Fails WP:WEB. Coverage I can see are alexa rankings (which aren't useful) and an interview on an unreliable website concerning the guy who designed the site. Ironholds (talk) 06:53, 28 June 2010 (UTC)
- Delete. OTRS ticket 2010062810007634 strongly suggests that this article was created by the owner of the site, which is unlikely. However, it was created by a self-confessed thrice-banned member of the site, which is a conflict of interest and is supported by the contributions of the article's creator. Long story short: doesn't, in my opinion, meet the notability requirements and has COI issues. Chase me ladies, I'm the Cavalry (talk) 10:39, 28 June 2010 (UTC)
