[edit] Mofunzone
AfDs for this article:
Non-notable website. The website doesn't have reliable sources and doesn't meet the notability guideline WP:WEB. It survived an an earlier deletion discussion a year and a half ago, but all the "keep" arguments were based on Google hits and Alexa ranking, neither of which are indicators of notability and are flawed as described in WP:GOOGLE.

- Delete per WP:WEB. Andrew Lenahan - Starblind 14:53, 28 June 2007 (UTC)

- Keep per earlier deletion failure, plus this site has been around for eight years and is used by millions around the world. It's also one of the earliest providers of online games, casual games, and more. Do a research please, and check the site's stats.—Preceding unsigned comment added by 74.97.249.77 (talk • contribs)
- I did do research, and there's no reliable sources written about this website. You mind showing some? NeoChaosX (talk, walk) 17:42, 4 July 2007 (UTC)
- Well what type of information would you like? There is the Media Awareness Research, Archive.Org's archive of the site for the past 8 years, and Alexa's rating of the site. Considering how relatively new online games and casual games are on the net, mofunzone.com among a few other sites, is the first site to provide casual games both online and for download eight years ago. Another similar and notable site is Newgrounds and much more on wikipedia. I believe this is a waste of time, especially considering this is the third nomination proceeding the previous two failed nominations. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 74.97.249.77 (talk • contribs)
- As I said in the nomination, Alexa rankings aren't reliable sources, nor is archive.org or a listing in a rankings. If you read Wikipedia:Reliable sources, it asks for published, fact-checked sources, which none of the sources you gave are. And just because it failed two previous AfD does not mean this result will be the same; consensus can change, and the keep arguments of the previous AfDs were very weak. Unless you can come up with sources that are more reliable, it might have a chance. NeoChaosX (talk, walk) 21:34, 4 July 2007 (UTC)
- If what I have mentioned previously are not reliable sources, then how do you explain entries such as newgrounds? I can list more!
- If you've got them, then list them. And just because Newgrounds has an article doesn't mean this site should have one, too. NeoChaosX (talk, walk) 05:03, 5 July 2007 (UTC)
