[edit] MyLifeOfTravel.com

Hi there, and thanks for your message about your website. Please sign your posts on talk pages using ~~~~. I deleted the page Mylifeoftravel.com because the community formed a consensus to delete it at this discussion page. Please see WP:WEB for possible reasons for this. Because Wikipedia discussions represent forming a consensus of the Wikipedia community, those who are not members of the community (i.e. users without accounts and very new users) generally have their recommendations discounted. A further problem is that your claims (of membership details and patents, for example) are not verifiable. The article was well-written, but if I wrote an article about my sister, it would not matter how well I wrote it — she is not notable enough to have a Wikipedia article, and it appears that your site is currently not either. While I have the technical power to restore the page, I would not have the community's support to do so. If your site becomes more notable (good examples would be having an Alexa rank of 10000 or better, being written about in notable print publications, or having a verifiable audience of over 5000 people) then you should feel free to resubmit the article. Alternatively, if you feel I have erred in process (for example, by miscounting the votes or incorrectly ignoring one or more votes), you can place a request at Wikipedia:Deletion review to have my decision rechecked. Thanks for your contributions and I hope you enjoy being a Wikipedian. Stifle (talk) 20:08, 8 April 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Second message

Thanks for your reply.

My argument is that you are listing many other sites with lesser userbases and certainly no notability. The comments made against keeping our page were done so by people who did not take the time to review the site and I would suggest you did not do so yourself as it is not difficult to see that the site easily exceeds the outlined membership stats.

If qualifying criteria is membership, then here is a verifiable list of member blog homepages as at 3 weeks after our test launch, this proves we have a current membership which far exceeds the requirements you outline: [removed massive list of links, see [1] for the list if you wish] —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Calanh (talkcontribs) 08:12, 10 April 2006 (UTC).

Please never ever post that many links on my talk page again. Please sign your posts on talk pages using ~~~~.
As I said before, the community consensus has spoken. If you wish to request that my decision be reviewed, please use Wikipedia:Deletion review. Stifle (talk) 14:43, 10 April 2006 (UTC)


Please do not add commercial links (or links to your own private websites) to Wikipedia. Wikipedia is not a vehicle for advertising or a mere collection of external links. You are, however, encouraged to add content instead of links to the encyclopedia. See the welcome page to learn more. Thanks. Mwanner | Talk 15:59, 24 May 2006 (UTC)
