[edit] Kryptonsite and Kryptonisite

Both articles are identical. Proposed for deletion, but an anon objected. Article concerns a fansite for Smallville and is essentially unverifiable due to lack of any reliable third-party sources. The website is already linked from Smallville (TV series) and does not need its own article. Delete. Sam Blanning (formerly Malthusian) (talk) 14:05, 26 March 2006 (UTC)

  • Delete agree with above. Make sure we get Kryptonisite too if this gets deleted, atm its basically the same article. --Syrthiss 14:08, 26 March 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete - agree both should be deleted as per above. --Scott 14:11, 26 March 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete I don't quite think they meet WP:WEB but they come close. ~10k alexa rank, at least one interview with the cocreator of the show [1]. kotepho 14:54, 26 March 2006 (UTC)
  • Seen it. That's not a third-party article about Kryptonsite, that's an interview with Al Gough. It verifies that the site exists and does interviews, and nothing else. --Sam Blanning (formerly Malthusian) (talk) 15:50, 26 March 2006 (UTC)
  • Most fansites do not get interviews though. It might qualify as reprinting but I don't think the Hollywood North Report is notable enough. kotepho 19:34, 26 March 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete both. Non-notable. Bucketsofg 15:56, 26 March 2006 (UTC)
  • Comment: If these are deleted, it probably wouldn't hurt to make Kryptonsite a redirect to Kryptonite, as a one-character-off misspelling. -Colin Kimbrell 22:15, 27 March 2006 (UTC)
  • I know that redirects are cheap, but it seems implausible to me. It's neither phonetically similar nor an obvious typo (at least on a QWERTY keyboard). --Sam Blanning (formerly Malthusian) (talk) 22:25, 27 March 2006 (UTC)
  • Redirect to Smallville (TV series), as link to the site is already there, and this would dissuade from recreation. Proto||type 09:24, 28 March 2006 (UTC)
