Keep this article

I agree with the other editors who support keeping this article. It provides good encylopedic information on a notable subject. I oppose merging or deleting it. ChildofMidnight (talk) 01:53, 24 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Unfortunately it fails WP:V. No evidence was actually provided to show it was notable. Simply claiming it is without providing any sources doesn't actually make it notable. They've managed to find all of 2 trivial mentions of crack intros which sources all of 2 sentences, which means 99% of this is unsourced which means it can't stay here. Numerous people looked for days to try and find sources to defend it and that was all they could come up with. Unless you can provide sources to satisfy the policy requirements the article can't stay the way it is.--Crossmr (talk) 01:55, 26 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

This article can help establisjh notability, but since it quotes Wikipedia we shouldn't use it as a source I think. --Apoc2400 (talk) 15:55, 29 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

If it can't be used as a citation it can't be used to establish notability.--Crossmr (talk) 03:41, 2 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

An other, but in Swedish: [1]

If you read through the AFD, you'll see that other sources do exist. In Crossmr's reality, they don't though. - hahnch e n 18:13, 29 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Then demonstrate them. Also read WP:NOTE under trivial coverage. The only 2 sources provided during afd (one in the afd one added to the article) contained a single sentence about crack intros. Neither of those are "significant coverage of the subject by reliable third party sources independent of the subject". Perhaps you should spend more time finding sources instead of trying to make personal attacks. A piracy based organization isn't really independent of the subject of something else also related to piracy, nor is it significant coverage of cracks intros. Its an interview with some guy named dubmood in which he seems to answer 1 question which talks about crack intros a couple times and name drops it a couple more times. Significant coverage has been traditionally held on wikipedia to mean a full article actually dedicated to the subject in question.--Crossmr (talk) 03:41, 2 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]
