before nominating for deletion. Nominator has valid points about the article, yet they do not merit nomination for deletion via the deletion policy. This Vfd should be defaulted to keep, but i'll vote keep anywys. —siroχo 13:37, Oct 29, 2004 (UTC)
  • Sorry, I only saw Bearcat's revision, this was a valid nomination. But as a general rule, try mopping things up before immediately nominating them for deletion. Without a small amount of eventualism, Wikipedia would have very few articles. —siroχo
• Keep. Guanaco 22:56, 30 Oct 2004 (UTC)
