[edit] Myspace U.S. politics forum
Okay, here's a weird one. Basically, this is about a subforum of a website, which does not (IMHO) fulfill any sort of notability criteria (let alone WP:WEB) - and the article contents probably would warrant a complete rewrite in any case, in which case Deleting won't hurt. The more odd thing is that I bring this to AfD: I deleted this already, but thought I was kinda-sorta stretching CSD A7, because this is a web forum and not a group of people; however, while a witty philosopher might lump them to same group, the practice is still highly controversial (I'm not saying yea or nay on that myself). I figured that CSD is for uncontroversial stuff and I can't decide myself, it won't hurt to AfD. So here it is up for evaluation, for the sake of the Process. --wwwwolf (barks/growls) 20:27, 12 September 2006 (UTC)
- Delete, possibly not even notable in the context of Myspace itself, fails a quasi-WP:WEB test. Looks like WP:SPAM for the group. Everyone adding advertising for their favorite Myspace forum is not the goal of Wikipedia, I think. --Kinu t/c 20:31, 12 September 2006 (UTC)

- Delete MySpace is a very notable website, but that doesn't mean all its groups or subforums should have their own encyclopedia articles. Andrew Lenahan - Starblind 21:38, 12 September 2006 (UTC)
