Does not meet WP:WEB. Google finds 7 links to it, and the alexa rank is in excess of five million. - CHAIRBOY (☎) 01:52, 17 January 2006 (UTC)

  • Don't Delete - WordNet.Net is only 6 months old so there are few google links. It is an open source resource used by developers and researchers. WordWeb is allowed to stay (linked from WordNet) and WordWeb is freeware/commercial ware, so shouldn't WordNet.Net as an open source project be allowed to stay? WordNet.Net is also linked by Princeton's WordNet project in their related links ebswift
    • Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia! Please taka a moment to read WP:WEB to get an idea of which websites are and are not listed here. Also note, WP:NOT describes that Wikipedia is not, among other things, a web page directory. Whether or not something is open source has no bearing on whether it merits an article. It's nothing personal, it's just a guideline being used to keep this an encyclopedia. Best regards, CHAIRBOY (☎) 20:00, 17 January 2006 (UTC)
