[edit] Bwn0x

IRC club; does not appear to be notable. Google search for bwn0x reports 24400 hits, however they seem to be massively duplicated with only 49 unique ones found. (To compare, Altavista finds 773 hits, Yahoo 776.) Delete. - Mike Rosoft 20:16, 6 December 2005 (UTC)

• bwn0x is definetly noteable, those hits are links to bwn0x team accomplishments, and when did notablility come to be defined as by the amount of google hits your able to conjour? Ask any of the few hundred thousand members of gamesurge, everyone has heard of bwn0x in our community

• From the article: "Recently, the bwn0x wikipedia article has been deleted by wikipedia admin FYCTravis." And looking at the history, what do I find but that this is indeed the case - not just once, but twice! Doesn't that make this a speedy delete? — Haeleth Talk 21:35, 6 December 2005 (UTC)
• Speedy delete (now tagged) and protect per Haeleth. Just zis  Guy, you know? ^[T]/_[C] (W) AfD? 21:41, 6 December 2005 (UTC)
• Speedily deleted. -- ChrisO 21:47, 6 December 2005 (UTC)
• I do not find a speedy deletion quite appropriate, since there was never a VfD vote. If an article is recreated after speedy deletion, it is not automatically a speedy candidate for being a re-creation. (It may well be one for the original reason for deletion, but it might also have been deleted in error.) I am not going to start an undeletion request, but I will vote for undeletion should somebody else do it. - Mike Rosoft 22:55, 6 December 2005 (UTC)
• I am apalled as to how you admins can justify taking down an icon of IRC and professional computer gamers? bwn0x is more than a club, it is a word (a noun, verb and adjective), an ideal. Simply put, it's a lifestyle, one that Wikipedia administrators are too afraid exists. You are denying the essence of Wiki. I'm thoroughly disappointed.

Its sad you have deleted one of the greatest peices ever written--Bellz 23:11, 6 December 2005 (UTC)
