[edit] Myway.com
This is an advertisement. Delete it. - CorbinSimpson 19:31, 5 February 2006 (UTC)
- Speedy delete: A1. Very short article providing no context to allow expansion. That aside, subject is definitely non-notable. --Kinu 19:57, 5 February 2006 (UTC)
- Reply- Myway.com is notable as it has a ranking of 118 on Alexa/ [1], thus is meets WP:WEB. Englishrose 22:33, 5 February 2006 (UTC)
- Delete - purely an ad for a website. Interestingly, the given URL does not provide a game site, but rather a "search" page. —ERcheck @ 20:17, 5 February 2006 (UTC)
Strong Keep Article was originally badly wrote, I've given it a quick rewrite so that it makes sense and describes the site properly. Clearly meets WP:WEB as it has an Alexa ranking of 118. [2]. Englishrose 22:33, 5 February 2006 (UTC)Changed vote to merge with My Way (web portal). Englishrose 23:02, 5 February 2006 (UTC)- Comment: There is already My Way (web portal). Merge your article if you desire, or let AfD decide. Oh, and you should reread WP:WEB. Alexa scores, due to heavy systemic bias in the way that they measure traffic, are completely worthless and are not specifically acceptable by themselves as proof of notability. - CorbinSimpson 22:38, 5 February 2006 (UTC)
- Calm down, I didn't know there was a My Way (web portal) article. Anyhow, an alexa score that is so high it makes 118 shows that it gets a high amount of traffic amonst window users with Microsoft Windows and Microsoft Internet Explorer which in itself makes the MySpace.com notable.

Merge per Simpson. --Aaron 22:40, 5 February 2006 (UTC)Changed my mind. Delete both Myway.com and My Way (web portal). The site does appear to have high traffic, but both articles as they stand are the epitome of uselessness. --Aaron 22:43, 5 February 2006 (UTC)- Reply I definitely wouldn't call them useless. If we based wikipedia articles on what one person thinks is useful to them then they'd be very few articles. This could be useful for people wanting to research into Internet Portals and successful internet sites. Englishrose 23:02, 5 February 2006 (UTC)
