Completely lacks any significant coverage. Mythpage88 (talk) 08:28, 30 August 2012 (UTC)

Note: This debate has been included in the list of Internet-related deletion discussions. • Gene93k (talk) 20:04, 30 August 2012 (UTC)

• Delete as per nom. MaNeMeBasat (talk) 12:00, 3 September 2012 (UTC)
• Keep. This survived AfD once before, and now it's been covered in a book, and is a top 40 (or top 25) network, depending on who one consults. Further sources are certainly possible, so deletion is not the obvious choice. A look at WP:BEFORE might have prevented this nomination. --Lexein (talk) 19:03, 3 September 2012 (UTC)
  • A look at WP:BEFORE did not prevent this nomination. Not every IRC network is notable. Just because it's in the top 40, or even the top 25, does not make it notable by any means. Coverage is needed. It's been covered in a book, yes, but two pages of coverage is not significant coverage, which is needed to assert notability. Mythpage88 (talk) 21:03, 3 September 2012 (UTC)
