Open Ebooks Directory[edit]

Non-notable commercial website. This article caught my attention when I noticed User:212.12.29.1 spamming many articles with links to e-library.net and sometimes, this article (under "See also"). The article was created by User:Artdhtml. User:Artdhtml self-identifies as Alexei Kouznetsov[1]. A whois[2] reveals that the site belongs to him. His website also says that he is associated with the site ("programming and support")[3]. Alexa rankings: 294,826 (e-library.net) and (943,974) e-library.us. Delete as non-notable. utcursch | talk 10:24, 4 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]
