[edit] Dragon's landing
Yet another non-notable podcast (Alexa rank: 1,297,463). Daniel Case 05:41, 17 January 2006 (UTC)
As one of the hosts of this podcast, I take a bit of offense at it being called non-notable. It is currently ranked #79 out of nearly 12,000 podcasts on Podcast Alley. Last month it made it to #41. As to whether it is deleted or not, I don't particularly care. One of our listeners put the article up, and it doesn't seem to violate any of the 4 reasons for deletion listed in the Wikipedia deletion rules. It exists, it is verifiable, there is nothing currently in the article that shows any bias, and since it is released under Creative Commons, nothing about the podcast or any mention of it violates any copyright. I don't seem to recall "the opinion of one user of Wikipedia who finds the article irrelevant" being listed in the rules for deletion section. --Chuck Tinsley, Co-Host —Preceding unsigned comment added by 12.218.115.252 (talk • contribs)
- Delete unless we really need articles about the top 100 podcasts from every podcast page. OhnoitsJamie 06:47, 17 January 2006 (UTC)
- Delete, fails WP:WEB inclusion criteria. -- Saberwyn - The Zoids Expansion Project 07:34, 17 January 2006 (UTC)
- Delete does not meet Wikipedia:Notability (websites)#Criteria_for_web_content criteria. No external links or references which prove such criteria. -- Astrokey44|talk 10:08, 17 January 2006 (UTC)
- Delete as podcruft. Stifle 14:41, 18 January 2006 (UTC)
- Delete. Whenever a podcast makes it big outside the podcast-o-sphere, it deserves a Wikipedia entry. Until then, back to the gutter with you. --Agamemnon2 12:41, 19 January 2006 (UTC)
- Don't Delete This article is meant to reserve a place for the fans of Dragon's Landing to tell others about the podcast. It is not written in promotional language and is formatted to wikipedia standards for the most part. Please do not delete this article simply because one user seems to enjoy censoring articles who's subject matter does not agree with his tastes. JellyRoll713 13:37, 19 January 2006 (UTC)

- Comment: Please re-read Wikipedia:What_Wikipedia_is_not#Wikipedia_is_not_a_soapbox and WP:VAIN. The absence of promotional language is good, but not sufficient in and of itself, since by your own admission the article was created to promote the podcast. In the case of vanity contributions, many editors cleave to the beliefs listed in WP:N.-Colin Kimbrell 14:44, 19 January 2006 (UTC)
- Delete as per OhnoitsJamie --Deville 14:24, 19 January 2006 (UTC)
