Bump from speedy, article and talk page make assertions of notability and large userbase. —Quarl ^(talk) 2006-12-15 10:30Z

Delete - alexa = 115,076: [1]. Probably fails WP:WEB. MER-C 10:38, 15 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Keep - artice describes site with over 7,100 members, lists 91,500 addresses. One of the few free autograph collecting sites and it is by far the largest. Lutherjw 21:21, 15 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Delete Poor Alexa rank and few members, and more importantly, no references that confirm any notability. -- Kicking222 21:22, 15 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Keep - this is one of the biggest celebrity fanmail websites online, thousands are members in a great community where anyone can ask the moderators for help in collecting. It is totally free, a huge database of addresses is provided, and volunteers help out anyone in need.— Preceding unsigned comment added by 80.4.72.14 (talk • contribs) 15:19, December 15, 2006 (UTC)
Delete - fails WP:WEB. Unimportant website. -IceCreamAntisocial 00:42, 16 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Delete - nothing external to the website suggests its notability, and the creator hasn't supplied anything other than internal numbers. Mytildebang 03:01, 16 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Delete fails WP:WEB and no verification of notability outside its own site. SkierRMH,07:30, 16 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Keep - Popular website. Contains thousands of feedbacks posted by fans and autograph collectors. Example — Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.67.37.29 (talk)
Keep - Great website with tons of members and lots of good info. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 70.144.78.229 (talk) 20:44, 16 December 2006 (UTC).[reply]
Keep - Offers plenty of high quality FREE! information on collecting autographs. The vast majority of similar sites now charge, but this one does not. PeterCarrig 18:17, 22 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Keep - High quality useful website which is well reknowned for its reliable address information for celebs. Is mentioned frequently in the media, most recently in the Boston Globe newspaper. ~~TheCollector 18:27, 22 December 2006 (UTC)~~ No such user; this comment by 86.130.20.202 (talk · contribs)[reply]
Delete, no third party sources, no reliable sources, hell, no sources at all. Sandstein 21:38, 22 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]
