GTAForums

contested PROD. I don't think this website passes WP:WEB. The only event related to it is a low profile hoax that EA might have been willing to buy them at one moment. -- lucasbfr ^talk 11:45, 7 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Delete complete failure of WP:WEB, WP:N, etc. I would have speedy-deleted it myself, but no harm getting consensus to make it stick better. Andrew Lenahan - Starblind 12:11, 7 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Delete The hoax part isn't even sourced reliably. Beyond that I see nothing. Ten Pound Hammer and his otters • ^{(Broken clamshells • Otter chirps • HELP)} 12:46, 7 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Delete The only notable aspect may be that there was reliable source coverage of the April Fool's joke about the EA takeover - this may be better (if such a page exists) of notable April Fool's jokes in the Video Game industry, but as for the website, definitely not. --MASEM 13:20, 7 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Don't delete Doesn't the largest GTA fanbase on the internet deserve an article? GTAForums has been home to many GTA game modifications, many of which are highly useful and well-known to the GTA gaming community. It should, at least, have an article.

Nothing "deserves" an article, and there is nothing in Wikipedia policy or guideline enshrining GTA fandom as having any importance beyond, well, GTA fandom. There's no reason to presume this website isn't important to that community, but what part of WP:WEB does this site fulfill? Make mine Delete. RGTraynor 15:36, 7 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Weak delete — It's not that it doesn't deserve one, it's just that there isn't enough significant coverage from reliable secondary sources to establish notability. MuZemike 14:40, 7 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Delete Non-notable gamer forum. Beeblebrox (talk) 15:26, 7 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Delete gamer forum which doesn't meet WP:WEB -- probably not a speedy candidate but either way. coccyx bloccyx_(toccyx) 17:35, 7 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]
