  • Delete doesn't cite any independent sources at all. I took a look and couldn't find any to cite. - MrOllie (talk) 14:15, 27 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete non-notable, no reliable external sources. --Gpkp [utc] 14:46, 27 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep The article ICY.EMAIL was created for a purpose to include the webmail provider in question (ICY.EMAIL) into the list Comparison of webmail providers, as the list forbids entries of providers who don't have created article about them first. I would argue that this is a list comparing various webmail providers by their features, not a notability contest. It this case the notability is secondary, primary is the information value. The webmail provider in question (ICY.EMAIL) offers free webmail features comparable to, if not better than, many of other webmail providers on the list, 'notability' of about 50% of whose isn't any better than that of ICY.EMAIL. I would therefore argue that the entry in the list, and the related article, should stay, as it is a valuable contribution to this particular comparison table and its omission would unfairly champion the entries already on the list.

We don't create articles purely for lists, If it doesn't have an article - it doesn't make it on a list, If in this case the subject is found to be non-notable than the article will be deleted with the entry removed from whatever list it's on, As I said articles aren't ever created purely for list articles. –Davey2010Talk 16:47, 29 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
