NFSCars[edit]

Need for speed fan website. Article fails to establish notability, Alexa rank 72,636. Delete, possibly a speedy deletion candidate. - Mike Rosoft 19:15, 16 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Keep - Why delete this page? Why not the 500 other sites which are much less useful than this one? What about Catahya? What the hell is that? That page is noting compared to NFSCars. You people seem to delete whatever you think is the slightest thing that's stupid to you.

No notability? I laugh at you. How come NFSCars was recognized in EA's community spotlight in 2005?

“

NFScars opened its doors in 2000 and currently has over 5000 files for the nfs series as well as the largest active community!

Keep - I agree on keeping this page. You say it has no notability right? Well, it has a lot. As you might not be interested in this, I'm sure you'd be surprised to find out how many people are interested in this. I have said my word. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by TargaGuy (talk • contribs) 20:09, 16 February 2007 (UTC).[reply]

Delete - just another promotional fansite vanity entry with nothing to add to the "sum of human knowledge", as usual. Chris cheese whine 21:13, 16 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Keep - So? Come on. Get real. What does Freya (Ragnarok Online) add to the "sum of human knowledge"? What does Blue's News add? What does Infinite Cat Project add? I could go on all day. Use your brain before posting please.

So nominate them for deletion, then. Chris cheese whine 10:40, 21 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Keep - No sum of human knowledge? I'm sure you could learn a lot about cars and 3D modeling on the site.

Strong Delete - Wikipedia is not a repository of links. Wikipedia is not an indiscriminate collection of information. As well as this, Wikipedia is not a battleground. If the anonymous user who commented "Use your brain before posting please." was using his/her/its brain, he/she/it would have known how to sign their name (sorry, couldn't resist), as well as realize that whether or not other articles are or aren't encyclopedic makes no difference on the notability or suitability of this dreadful article. --Action Jackson IV 23:45, 16 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Keep - Why is everyone flaming this page? I try to make something that might interest people and everybody insults it. It's not a copyright, it's not insulting anyone and it's definalty not pointless. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by TargaGuy (talk • contribs) 00:40, 17 February 2007 (UTC).[reply]

Look, I'm sorry. But look at all of those other pages that have an even smaller amount of information whose subjects I haven't even heard of. Of all the pages you choose, tell me, why this one? Why not the others?

Comment - Because this is the one that happened to be selected. If you feel there are other articles that should be deleted, feel free to nominate them yourself. Other crap exists - it doesn't change this article's crap-status in any way, shape or form. --Action Jackson IV 01:23, 17 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I'm sorry, I'm not sure crap is the right word, maybe helpful to some people.

LISTEN, If you don't like the page, DON'T COMMENT ON IT! If you leave it here, I'm surte many people will benefit from this page. If you don't like it, I respect that...but please just give it a chance.

Die page die!

Ok, Martin N / nextgen / hi fi / Motoroller / whatever you want to be called, you can stop it.

One of the senior members at NFSCars, Linkin, discovered that the person giving this page a bunch of shit is Martin N, [1] a former troll on NFSCars, their IPs match. Martin N's IP also matches with trolls on NFSCars such as hi_fi, [2] Motoroller [3], and a few others -JRice80

He joined in June 2004, that's not even close to noob. I recommend you stop harassing me.

I never said you were a noob. You harassed us first, you know.

I think this is the final nail in the coffin: http://nfscars.net/forum/showthread.php?t=19281&page=2 ^very bad things about wikipedians.

Targaguy's alt account: El_Countach has agreed that the quality of this page is 7th-grade http://nfscars.net/forum/showthread.php?p=348791

yet he wants it here? hmm

I did not know TG had multiple accounts on NFSCars... that is WEIRD.

Keep - This site has kept the old NFS games alive for so long now. It deserves to be on Wikipedia. I mean if Newgrounds ended up on Wikipedia, I sure as hell can't see why NFSCars, the best, most popular, most revolutionary and most active NFS site ever made shouldn't be on Wiki. As long as the information is correct, which it will be when some editing and correcting will be done, this deserves it rightful place on Wiki. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 74.101.149.100 (talk) 20:31, 19 February 2007 (UTC).[reply]

Keep - This article focuses on one of the largest, most active Need For Speed fan sites out there. It has over 6000 cars, tracks and other downloadable content. While it may have been created in haste, leading to poor quality writing, it will be edited and corrected. Please look at this objectively, and disregard the rude and obnoxious posts/edits from other members. Canada Kid 05:56, 20 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

So prove it. Chris cheese whine 10:41, 21 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Delete per WP:NOT agree that it could be speedied. Reywas92^Talk 17:33, 21 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]
