[edit] ChatAutism

http://searchirc.com/network/chatautism,yearly demonstrates that roughly 40 people use this network, so this is basically like having an article for a single IRC channel. Ashibaka tock 21:20, 25 September 2006 (UTC)

  • Delete though in a way this is a pity as I'm sure it serves those who use it very well. But it does not seem notable or correct for Wiki Nigel (Talk) 12:35, 26 September 2006 (UTC)
  • Comment happy to see rediredt or merge Nigel (Talk) 15:32, 27 September 2006 (UTC)
  • I just realized that I probably could have redirected this to Aspies For Freedom with little complaint, but just in case the creator swings around I guess an AfD discussion could be helpful. Ashibaka tock 15:09, 26 September 2006 (UTC)
  • Keep This is a special network, so there are special things to say about it, so it deserves an article. Gerrit CUTEDH 15:13, 28 September 2006 (UTC)
  • Keep I personally think that given the network is to my knowledge the first and I believe still the only IRC network specifically relating to the autism spectrum that in itself would make it noteable, however the article needs some work I think first to make that clear and to satisfy the requirements properly.

  • Keep AS MttJocy said above - chatautism is the first and only network dedicated to the autistic spectrum. It is most certainly noteable.
  • Delete As a network it's about three computers and and only 40ish users (including everyone who has voted 'Keep' here). The page exists here only as part of the something-out-of-nothing promotion campaign by AFF. It's pure fancruft. CalG 18:05, 28 September 2006 (UTC)
