B0g.org

[edit]

Advert, POV. 65,000 google hits. Luigi30 14:26, 6 Feb 2005 (UTC)

  • DELETE--ZayZayEM 15:03, 6 Feb 2005 (UTC)
  • Delete. Forums are miniscule, and if you actually go to the end of the google result, you find only 465 results, the remainder of the references are all repeats from the same 465 sites. CryptoDerk 23:53, Feb 6, 2005 (UTC)
  • Keep. I see links to b0g.org all the time on IRC etc. By reading this article i learned things i didn't know about the place before. Wiki is not paper so this article doesn't do any harm being there. Clean up if it's too POViewy. bbx 03:02, 7 Feb 2005 (UTC)
    • It's not what harm it does. It's what good it does. In this case, it doesn't do any good at all to Wikipedia, whilst doing a lot of good for the visibility of a heretofore largely unknown website. Whilst Wiki is not paper Wikipedia is not a website directory nor an advertising billboard. Notability not established. Delete. Uncle G 16:22, 2005 Feb 8 (UTC)
      • KeepI like the layout of your objection, and the relevant links so we can have a discussion given the facts/details of what was decided that Wikipedia. Of course Wikipedia not, as you state, a a website directory, however I think that B0G.org is notible enough to deserve its own entry. Is there a method we can agree upon so we know if a site deserves its own article (Amazon.com, Slashdot.org, etc) based on web traffic? --ShaunMacPherson 17:39, 9 Feb 2005 (UTC)
  • Delete, not notable. --fvw* 03:04, 2005 Feb 7 (UTC)
  • Keep. I see nothing wrong with the article. fmsmoothie 04:20, 7 Feb 2005 (UTC)
    • user's only contribution to Wikipedia so far is this vote
  • Delete, not notable - filter Google results and you get less than 500 hits. Megan1967 05:12, 8 Feb 2005 (UTC)
  • Delete, as this is a website, the Wikipedia:Alexa test is much more applicable than the google test in this case, and it has a site rank of over 3.5 million [1]. In the past, anything over 100,000 has been perceived as relatively non-notable. --DropDeadGorgias (talk) 20:34, Feb 8, 2005 (UTC)
    • Umm dropdeadgorgias, before you start thinking your so smart its www.b0g.org not.com and it is ranked 22,004. So it is notable by your standards. (Posted by User:Fmsmoothie)
  • Delete: website promo. Wile E. Heresiarch 04:47, 9 Feb 2005 (UTC)
  • Delete -- Curps 23:51, 9 Feb 2005 (UTC)
  • Keep. B0g.org has over 20000 user accounts - surely that has some note. The forums are not the main section of the site - the articles are where all the commenting takes place. Although wiki is not a place for advertising websites, b0g.org is one of the predominant user run (rather than administrator run) humor forums on the net.
  • Keep. This is a well known site and deserves a place here.
  • Delete, spamvertisement. GRider\talk 18:55, 11 Feb 2005 (UTC)
  • Keep. If goatse.cx deserves an article of its own, there is no reason to erase this one. ShrimpEr 20:34, 14 Feb 2005 (UTC)
