[edit] MoonieCast

Contested prod. This is an article about a fansite which does not meet our criteria for web inclusion additionally, this information is duplicated (actually copied and pasted) from the wikimoon article (which has an incompatible license with wikipedia) [1]. An internet phenomenon should have more than 20 google hits. It also appears that this article was entirely created and edited by the people who created the website. --Kunzite 21:10, 15 October 2006 (UTC)

• Strong Delete looks to be edited mainly by the people responsible for it. Non-notable fansite, or podcast, or whatever it is. Get rid of it. Danny Lilithborne 22:05, 15 October 2006 (UTC)
• Delete, even though it looks very pretty and is nicely-written. A metric I like is, "Will anyone ever hear about this out-of-context?" In this case, the answer is probably no. Everyone who hears about the Mooniecast will have a pretty good understanding what it is. If you can learn everything there is to know about something in one conversation, it just doesn't need an article in an encyclopedia. You'd rather have them go to your own website anyway, right? --Masamage 00:00, 16 October 2006 (UTC)

Comment One of the reasons these sort of things are added is to direct people to the website. Wikipedia has quite a few mirrors and it helps with google search rank and the like. --Kunzite 01:04, 16 October 2006 (UTC)

Ahh, that makes sense. --Masamage 03:51, 16 October 2006 (UTC)

• Delete Its not referenced and can not be verified. Also, doesnt meet WP:WEB like Kunzite said. Also, Wikipedia is NOT and advertising medium. Websites get covered here AFTER they attain notability and not in order to GAIN notability. Shinhan 05:40, 16 October 2006 (UTC)
