  • Thats not fair what kind of sources do you want? Its all true. I mean I can't link you to the threads you have to be signed up. What do I need to do to keep the page? —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Buffylove (talk • contribs).
    • Wikipedia is concerned with verifiability, not truth. This means that there has to be reliable sources. For instance, if your message board was reviewed by a notable website, that would probably count; so would a mention of it in a newspaper, magazine, or TV show. These are what is known as secondary sources. The problem is that you don't have any sources for this article except the message board itself, and, unfortunately, that doesn't meet Wikipedia policies. By the way, you can sign your comments on talk pages by typing ~~~~ after them. Crotalus horridus (TALK • CONTRIBS) 01:10, 16 April 2007 (UTC)

  • Speedy delete no assertion of notability per WP:WEB. In other words, zero mentions in newspapers, magazines, or the like. —Resurgent insurgent 2007-04-16 01:12Z

  • Speedy delete A7. Sorry, people, I'm sure you have great fun, and I hope you do, but Wikipedia is an encyclopedia, interested in encyclopedic topics. You may wish to see what Wikipedia is not. – Luna Santin (talk) 03:54, 16 April 2007 (UTC)
