Comment. Is that possible with the "nofollow" thing in place? Sarsaparilla (talk) 18:29, 10 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Keep - It would certainly be better if it was something other than a totally bare-bones article, one that gave some background on the site, what its purpose and philosophy is, what the scope of its holdings are. But notwithstanding the deficiencies of the article as it stands (which can always be changed), I really do have to ask -- what is the essential difference between the site that's the subject of this article, and IMDB? That one's been around longer? That one has corporate backing and the other doesn't? It seems to me that people are jumping on this site and calling it spam without giving it a fair shake, or even looking closely at what the site has to offer. It looks to me like a knee-jerk response rather than a carefully considered one. Ed Fitzgerald (unfutz) (talk / cont) 12:08, 6 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]
The same argument can be applied for any website, but WP:WEB applies here. Testing under WP:SET, searching for MoviePosterDB.com -site:MoviePosterDB.com OR MoviePosterDB -site:MoviePosterDB.com OR "Internet Movie Poster Database" -site:MoviePosterDB.com shows nothing. In comparison, searching for IMDB.com -site:imdb.com OR IMDB -site:imdb.com OR "Internet Movie Database" -site:imdb.com shows 7,460 results. Any website can cite a general purpose for being included, but here, policy reigns. The record clearly shows that MoviePosterDB.com is not prominent for its own article. —Erik (talk • contrib) - 13:03, 6 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]
