[edit] 4chan

Delete. Vanity page on minor non-notable message board. —Preceding unsigned comment added by BabbleOn (talk • contribs) The author of this nomination is BabbleOn (talk · contribs), who had at the time of this writing exactly three edits -- two to this AfD, one to today's page of AfDs, none to the article (in other words, no placement of the required AfD notice.)

• Keep, alexa rank 6,146 [1] Kappa 01:24, 16 February 2006 (UTC)
• Keep per above. It is one of the most popular message boards of all time, as well. 01:25, 16 February 2006 (UTC)
• Keep. Are you kidding? This is a huge website (not quite as big as OffTopic.com, but still definitely notable). --Rory096 01:28, 16 February 2006 (UTC)
• Keep. 4chan is hardly a "minor non-notable message board" and the fact that a brand-new user headed straight for AfD and completed every step of it successfully except placing the appropriate notice on the article itself pretty much says "bad-faith nomination" to me. -- Antaeus Feldspar 01:30, 16 February 2006 (UTC)
• Keep per Kappa Ruby 01:34, 16 February 2006 (UTC)
• Speedy Keep - Extremely notable. --lightdarkness ^(talk) 01:39, 16 February 2006 (UTC)
• Keep. 4chan is long-standing and highly popular website, and basically the definitive English-language imageboard. I suspect this nomination is based on BabbleOn personally disliking 4chan rather than any good-faith belief that the board is non-notable. Redxiv 01:40, 16 February 2006 (UTC)
• Keep for all of the above reasons, possible bad-faith nom? Snurks ^{T C} 03:57, 16 February 2006 (UTC)
• Keep bad faith nomination for sure. Deckiller 04:09, 16 February 2006 (UTC)
• Speedy keep sure is speedy!! -- Bobdoe (Talk) 05:12, 16 February 2006 (UTC)
