[edit] Christian30

This website was founded in 2006 according to the article. It has no alexa ranking [1]. There is also a template Template:Christian30 at TFD, an image Image:Screenshot of Christian30 Countdown.png at IFD, and a host of other articles that have been tagged with a prod. If any of Christian30 Annual Video Music Awards, Christian Hot 30 Chart, Christian30 Covergirl, Matt Labanelli, and Christian Hot 30 Chart survive their prod, need a trip to AFD.

  • Delete Weasely content is misleading: MTV is mentioned, but the "relationship" is basically that Christian30 saw that MTv was a success and decided to be a success, too! Fails WEB, non-notable, NOT a promotional tool, almost Crystal ball. KillerChihuahua?!? 05:26, 20 July 2006 (UTC)
  • One other note ... take a look at Portal:Christianity/Article Archive/Suggestions. Within 27 minutes, a redlinked user proposed the article and two other brand new users with no other contributions whatsoever showed up to support the idea. Hmmmmm ... BigDT 05:29, 20 July 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete and check the contributions of all of these contributors. I went ahead and changed the targets of some of the redirects, while others need to be outright deleted after their associated articles go. Blatant advertising campaign. GassyGuy 05:38, 20 July 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete all. Not notable, grossly exaggerated and over-promoted, and is the center of a huge astroturfing campaign supported by multiple sockpuppets (listed on the Administrators' noticeboard, and visible in the edit history to Christian30 and its satellite articles).

  • Delete as per previous comments. Slac speak up! 05:45, 20 July 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete. When I saw the prod earlier, I was itching to tear into it should the prod be removed. Guess I was too slow, everyone already mentioned all the big elements of this. So, I'll just say delete per all above. -- H·G (words/works) 06:04, 20 July 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete fails WP:WEB. SynergeticMaggot 07:31, 20 July 2006 (UTC)

  • Delete hard to find a policy or guideline it does not fail. Just zis Guy you know? 09:33, 20 July 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete per Ninth Commandment (8th for Catholics, Swedenborgians, etc). There are a lot of Christians in America, so if, as the article claims, this website is "often considered to be the driving force in American Christian pop culture", it should not be difficult to find some people saying so on the internet... right? And yet Google returns exactly 0 hits for christian30 "driving force"... — Haeleth Talk 10:49, 20 July 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete all per above. NawlinWiki 11:54, 20 July 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete all garbage. Danny Lilithborne 12:10, 20 July 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete all for failure of WP:WEB, WP:BIO, and WP:V.--Isotope23 12:32, 20 July 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete all as above, for failure of just about every standard for inclusion. I'd be very interested to see a result of an RFCU for all these contributors who sound so much alike. Fan-1967 13:49, 20 July 2006 (UTC)
Here it is: [2] -- confirmed sockpuppets of the same user. Antandrus (talk) 14:49, 20 July 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete as WP:SPAM. Wikipedia is not free ad space. --DarkAudit 14:15, 20 July 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete all as garbage. RandyWang (raves/rants) 14:46, 20 July 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete. Not spam, but fails WP:WEB and WP:V. --Coredesat talk. o.o;; 15:08, 20 July 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete all. Rubbish. +Fin 20:48, 20 July 2006 (UTC)

  • Delete all astroturfing, pre-emptive use of sockpuppetry, non-notable radio/website/contest/what-have-you. Mak (talk) 01:23, 22 July 2006 (UTC)
