  • DELETE. Non-notable, non-encyclopedic, and commericial vanity. ExplorerCDT 02:04, 25 Oct 2004 (UTC)
  • Keep, obviously. Ridiculous listing. Everyking 02:05, 25 Oct 2004 (UTC)
  • Keep. One of the top 100 most visited websites on the 'net. (Edit: #38, to be exact, according to Alexa.) If that's not notable, then the Red Sox don't deserve to win the World Series. Mo0 02:06, 25 Oct 2004 (UTC)
  • Keep. I believe this listing is part of a fight over stuff too tedious to follow between some get-a-lifers. - DavidWBrooks 02:08, 25 Oct 2004 (UTC)
  • Keep. Not encyclopedic my ass. If this gets deleted, then I'm going to request that the McDonald's, Exxon Mobil and Microsoft pages be deleted on the grounds of them being "corporate vanity". JoeBaldwin 02:34, Oct 25, 2004 (UTC)
  • Keep, for reasons already stated. Bloody ridiculous. Let's chuck out half the Wikipedia while we're at it! Reene (リニ) 03:54, 25 Oct 2004 (UTC)
  • Keep This is not a page that contains any commercial vanity. Raysearch91
  • Er, are you kidding? Like Mo0 said: 38th most visited website out there. That's notable, considering the internet has, oh, what, a billion or so sites? More? <sarcasm> Hey, let's delete Rutgers University - after all, its inclusion is mere educational vanity, no? Heck, it's only the 8th oldest "institution of higher learning" in the US. What does that matter? </sarcasm> Keep!. PMC 23:14, 27 Oct 2004 (UTC)
  • Keep, obviously. Recommend ExplorerCDT be forced to get an account on Neopets.com :) . -- Netoholic @ 06:32, 2004 Oct 28 (UTC)
  • Keep There's other website articles like Newgrounds, Miniclip, Neowin which makes it Wiki-cyclopedic. And Neopets IS a notable website for youngsters around the world. squash 06:35, Oct 28, 2004 (UTC)
  • Keep. It's informational, and the subject matter is popular. - Vague Rant 06:38, Oct 28, 2004 (UTC)
  • Keep Because Neopets are popular, some people will inevitably look up Neopets and we should provide the information. Just remove any nonfactual boasting from the article. WpZurp 06:40, 28 Oct 2004 (UTC)
    • the Neopets article is good ... includes various controversy such as the Scientology connection and the controversy over gambling WpZurp 06:44, 28 Oct 2004 (UTC) -- people should get this kind of information
      • Wow, that's weird, I never heard about the Scientology bit before. See? The page is useful, it educates people. PMC 23:11, 28 Oct 2004 (UTC)
  • Keep. Notable, has merchandise, etc. Andre (talk) 17:30, Oct 28, 2004 (UTC)
  • Keep - haha what? silsor 23:15, Oct 29, 2004 (UTC)
