[edit] Proboards

Delete Seems to be advertising. Ganymead 01:03, 19 Feb 2005 (UTC)

  • It does indeed look like advertising. Delete unless rewritten and some degree of notability established. Kappa 02:08, 19 Feb 2005 (UTC)
  • Delete, but I will change my vote if somebody can make a satisfactory stub. Keep. Seems to be notable enough, despite not exactly being Wikipedia material. --Sn0wflake 03:13, 19 Feb 2005 (UTC)
  • Hard to tell with Internet companies, but their name gets about a million Google hits, and they claim to be "the home of over 3 million users". How many of those are active they don't mention, but seems to be a pretty sizeable company. Keep and cleanup, but I'll take advice if anybody knows the field better. In the meantime, am NPOVing.

    • Now slightly more factual content, and neutral, but still could use expansion. Meelar (talk) 03:18, Feb 19, 2005 (UTC)
  • Don't think Proboards would need to advertise on Wikipedia, but would probably be more at home in an article on free forum hosts such as EZboard. Hedley 22:33 Feb 19, 2005 (UTC)
  • Keep. Proboards isn't as major as ezboard (which needs expansion even more than this one), but it's one of a handful of top runners-up. This is well above the level of what normally passes as notability for a website. -Aranel ("Sarah") 03:13, 20 Feb 2005 (UTC)
  • Keep:Proboards is a company just like microsoft. Why do they have a page here and Proboards does not? --Javascriptdude 21:08, 21 Feb 2005 (UTC)
  • Keep: Tell me, wheres the petition to delete EZBoard? So EZBoard can stay but not ProBoards? It's unfair. - Adam 69.76.98.26 21:31, 21 Feb 2005 (UTC)
  • KEEP PROBOARDS: ezboards are an old virsin or proboards that Pat Gave to his friends we need to get rid off ezboards and all the others too if u get rid of proboards
    • Unsigned by User:69.170.192.163. It was his second edit; his first (and only other) was to the article. —Korath (Talk) 12:22, Mar 5, 2005 (UTC)
