[edit] Tyler Thomas

Tyler Thomas (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs) – (View log)

Finishing a partial nom. Appears to be a non-notable web site, individual, company, and product -- all in one article. Not quite a speedy candidate, as there's notability (albeit very questionable notability) asserted. Zetawoof(ζ) 06:49, 26 October 2007 (UTC)

Delete I don't know about non-notable, most of it seems more non-existant. Article is mainly about a blog site, which probably fails WP:WEB. However mostly this appears to be a hoax. Google shows nothing linking teendrop to anyone with the name Tyler Thomas [1] [2]. Searches for several of the other 'companies' this person supposedly owns return nothing of interest; eFriendzs in particluar is a redirect to teendrop, YouPay (both org and net) appears to be nothing more than squatter pages (apparently at one point however, YouPay.net was a site like paypal according to various message board questions regarding the site [3]), and TreyGotIt returns nothing at all. As for the legal claims, well we need a wp:this is abolute crap policy. The tv show, 'Yo'Trey!' doesn't seem to be mentioned anywhere as far I can see. Don't know why I bothered, but I also emailed the owners of NiggaSpace.com to confirm whether there is any truth to the claims of a lawsuit. If I get a reply and this Afd is still open, I'll put it in here. ARendedWinter 07:42, 26 October 2007 (UTC)

  • The 27 unique search results for teendrop (most of which are unrelated) seem to explain why I've never heard of the site before, too. Somehow, I suspect that the claim of "121,000 million accounts" is a little overblown. Zetawoof(ζ) 08:31, 26 October 2007 (UTC)
  • Apart from anything else, that's approximately 20 accounts for every person currently living on the planet..... ChrisTheDude 08:59, 26 October 2007 (UTC)
