[edit] BOOMj
No establishment of notability. WP:WEB, no awards, no significant coverage by sources independent of the subject. Press releases don't meet that. Crossmr (talk) 18:50, 18 February 2008 (UTC)
- Delete: I deleted all the unreferenced material in the article weeks ago, and no one else has found any reliable sources. Sems to have been ad/spam. Snowfire51 (talk) 22:17, 18 February 2008 (UTC)
That is such a joke, this is clearly notable. Been in the new york times, top 23,000 on alexa, was featured on nbc, is publicly traded and it was even on forbes tv a while back. all of this is in the old versions of the article but someone keeps deleting stuff from it, prob from a rival site or something. Def not worth deleting in my book. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 12.195.95.182 (talk) 21:57, 20 February 2008 (UTC)
- Provide the links then. This is a debate for deletion and claims of notability need to come with reliable citations.--Crossmr (talk) 22:52, 20 February 2008 (UTC)
Keep I have provided additional information and a verifiable third-party citation. It now barely conforms to WP:ORG.--Sallicio

If you feel that it is should not be deleted and falls within the guidelines of notability, don't whine about it, find the references and bring it up to standards. --Sallicio 19:20, 26 February 2008 (UTC)

Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, Jerry talk ¤ count/logs 23:24, 26 February 2008 (UTC)- This AfD nomination was incomplete. It is listed now. DumbBOT (talk) 13:58, 27 February 2008 (UTC)
- Keep per Sallicio's sources, seems to just pass notability. Ten Pound Hammer and his otters • (Broken clamshells•Otter chirps) 14:42, 27 February 2008 (UTC)
- Weak keep: Alexa ratings does not assert notability. With that said, it has some prominence and weakly passes WP:ORG. seicer | talk | contribs 16:23, 27 February 2008 (UTC)
