The result was Delete. Self-admitted "new site" fails WP:WEB; keep arguments don't argue on this point, really, so it is substantively undisputed here. Xoloz 16:58, 21 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Fails WP:WEB, as near as I can figure. Article is extremely promotional and actively solicits nude models from within the article itself. Ξxtreme Unction|yakkity yak 03:32, 12 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete per nom and as an ad. Danny Lilithborne 03:50, 12 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- KeepIt is not meant to be an Ad. I do not work for the site or get paid by them, but I am a member. I created the entry as a factual document of the founding and operation of the site based on the facts I found in their forums and FAQ. I started the article after reading the suicidegirls wiki. Since DN was founded by a former employee of SG (and several of the models are SG refugees as well), I thought it would be relevant. As the site grows and expands, I expect the entry to as well. I didn't' think linking to the model app would be a problem, but have now removed it. Membership pricing and model pay scale are included solely as informational pieces and not meant to solicit business or new models. Torklugnutz 04:39, 12 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep, although you should perhaps add that part about it being founded by former models of Suicide Girls, and how that shapes their operations. Remove the bits that sound like promotion, but keep the article with NPOV. --Down10 TACO 07:18, 12 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

- Delete as per nom. Lankiveil 12:33, 12 September 2006 (UTC).[reply]
- Delete per nom. Alexa rank of 221,806 versus 2,573 for SuicideGirls suggests that they are not quite in the same league. And heck, if they are, as the article suggests, run by Satan, they don't need Wikipedia's help. William Pietri 01:01, 13 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete :) Dlohcierekim 21:55, 13 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Did a little more editing, removed "Site Features" and replaced with "Site Trivia". Also, in rebuttal to William Pietri, DN is a new site, whereas SG has been around for years. Obviously the older site is going to have a higher Alexa rank. They've got a much larger user base. DN doesn't need Wiki's help. This article is meant to be a place for the history of the site to have a home. :) TorkLugnutz01:14, 14 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Hi. If you'd like to keep the history of your site somewhere, I'd suggest your site is the right place for that. Once that history is covered by reliable sources, then we'll be sure to include it here. Hoping that helps, William Pietri 00:34, 14 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

- Keep I see nothing wrong with it, but the part about what they are looking for in models should probably go.— Preceding unsigned comment added by 140.232.152.157 (talk • contribs)
