The result was keep. As far as I can see, all the concerns of the delete proponents were addressed by Arthur Rubin. It is the responsbility of participants to watch discussions for new evidence and either change their opinion or explain why the evidence is insufficient. --Sam Blanning(talk) 17:34, 23 October 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Drugs I Need
Contested {{db-web}} speedy. Editor removed tag saying "Video is done by notable group." The problem is, it's not. I'm assuming the editor was referring to the line in the article that reads "The animation, which is supported by JibJab...", but all that means is that JibJab is hosting a copy on their servers; they did not do the animation. Take out the JibJab line and I see no notability at all. To make matters worse, the animation is a highly POV ad attacking drug companies. To top it all off, zero wikilinks. --Aaron 03:27, 13 October 2006 (UTC) Further reasons to delete: I just discovered that JibJab no longer even offers this video on their web site. I've removed the JibJab references from the article. --Aaron 03:39, 13 October 2006 (UTC)
- Comment. I believe the notable group to which they refer is the Austin Lounge Lizards. SteveHopson 03:31, 13 October 2006 (UTC)
