This could potentially be controversial- Jinx.com seems a fairly famous website, but I am seeing no evidence that it is notable, and so I bring it here for discussion. I was responsible for cleaning the article a little a while back, and even removed a prod, but I basically did that because I had heard of the site, and so assumed it must be notable.
