[edit] Thebroken

Not notable. Delete. brenneman(t)(c) 01:04, 5 October 2005 (UTC)

  • Redirect to Kevin Rose. Kertrats | Talk 03:35, 5 October 2005 (UTC)
    • Could you specify for the clarity of the closing admin: A bare redirect leaves the article in place in history, and thus counts as a keep. Delete and redirect would not. - brenneman(t)(c) 04:17, 5 October 2005 (UTC)
      • I don't see that it matters one way or the other except for GFDL reasons perhaps (not certain how that works), but I'll specify to Delete and redirect as above. Kertrats | Talk 16:37, 5 October 2005 (UTC)
      • Geez, Brenneman, you're really determined to see this thing go, eh? Wandering oojah 19:25, 5 October 2005 (UTC)
  • Delete - nn CLW 12:25, 5 October 2005 (UTC)
  • If any content is merged it cannot be deleted (GFDL attribution requirement). Just redirect, deletion not needed. - Mgm|(talk) 18:00, 5 October 2005 (UTC)
    • That's slightly incorrect. The history can be pasted into the talk page, or I believe an admin can perform a history merge. Either one or the other will satisfy GFDL. - brenneman(t)(c) 22:21, 5 October 2005 (UTC)
  • Strong Keep. Very notable, it was one of the first popular web shows. --Hoovernj 18:54, 5 October 2005 (UTC)
  • Keep. Popular videozine, from what I gather. Google search (thebroken + "kevin rose") returns 18,000 hits. Wandering oojah 19:14, 5 October 2005 (UTC)
  • Delete and redirect per Brenneman. Just barely non-notable for me. Johntex\talk 19:51, 5 October 2005 (UTC)
  • Keep, notable. Eliot 22:25, 5 October 2005 (UTC)
  • Delete. No independent, verifiable evidence of encyclopedic notability presented. Gamaliel 00:13, 6 October 2005 (UTC)
  • Delete. nonnotable 482 unique google hits (rather than 18,000), nonverifiable. mikka (t) 02:17, 6 October 2005 (UTC)
  • Keep. Popular videozine with a well known host. bbx 17:06, 6 October 2005 (UTC)
  • Keep [1]  Grue  12:27, 8 October 2005 (UTC)
  • Keep Very popular videozine, definitely keep! Salvag 18:24, 9 October 2005 (UTC)
