InterPals[edit]

InterPals (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) – (View log • AfD statistics)

Not covered by reliable sources, therefore fails both the notability and the verification (beyond that it exists) tests. Oh and if you search for this make sure you don't confuse it with InterPal an entirely seperate organisation or Interpal (the international pallet association) or any of the other organisations that uses Interpals as a name in some way.

I agree that there may be some notability issues here, but it does have an Alexa ranking of around 11,000 which pretty high (relative to many other sites in the social networking category). Not sure if that makes a difference, though. Mefistofele (talk) 11:30, 28 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I thought about that but the problem is still, it's not what you are, it's what people (reliable sources) write about you and reliable sources simply aren't writing about this company. If someone could find some decent sources, I'd be happy. --Cameron Scott (talk) 12:13, 28 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I've added a few more sources, but am not sure that this they're reliable enough. Any advice? Thanks! Mefistofele (talk) 12:41, 28 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete - I can find significant coverage, just not in reliable sources. As far as I have been able to find, this fails both general and web specific notability guidelines. ~~ GB fan ~~ ^talk 11:43, 28 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete I'd tagged for speedy as advertising which GB fan declined (hey, you can't blame a gal for trying :) but I can't see this topic is notable. If I'd found evidence that it was the next Facebook, I'd have rewritten it. No idea whether the article creator has any connection with it, but the disgruntled user who keeps adding a bunch of crap to the article has a definite WP:COIElen of the Roads (talk) 12:01, 28 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
• Speedy delete per CSD:A7 (non-notable website). Tagged accordingly. Stifle (talk) 13:56, 28 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy deletion nomination has been declined twice -- and this discussion is already taking place. Can we just finish it here? I've added more sources as per my comment above. Thanks! Mefistofele (talk) 14:01, 28 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

• Keep - I've added more sources, but I'm not sure they qualify as reliable. Can anyone take a look before deleting? Thanks! Mefistofele (talk) 14:02, 28 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
