[edit] goaste
Non-notable website, doesn't meet WP:WEB, alexa ranking of 4,000,000+, no reliable sources on this so doesn't meet WP:V Xyzzyplugh 16:15, 30 August 2006 (UTC)
- Delete. Fails WP:WEB and is a non-notable website. --Nishkid64 16:20, 30 August 2006 (UTC)
- Delete, no evidence that site meets WP:WEB. Once deleted, recreate as a redirect to goatse.cx as a plausible misspelling. --Kinu t/c 16:46, 30 August 2006 (UTC)
- Delete and redirect per Kinu. - Mgm|(talk) 08:46, 31 August 2006 (UTC)
- Comment - I am neither the creator nor a contributor to this article, but I am a fan of this website. One reason why the Alexa ranking may be so low is because more often than the goaste.cx link, people often link to the site using the original location (it is hosted at [1]), and people sometimes link there rather than to the shortened URL, due to some people misreading it as goatse.cx and choosing to not click it for that reason. Of course, this creates a problem, as typing davidguy.brinkster.net/goaste/ into Alexa provides traffic ranking for brinkster.net. Being such a big fan of the site I feel I would not be neutral or realistic in my vote. I can, however, offer that little piece of information regarding the Alexa rank, however useless it ultimately may have been. --Dreaded Walrus 08:11, 1 September 2006 (UTC)
- Delete. Regardless of the reason for the low Alexa rank, it still fails WP:WEB. --Mr. Lefty Talk to me! 23:58, 2 September 2006 (UTC)
