Japanese Historical Maps[edit]

(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

Non-notable website. Fails both criteria of WP:WEB:

It is not sufficiently covered by outside sources. Several websites do make mention of the website as reference or as a sort of further reading recommendation, but none seems to cover the site itself. In other words, there are not enough third-party sources to write this article with or establish its notability.
It has not won any well-known, independent awards. In the first AfD of this article 5 years ago, one user makes mention of the website winning the "Internet Resource of the Month" award from GEO World. Neither GEO World nor the monthly award are notable themselves. 舎利弗 (talk) 01:09, 23 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Delete – per reasons one and two, and the fact that it is a non-notable website, just like most sites. United States Man (talk) 01:13, 23 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Delete per due article doesn't meet Wikipedia's notablity standards.--Yacatisma (talk) 04:47, 23 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. Given the absence of any third-party sourcing or in-depth coverage, basic notability does not appear to have been established. --DAJF (talk) 13:37, 27 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]
