[edit] Utopia General Talk

Non-notable, the article is about a forum. Akamad ^{Happy new year!} 05:05, 28 December 2005 (UTC)

• Firebalt: This Article isnt Just about a forum, its about the activities of the forum, the users here feel our activitiies which have effected many other parts of the web should be recored and its undergoing editing. Its Not Blatent advertising, its a record of The Forum. The way the forum works, its more likes its own site rather than a spin off of the game especialy seeing as no one in the forum plays it. —the preceding unsigned comment is by Firebalt (talk • contribs) 05:08, December 28 2005 (UTC)
• Speedy Delete this is an article about a "General Talk" forum for the game Utopia? And doesn't list any reason for notability? Unfortunately its not on its own server so we can't get Alexa ratings for it. --Pboyd04 05:23, 28 December 2005 (UTC)
  • They make a claim to notability now. But I haven't heard of any of theses phrases or trends and I don't think this website meets the criteria on WP:WEB --Pboyd04 05:44, 28 December 2005 (UTC)
  • You have never heard the term "that suggestion isnt even worth pissing on", Have you been living under a rock? Firebalt
    • Nope but neither has google so I don't feel so bad. --Pboyd04 05:49, 28 December 2005 (UTC)

• Delete as non-notable web forum. --Quarl 05:39, 28 December 2005 (UTC)
• Merge the basics to Utopia (online game) and clean up. Failing that, delete as non-notable. --Muchness 05:41, 28 December 2005 (UTC)
  • We Are in the process of discussing how we can further make Notability, so just give us some time Firebalt 06:00, 28 December 2005 (UTC)

• This article will discuss the unique internet culture derived from said forum. It is a small localised community from which has spawned countless political elections inside the community, community radio shows, a significantly long soap opera story and countless other notable activities —the preceding unsigned comment is by Firebalt (talk • contribs) 05:44, December 28 2005 (UTC)

• Does the List of Spin Off sites that other people have created about our 'Community' add notability? Firebalt 06:04, 28 December 2005 (UTC)
• Delete, self-promotion [1] of non-notable forum. --Stormie 06:07, 28 December 2005 (UTC)
  • Its Not Self Promotion, Its us discussing what to put in the Article Firebalt 06:35, 28 December 2005 (UTC)
    • Firebalt it's bad form to strikeout someone elses text and to not sign your entries. --Pboyd04 06:33, 28 December 2005 (UTC)
• Delete forumcruft. Just zis  Guy, you know? ^[T]/_[C] AfD? 12:04, 28 December 2005 (UTC)
• Keep. UGT is a large enough community, as argued earlier, with enough spin offs and other related websites to warrant its inclusion in Wikipedia - Furinax —the preceding unsigned comment is by 203.218.213.75 (talk • contribs) 20:05, December 28, 2005 (UTC)
• Delete, since it doesn't seem to meet WP:WEB. -Colin Kimbrell
