[edit] Chris Beasley

This page is almost entirely about Chris Beasley's website google-watch-watch.org, which as far as I can tell is a barely known site. Its only content is an attack on a relatively-little known site, google-watch.org, which itself critiques Google. Doesn't seem appropriate for Wikipedia at all. AaronSw 04:49, 11 December 2005 (UTC)

• Keep. If Daniel Brandt is notable because of his Google Watch website, then Beasley is notable as well, because Brandt devotes considerable space to him, and the media frequently mentions the two of them together to get both opposing viewpoints. If nothing else, in the interest of fairness, Wikipedia needs this article to balance out the considerable attention Brandt is given in his own article. wikipediatrix 05:46, 11 December 2005 (UTC)

• The question is does Google-watch-watch meet WP:WEB. 681 Google hits - not a large number for a blog see [1] Further, there don't seem to be a large number of hits for it. No Google news hits for it or for "Chris Beasley" Google see [2].

Had difficulties getting Alexa but given the low Google count, I doubt it meets this criteria. Delete. Capitalistroadster 06:17, 11 December 2005 (UTC)

• Weak keep, seems notable, or at least make an article about Google-watch-watch. — JIP | Talk 12:03, 11 December 2005 (UTC)
• How about merging this with the Daniel Brandt article under some sort of general article title like "Controversy about Google"? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 134.173.65.34 (talk • contribs) 00:14, December 12, 2005
• Delete both articles, before the crufters found Google.watch.watch.watch just to get a Wiki entry --SockpuppetSamuelson 07:57, 12 December 2005 (UTC)
• Merge with Daniel Brandt or Google Watch article Chanlord 02:57, 16 December 2005 (UTC)
