[edit] NY Yankee Boards

Forum with no assertion of notability. Delete as massive vanity. --InShaneee 23:47, 18 May 2006 (UTC)

• Comment/Question NY Yankee Boards is a major piece to the Invision Free forum directory and is one of the most popular New York Yankees message boards on the internet. This article's purpose is to not advertise, but to inform of such a big-time place. Can you please tell me what would be required to change in order to keep this article up? --Fazio 20:19, 18 May 2006 (ET)
• Delete, a link on the Yankees article is sufficient. All the same, can you provide some objective verification that this board is in greater use than other Yankees forums? -- stubblyhead | ^T/_c 01:10, 19 May 2006 (UTC)
• Keep/Comment I have put up some information in the first section of the page, explaining how NY Yankee Boards leads Invision Free in most hits by a baseball forum and has attracted many members from numerous amounts of places. Members tend to choose us over the message boards of the YES Network, the Yankees' official television station, and Yankees.com, the team's official site. If there is anything that needs to be added or elaborated, please tell me. --Fazio 21:22, 18 May 2006 (ET)
• Keep Keep this page. It is a good board and contributes to invisionfree, which is a major message board host. If you have an article on invisionfree, you should have an article on examples of invisionfree boards. --Yankeestom 22:02, 18 May 2006 (ET)

• Note: user's 11th edit. --InShaneee 03:11, 19 May 2006 (UTC)

• Delete. Most of this article is of interest only to people who actually use this particular forum, so the best place for the information to be maintained would be on that forum itself. --Metropolitan90 03:44, 19 May 2006 (UTC)
• Delete per nom. Naconkantari 03:45, 19 May 2006 (UTC)
• Delete unless it can somehow be justified under WP:CORP or WP:WEB. It looks like advertising. --Chaser (T, C, e) 04:12, 19 May 2006 (UTC)
• Delete. Not a web index. -- GWO
• Delete as per WP:WEB. Stifle (talk) 22:56, 19 May 2006 (UTC)
• Delete as per precedents, "communities, message boards and blogs are generally not notable." Devl2666 05:48, 20 May 2006 (UTC)

• Comment. I just figured it would be okay to provide an example of what kind of places Invision Free contains. If you find that unnecessary, I respect that. No hard feelings. --Fazio 9:44, 20 May 2006 (ET)
