[edit] The Daily Grind

The Daily Grind (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs) – (View log)

Non-notable website, no reliable secondary sources (references are also dubious). Doesn't comply with WP:WEB. Also created by banned sockpuppet User:ChampagneComedy. Finally, issues with conflict of interest, as sockpuppeteer was User:Joestella, who is involved with the site. Recurring dreams 11:24, 13 September 2007 (UTC)

  • Delete Fails 2 of the 3 notability requirements at WP:WEB - content is not the subject of multiple non-trivial published works other than the webpage itself, and has not won a well-known and independent award. All but one of the references are unrelated to and do not mention The Daily Grind. The remaining reference (to an archive at watercoolergames) is a dead link so I couldn't verify it. The Tharunka reference in the body of the text is genuine but self-referential - the editor of The Daily Grind was at the time also the editor of Tharunka and published his own work in both sources (and so is not independent coverage).
