[edit] Polishsoccer.com

Non-notable website/forums. Alexa rank 960,517. MrBland 23:46, 1 August 2005 (UTC)

• • It should be kept. It's a reputable source for polish culture in the 21st century. My local paper has listed it on a soccer links site and has talked about it in the paper. It's how other cultures can be introduced to polacy on the internet. A very good way to meet and share ideas. Non-notable? your non-notable. Keep it. --Ryankozlowski 17:00, 2 August 2005 (UTC)

This vote represents Ryankozlowski only three edits --Allen3 ^talk 02:09, August 7, 2005 (UTC)

• • Non-notable? Not notable? It was the first site to break the Olisadebe story, it was quoted in the two major Chicago daily's when Poland played Mexico in May.--Milicz 19:17, 2 August 2005 (UTC)

• Delete, a forum with 600 members is not notable, and not encyclopaedic. --bainer (talk) 07:34, 2 August 2005 (UTC)
• Delete. Non-notable, non encylopedic. --Blu Aardvark | ^{(talk) | (contribs) 12:31, 2 August 2005 (UTC)}

• Until i joined Polishsoccer.com i used to go out drink and smoke marijuana, but now thanks to Polishsoccer.com i spend all of my free time posting on the forum. My friends used to be Maryjane, Johnny and Jack, but now Chow, Ryan Kozolowski, and Legia Piotr are my only friends. Thank You Polishsoccer.com/forum for saving my life.—Preceding unsigned comment added by 69.34.164.215 (talk • contribs) 16:19, August 2, 2005 (UTC)
• Keep it: It's a wonderfully written piece about the only Polish soccer resource with English aswell as Polish language content on the net —Preceding unsigned comment added by 82.174.76.231 (talk • contribs) 16:30, August 2, 2005 (UTC)

• Delete. If you want people to know about Polish soccer, write Wikipedia articles about the leagues and teams and provide a link to this site. An article for the site is completely superfluous, unless the site somehow becomes influential at a later date. --Howcheng 23:15, 2 August 2005 (UTC)
• Delete because of the meta-puppet voting here, and lack of notability. --Kiand 12:42, 4 August 2005 (UTC)
  • Kiand, that is bullshit, fine, call it non-notable, but no sockpuppet voting is going on here and an unfounded accusation like that shouldn't be here. It shouldn't be a cause for deletion, and it shouldn't enter into the minds of thsoe voting, because it is untrue. All the voters with IP's are simply Polishsoccer.com members who don't have Wikipedia membership, and this sort of introduction surely won't entice them at trying to enhance the Polish soccer section of Wikipedia. Good day sir.--Milicz 17:38, 4 August 2005 (UTC)

I set meta-puppet, not sockpuppet. And what you've just described is -exactly- what meta puppetry is. --Kiand 19:07, 4 August 2005 (UTC)

Just so I'm clear, who came up with that term? And how could it possibly apply to any Wiki project? We want outsiders using Wikipedia, it is sort of the point, anyone who comes on here is a user.--Milicz 21:51, 4 August 2005 (UTC)

Wikipedia:Sockpuppet seems to currently refer to them as "meatpuppets", though that could be vandalism. Either way, its there. Kiand 22:04, 4 August 2005 (UTC)
