OldVersion.com[edit]

No references. If we delete what isn't referenced, we end up with an empty, sub-stub article. The article hasn't been referenced since inception, really. There's no evidence of meeting WP:WEB for notability. Mikeblas (talk) 02:19, 30 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Delete per WP:WEB. If it wasn't for the previous AfD this would be a WP:CSD#A7 candidate. Jfire (talk) 05:31, 30 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Delete No significant coverage from independent sources Corpx (talk) 11:00, 30 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Uncertain. I vaguely remember reading about this website in a computer magazine or newspaper, but I don't remember where. Would need more research to see if it is possible to find media mentions of it that might help establish notability. --Itub (talk) 18:08, 30 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Keep or merge -- possibly to somewhere like archive site or history of application software. The archive, notable in itself for uniqueness and survival, just happens to have a web-page format; its notability as a repository does not necessarily depend on the guidelines for the average web-sit-- A respectable link/review appears at http://www.pcmag.com/article2/0,2704,1162680,00.asp -- Pedant17 (talk) 01:04, 31 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Comment. The 72-word "article" at pcmag.com isn't exactly substantial, per WP:N. The current article is completely uncited; WP:V, we're to remove such material, not relocate it. -- Mikeblas (talk) 02:01, 31 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Keep, numerous sources available from Google News Archive including the Wall Street Journal and National Review in addition to "industry" publications. --Dhartung | Talk 05:49, 31 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Keep per Dhartung; great job! Master of Puppets _{Call me MoP!☺} 01:07, 8 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]
