- Keep Site is signicant in that it is the first online dating site to utilize a test for the selection of members. Geneffects 06:53, 30 June 2006 (UTC)
- Comment Can you verify that with reliable sources? --Coredesat talk. o.o;; 10:43, 30 June 2006 (UTC)

Many sites have tests, but they still accept 100% of the applicants. I have further verified this with exhaustive research Geneffects 13:09, 30 June 2006 (UTC)
- eHarmony doesn't accept all applicants. But even if iqcuties were the only site to have a test, the article would still need to be deleted because it is not verifiable. Rhobite 13:54, 30 June 2006 (UTC)

- Delete - even if something is unique, and a good idea, it is not necessarily notable. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Seidenstud (talk • contribs) 22:11, 30 June 2006 UTC.
- Keep I think the concept of a dating site using an IQ test is sufficiently notable to warrant a WP article. Lurker 10:31, 1 July 2006 (UTC)
