[edit] Modelresource.ca

Appears to be an ad. ~600 hits on google, many of which are the site itself. Dark Shikari 13:35, 27 July 2006 (UTC)

I won't oppose the deletion if it does in fact contravene the policies of self-promotion. Recently - because of the success of Canada's Next Top Model - I've been requested to speak at a lot of events. As the event organizers take proposals to potential third-party sponsors a lot are asking what Modelresource.ca is.

I tried to be fair in what I wrote (not listing numbers of visitors, for example), but as I re-read it I can see how it might come across as vanity or blatant advertising. If you can suggest revisions I'm open to that, otherwise, as I said, I won't oppose deletion if you feel there is no place for it on Wikipedia. Dangle14 13:59, 27 July 2006 (UTC)

The main issue is that you have no sources other than the website itself. A Wikipedia article on the topic needs secondary sources like newspaper articles. Dark Shikari 14:00, 27 July 2006 (UTC)

Fair enough. I won't argue that. Dangle14 14:07, 27 July 2006 (UTC)

• Delete. Does not appear to meet the criteria in the WP:WEB guideline. The article also contains unverified statements (i.e. who visits the site). Agent 86 17:41, 27 July 2006 (UTC)
