[edit] BoxTorrents.com

Preivously prodded by Nagle (talk • contribs • count) who cited WP:WEB concerns and advertising. Looks like blatant advertising to me as well. Traffic ranking (12,000) does not meet the 10,000 requirement and I couldn't find any mention of it by a media organization. Hbdragon88 07:52, 22 June 2006 (UTC)

  • Delete as per nom 213.42.21.76 08:03, 22 June 2006 (UTC)
  • Weak keep iff cleaned up. —Quarl (talk) 2006-06-22 08:47Z
  • Delete per nom. --Coredesat 08:55, 22 June 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete as non-notable and advertising. The fact that the bulk of the article is defining standard BitTorrent concepts (not BoxTorrent-specific) doesn't help either. Paddles TC 12:16, 22 June 2006 (UTC)
  • Water-thin keep if cleaned up and npov'd, but that probably won't happen. --Mincetro 12:49, 22 June 2006 (UTC)
  • Weak keep Alexa cut-off point is actually 100,000 [1] + cleanup tag to be added. Tyrenius 17:04, 22 June 2006 (UTC)
    • Huh, when I asked about it [2] on another AFD, I was told that it was 10,000 or better. Hbdragon88 19:19, 22 June 2006 (UTC)
  • Strong Delete This is clearly an Ad to me, even with a thank you note added by the original author. Besides, introducing and linking to sites which is likely to host copyvio materials may get Wikipedia in trouble. I don't want Wikipedia being accused an accomplice of DMCA violation. --WinHunter (talk) 18:53, 22 June 2006 (UTC)
  • Week keep, notable only as a file-leech site. Voice of Treason 19:38, 22 June 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete. Passes WP:WEB but reads like an ad. --Danielrocks123 talk contribs 00:35, 23 June 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete non-notable, advertising. --Musicpvm 05:19, 23 June 2006 (UTC)
