The blog doesn't meet the criterias on WP:WEB. The article on svwp was deleted for lacking notability. The article on dawp was moved out of ns-0, the article on svwp about the creator of Adland was deleted for lacking notability. The page has been created and maintained by users who are close to Adland (as can be seen on my SPI report). The same text and sources have been added by several new users over the three language versions and almost all of them are used incorrectly as can be seen after a small glance. The article has recently been deleted here on enwp. I suggest the article is deleted and then a creation protection is added. GameOn (talk) 06:50, 2 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Criterion or criteria? Either way, it would seem a shame to delete a reference to a site that I use to read about the advertising business, and which seems an authoritative source. Enteroform Enterform 09:16, 2 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

We need sources that show that the site is notable. Users comming from the site and claiming that they read it are not helping the article from being deleted. GameOn (talk) 09:40, 2 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]
