[edit] The Vortex

The Vortex (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs) – (View log)

While it looks like some work went into this, it's little more than an advertisement for a LAN gaming center. It should also be noted that one of the tournaments that this hosts has been deleted before. JuJube 05:19, 28 March 2007 (UTC)

  • Strong Keep I have kept a neutral POV while writing this article and The Vortex happens to be quite notable in the gaming community. I'd also like to add every article has to start somewhere and I think there is alot of room for improvement than to judge so quickly. Omegacommand 05:35, 28 March 2007 (UTC)
  • Delete No sources, no evidence of notability (see WP:N). TJ Spyke 05:39, 28 March 2007 (UTC)
  • Delete Looks spam-alicious to me. 'Neutral' doesn't include such phrases as "one of the best". Cantras 06:50, 28 March 2007 (UTC)
  • Delete unless sources to assert and support notability can be provided. Surely this got some coverage in trade magazines or local papers. --Haemo 07:46, 28 March 2007 (UTC)
  • Delete -- notability not shown. This is the second incarnation of this article; an earlier version was deleted last Octoberl as spam.[1] If press coverage is shown that meets the requirements of WP:CORP, then I'm happy to keep. --A. B. (talk) 11:45, 28 March 2007 (UTC)
  • Delete as unsourced. —Disavian (talk/contribs) 18:16, 28 March 2007 (UTC)
  • Comment I know for a fact The Vortex has been featured in quite a few local papers and would like some time to research this and add sources and references. Omegacommand 18:23, 28 March 2007 (UTC)
    • AfD nominations last approximately five days. If you've sourced the article by then, I'll be happy to change my "vote." —Disavian (talk/contribs) 18:35, 28 March 2007 (UTC)
  • Delete unless sources are added to indicate notability; also, clearly needs cleanup of its advertising-like tone and lack of complete sentences. — brighterorange (talk) 20:02, 28 March 2007 (UTC)
  • Delete. Looks like advertising to me. --RFBailey 20:55, 28 March 2007 (UTC)
  • Delete. Mmmm — Southern fried spam. Realkyhick 03:37, 29 March 2007 (UTC)
