The result was keep. Poorly written, but the site has had a LOT of press in the UK (mostly negative, but hey ho). Needs a good rewrite, but clearly notable Black Kite 22:53, 7 September 2008 (UTC)

Lack of clear notability, sourcing. Does not appear to be particularly notable. rootology (C)(T) 13:37, 4 September 2008 (UTC)

• Keep. This is a well-known social networking site, along the lines of Facebook and MySpace. Has received coverage in The Register and other news sources. Article requires adequate sourcing and cleanup, not deletion. -- JediLofty ^{Talk to me}_{Follow me} 16:09, 4 September 2008 (UTC)
• Keep - Although not as notable as it once once due to the rise of the big three networking sites (MySpace, Facebook and Bebo), it's still notable. ~ NossB (talk) 17:43, 4 September 2008 (UTC)

• Keep - No idea why it was nominated for deletion in the first place. I havent had the chance to clean the article up before, but it isnt bad enough to warrant a deletion. Dead-or-Red (talk) 16:29, 6 September 2008 (UTC)

• Keep - Faceparty is still a notable website. It is referenced in many online sources and UK news papers including the Guardian. It has many thousands of members (and millions of ex members) and it has raised a fair amount of controversy. This makes it a very notable article. Munta (talk) 02:46, 7 September 2008 (UTC)
