Completing nomination requested by 82.81.125.200 (talk · contribs) [1]. Rationale is "I saw this article and it does not appear to be notable--just fluff to promote a start-up website". I am neutral — frankie (talk) 18:39, 19 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete - Does not seem to be notable: none of the source provided seem reliable (mostly blogs, etc). There also seem to be big problems with POV and is written like an advert. ItsZippy (talk • contributions) 18:53, 19 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]

- Delete, yes, without reliable sources, advertisement, and doesn't meet WP:WEB. Alex discussion ★ 21:00, 19 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep, I came to the article looking for information about this website, because I was curious after some people discussed participated in many InterNation events. I wouldn't want it to be deleted. It has alexa rank 10,760, so it is a high-traffic website. I agree there is much potential for improving the article, but I think it's much better and easier to improve existing articles, than to start over and over again all the time.

- Fuelbottle, I appreciate your concern but, if we are to keep the article, we need to establish notability. Can you provide any sources which demonstrate the subject of the article to be notable? ItsZippy (talk • contributions) 15:15, 26 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]
