Nonoba (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs) (restore|cache|AfD)

Is a real site and is big enouch to be on wikipedia however keeps being deleted to soon. The arctle has been posted before being finished to allow the url link be posted to the admins of www.nonoba.com themselfs who agreed to help me write it. —Preceding unsigned comment added by ShadowStalker35 (talk • contribs)

• Realness or bigness are not a part of our criteria for website inclusion... mostly what matters is whether there are enough reliable sources which have written meaningful coverage about the site. --Rividian (talk) 01:06, 4 June 2008 (UTC)
• Endorse speedy deletion, textbook case of a CSD A7. If the site is genuinely notable, I suggest you try again with references to awards won, newspaper and magazine articles about the site, etc. See Wikipedia:Notability (web) for more details. --Stormie (talk) 01:42, 4 June 2008 (UTC)
• Endorse speedy deletion, article made no claim of notability. --Kinu ^t/_c 02:54, 4 June 2008 (UTC)
• Endorse speedy deletion made nothing even approaching an assertion of significance. If you can prove it meets Wikipedia:Notability (web) then it can be unprotected, but you haven't. Hut 8.5 11:58, 4 June 2008 (UTC)
• Comment - If you'd like more time to work on the article, try doing so in your userspace at a subpage. Say, at User:ShadowStalker35/Nonoba or something like it. Then, after it meets all the relevant guidelines you can move it into mainspace. Cheers. --lifebaka (Talk - Contribs) 14:56, 4 June 2008 (UTC)
• Endorse deletion; there are very many gaming communities and the version in the cache did not indicate why this particular one has importance. The way forward, as suggested above, is for the nominator to develop a sourced version in user space and then seek agreement for it to be moved across. Smile a While (talk) 22:21, 4 June 2008 (UTC)

Nonoba is of note because it's the only website so far to offer the muti-player API that is free as with sources and the whole site I guess I messed up in the planing of the main page for I first made the page so the URL would be shown by the time I have fully wrote the artcule it was deleted and then repeated. Since I am not the only one who wishes to help create the page and it be a lot easyer if it was unprotected. I will have the talk page updated. Umm... could I use the site itself as a sourse? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 70.144.137.219 (talk) 00:50, 5 June 2008 (UTC)

I've discussed this with the deleting admin in depth but in short: a) published writer for the fourth largest broadsheet in Manila is enough to avoid a speedy, and these can be verified; b) there's been so much vandalism including hoax claims that numerous speedies have been declined; c) she deleted it as a G7 when the person requesting a speedy was not the original author. While I have doubts this article will pass AfD (tho I'm trying to find secondary sources), I don't think this was a clear speedy because, "An article about a real person, organization (band, club, company, etc.), or web content that does not indicate why its subject is important or significant. This is distinct from questions of verifiability and reliability of sources, and is a lower standard than notability; to avoid speedy deletion an article does not have to prove that its subject is notable, just give a reasonable indication of why it might be notable." I'm willing to take it right to AfD if consensus is to gieve it a chance but I wanted to get consensus. _{TravellingCari}^{the Busy Bee} 01:42, 3 June 2008 (UTC)

Since I'd already told Travellingcari it was ok to restore it, I see no reason for this DRV. I think it's an A7 (and it has other things in its history) but if others want to save it I'm more than ok with that. Gwen Gale (talk) 02:04, 3 June 2008 (UTC)

Withdrawn with OK to restore. Feel free to take it to AfD if you don't think he's notable but he exists and is published, don't think it's an A7. _{TravellingCari}^{the Busy Bee} 12:43, 3 June 2008 (UTC)
