Talk.bizarre[edit]

I decline to speedy this, since the article has sufficient content that one might consider the newsgroup in question to be notable. However, the newsgroup may remain non-notable. Richard Cavell (talk) 07:34, 19 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Delete By WP:WEB standards, this is no more notable than your average web-based forum that has by and large replaced USENET. Google hits are nearly all for sites that archive USENET postings, just as some sites mirror Wikipedia. Google Groups is merely Google's own newsfeed. The hits in Google News' archive are either false positives, or cites as background for a wider article. Such a mention is not considered valid as a show of notability.
