Speedily deleted once for lack of notability. Author now claims "I believe I have made the necessary edits to have the page remain". I disagree. — RHaworth (talk · contribs) 12:14, 11 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Delete Interesting website, but it does not meet WP:NWEB. --bonadea contributions talk 18:58, 11 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]

This entry has cultural and political significance to North American First Nations groups. I have contacted the organizer of the First Nations Seeker to request more 3rd party references, preferably peer-reviewed journal articles ggatin (talk) 21:19, 11 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]

As webmaster of First Nation Seeker, I wish to say I DID NOT originate this new Wikipedia page about First Nations Seeker. But now that I am aware of it, it is painful to go through this death row experience. I think the reason that it hasn't been written about is that it so novel that it doesn't process in peoples' brains. Certainly, I am light years ahead of the average Native American who tend to focus on their local areas... Meanwhile on January 1, 2013, Google clobbered First Nations Seeker with a "banishment" penalty. Reasons unknown. No SEO going on here. Recently though, Google has relisted it, albeit, far down in the results such that the site only gets about 20 visitors per day. In effect, they've done their very best to ensure that the site is ineffective. That hasn't stopped such organizations as Yale University Library or the Library of Congress from linking to it though...

Delete - While clearly a worthy internet project, this fails the General Notability Guideline. Good luck to the webmaster with the work. Carrite (talk) 17:38, 3 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]
