Non-notable forum, does not meet WP:WEB. Prod removed without reason. Wildthing61476 19:38, 5 September 2006 (UTC)

Sorry, I didn't know what that code was at the top of the page so I took it out. I'm kinda new to Wikipedida and didn't realize that deleting the code would take out the message on top. I thought it just stayed there itself. Anyways, I feel this article should stay. MSB FTW is very successful and has over 210,000 posts since January, which is very impressive. The board has become even more popular lately, too. The board was slow during the first month of creation or two, but now the board averages well over 2,000 posts per day. Note: Please don't get mad if I did this wrong too. I think I got this edit right though MetsRule 20:06, 5 September 2006 (UTC)

  • Comment Please read WP:WEB, nowhere in that criteria does it state that popularity (or non-popularity) is important. What is important are reliable sources or major web awards. Without those, it would be a delete. ColourBurst 20:17, 5 September 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete, the site doesn't seem to meet WP:WEB. Hosted on Invision, only about 100 members. No WP:RS indicating any sort of notability otherwise. --Kinu t/c 20:15, 5 September 2006 (UTC)


The Board also compiles a lot of current events and is not a sole time waster, there are many worth while discussions that go there and I feel as if the it deserves to be recognized by wiki. Wiki is a favorite place for people to link information on MSB FTW. And if any worry should arise, wiki is not being assosiated with any porn.Nevoso Inverno 20:16, 5 September 2006 (UTC)Nevoso Inverno

  • Speedy Delete. Others may disagree, but I feel as though NN online forms fall under the groups section of CSD A7. Irongargoyle 23:22, 5 September 2006 (UTC)
