This article was deleted by a previous AFD, but has been recreated by User:Jasonblake69. I am re-listing it because only two people weighed in on the previous AFD, and one of the reasons to delete was "not a vanity page but an attack on the web site's business practices". I think this page should be deleted because it has no claim to notability or importance other than "ranked 23rd of the Top 50 Favourite Sites among wired youth in Canada", which is not exactly convincing. silsor 19:28, 20 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep 160,000+ google hits including Amazon.com. I'll probably never use this site, but doesnt mean it isnt notable for others. Phantasmo 19:42, 20 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- "Notable for others" doesn't mean it needs to have an entry in an encyclopedia. I visit a lot of web sites that are notable to me and no doubt to a large number of people, but I would never dream of writing an encyclopedia article on them. silsor 19:57, 20 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- And as somebody pointed out below, there are under a thousand real google hits (my search gives 547 instead of 666 like he found). silsor 21:28, 20 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Having less than a thousand "real" Google hits (not insinuating 547+ is low) does not mean the site isn't notable. Newgrounds for example only has 567 real Google hits, there are more sites contributed to Wikipedia with even lower Google hits that I can list if requested.

- I mean, where's the recognition of notability? That's a collection of data, a list of sites kids in one country like to visit. silsor 21:25, 20 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Please refer to Alexa for a world wide and all age ranking of the site in question. And If you do a comparison with sites listed in Wikipedia, you will find that MoFunZone does not only rank with those sites but in many cases ranks much higher. Again I protest that wikipedia keep the site. JasonBlake69 14:27, 25 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
