  • Delete I agree completely. I also enjoy that the article mentions the site's Alexa ranking, thus partially helping to prove its own non-notability. -- Kicking222 02:44, 2 June 2006 (UTC)

  • KeepGo visit http://technorati.com/search/grou.ps and you'll see that GROU.PS has a seriously growing popularity. It has a semantic link with other services like Yahoo Groups, Google Groups and MSN Groups. You guys want to delete a piece of knowledge. This is not understandable. If you delete it, I'll lose my faith in Wikipedia's neutrality.—Preceding unsigned comment added by 88.240.135.30 (talk • contribs)
    • Comment It might be gaining popularity, but now there's nothing said about it. When it becomes popular, I think someone will create an article. At the moment it isn't notable enough, and there are too many websites. CP/M 14:40, 2 June 2006 (UTC)
    Not all "knowledge" deserves its own article: "There is a toilet in my house" is also knowledge, but my toilet doesn't deserve its own article. Kimchi.sg 10:23, 2 June 2006 (UTC)
    • Comment I think it does.. The existence of an article abot your toilet won't hurt anybody but may help someone! You guys don't have respect to information; if you want to protect your YahooGroups GoogleGroups pages, then make an understable reasoning for it.. Say that a company should have this much market valuation to be featured on Wikipedia.. Or if you find this page too much like an ad, then edit and normalize it.. I just tried to make a similar article with del.icio.us; otherwise I wouldn't mention about myself. Go delete it if you want so much; it is not so precious for me. But it's bad to see that there are so much folks who do not respect information. I believe that most of you try to "protect" rights of your companies (why link to GROU.PS on MSN Groups don't get deleted?) and the others just follow the crowd. Go delete it...—Preceding unsigned comment added by 88.240.135.30 (talk • contribs)
    • Comment And this is clearly not your toilet but a growing 10.000 members web site. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 88.240.135.30 (talk • contribs)
