[edit] Newcastle Online

Sirs,

Howard T. Sturgeon believes that Newcastle Online is simply not notable. Howard T. Sturgeon believes that it is certainly less notable than the currently-listed-for-deletion Sunderland Message Board. Howard T. Sturgeon supports the Quinn régime 100%.

As ever,

Howard

• Sirs, Gazpacho believes this article should be merged and redirected to Newcastle United. Gazpacho 22:25, 9 August 2006 (UTC)
  • That, however, is not and has never been a criterion for notability. And sicne I don't see any content to merge: delete.—♦♦ SʘʘTHING^(Я) 10:47, 13 August 2006 (UTC)
• Delete looks to me like it fails WP:WEB. If someone can find the citations for "is sometimes cited by the media to gauge the opinions of the fans on various issues concerning the club", then it'd probably be a weak keep. --james^(talk) 10:43, 13 August 2006 (UTC)
• Delete: Simply not notable. At all. --DavidShankBone 16:20, 14 August 2006 (UTC)
