WP:NN webzine. The only valid sources are primary - all other sources failed verification. More info on Talk: Godspy. Toddst1 (talk) 23:17, 26 March 2008 (UTC)

• KEEP This nomination is completely without merit. The nominator falsely states that the sources failed verification merely because they could not be found on the internet. They are in fact valid cites establishing notability. In fact one of the articles on the subject is in a column called "New & Notable". Most online versions of papers do not keep their archives of old articles available online. The nominator has not even bothered to check news databases or take a trip to the library. The site has been covered in the Seattle Times, The Houston Chronicle, the Dallas Morning News, and New Jersey's The Record, just to name a few. It also has numerous persons of note writing for it, many of whom have their own articles. See the article's talk page and the site itself. Moreover, this nomination is premature. It was only created hours ago. Additional time is appropriate to further establish notability. A google hits search returns 30,700 results for Godspy - a good indication of notability.

• Keep; sourcing appears adequate to demonstrate relevance. Matthew Brown (Morven) (T:C) 07:06, 27 March 2008 (UTC)
• Keep I nominated the old article for CSD, mainly due to the lack of any other source then its own website. Since the sourcing problem is solved, i dont see any rule that the article fails to meet at this time. My only negative comment would be the kind of large percentage of the text being "Advertising Quotes" such as: "ideas and experiences that reveal God’s presence in the world.". Personally i prefer articles to consist of more NPOV text, but thats just me. Excirial ^{(Talk,Contribs)} 08:09, 27 March 2008 (UTC)
