I feel this fails WP:WEB - no independent references, no notable achievements. Chris (talk) 20:42, 13 March 2008 (UTC)

  • Delete I can't locate any WP:RS. This may fall under advertising?--Torchwood Who? (talk) 21:03, 13 March 2008 (UTC)
  • Speedy Delete -- definitely spammy.  – ukexpat (talk) 21:53, 13 March 2008 (UTC)

Sorry if I cross post. I'm yet to figure out logic in this TALK feature... never know where it will appear and where I should reply for you to see it.

Spammy?

This is a free service and nowhere in the article there was a call for action, just trying to describe functionality through plain fact statement. The site put together on $0 budget attracted thousands of members in a matter of year without any advertising effors. As of March, International Crew and Talent members got a chance to join too. Talk to those people and see what they think. I am planning to place links to a few Union member profiles featured on Wikipedia.

Yes, it is not a venture funded enterprise and does step on the toes of the sites trying to offer similar services but for a fee. This is true service to the industry with the highest unemployment rate.

Give me a chance to put it together before you jump to another swift cliche ruling. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Slatecast (talk • contribs) 14:58, 14 March 2008 (UTC)

If you place links to "a few Union member profiles featured on Wikipedia" please be careful that you don't go into link spam territory. Typically on Wikipedia links should be WP:RS or official sites. If you are placing links just be mindful.--Torchwood Who? (talk) 15:14, 14 March 2008 (UTC)
