[edit] Dissident Voice

Delete non notable news letter. no claim to notability. vanity and advertisement. Strothra 16:23, 28 May 2006 (UTC)

• Keep Google search for +Dissident +Voice gives this site as #1. Note that it is used without citation. That speaks a lot about notability. Reading the article, i wonder if nominator has done the same when reading "no claim to notability"--Striver 23:11, 28 May 2006 (UTC)
• Comment Did Chomsky, Fisk, etc... explicitly make these pieces for this news letter or are they just copied on from other sources? Because if the latter is true then there really is no claim to notability.--Jersey Devil 23:16, 28 May 2006 (UTC)

That's what I was thinking as well. I found no proof that it was directly for this source and it doesn't sound like their style. Usually if Chomsky publishes something it's a book but if it's an article it's in a publication with a household name or academic journal.--Strothra 23:20, 28 May 2006 (UTC)

• Keep Site has an Alexa ranking in the top 100k (88,432). 2.1 million Google results for +Dissident +Voice. That's notable enough for me. Search4Lancer 01:18, 29 May 2006 (UTC)
