[edit] Hoes.com

Contest prod. I don't see how it meets WP:WEB. I would just like to get a community consensus for an action. Yanksox 21:23, 2 August 2006 (UTC)

  • Delete I don't see how it meets WP:WEB either. --Tuspm (C | @) 21:28, 2 August 2006 (UTC)
  • Keep I'm still adding more information to the entry including a history of "free adult sites" and what the differences are and how hoes.com is a pioneer in the industry. As a matter of fact, hoes.com was one of the first "lists of links" in general. Well before most of the mainstream directories you see today including the popular Craigslist.com.

If hoes.com cannot stay, please let me know why most of the entries on this page are unaffected. Hoes.com actually has historical significance within the industry.

  • Can you please provide reliable sources containing information about the "historical significance" of this website? That in and of itself is one of the biggest problems with the article - it does not assert its importance and reason for inclusion in an encyclopedia. Additionally, you must prove that the content itself has been the subject of multiple non-trivial published works whose source is independent of the site itself. (The emphasized section is copy and pasted from WP:WEB.) Oh - and delete for the reasons listed above and in my statement. Srose (talk) 16:24, 4 August 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete. As written, article does not provide info on subject that meets any of the three criteria in WP:WEB. --Satori Son 20:04, 7 August 2006 (UTC)
