The result of the debate was delete. Nufy8 04:52, 8 September 2005 (UTC)[reply]
The Source is a game-related forum that broke away from another forum because the first forum was too heavily moderated. The site itself says there are fewer than 500 members. The Alexa ranking is 2,968,906. I don't think this has much impact beyond its core usergroup. Joyous (talk) 23:13, August 31, 2005 (UTC)

- Delete per Joyous. This article is just a roster of some of their cabal. -Splash 23:36, 31 August 2005 (UTC)[reply]
- This has certainly been speedied before - and I am almost certain it has been VfD'd as well, but I can't find the discussion. The talk page rather bears this out. If I'm right then speedy and protect, in any case delete --Doc (?) 13:29, 1 September 2005 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete vanity page for mods and
rockersadmins. Alf melmac 12:12, 4 September 2005 (UTC)[reply] - Delete. I'm the admin of the forum in question, and I agree that this article shouldn't exist. However, I take offence to the previous user's comments. Most of that was written by users, not by staff. --The Computer Mutt 04:52, September 5, 2005 (UTC)
- I apologise if you take my mention of vanity article by whichever editors to be out of order. I merely meant it as per Wikipedia:Vanity guidelines, nothing more. "vanity page for"... does not imply what you take offence at. Alf melmac 09:49, 5 September 2005 (UTC)[reply]
- Further to which I note User:The Computer Mutt's edit of the article here, which you added a link to you own User page in the article, whereas I have no objection to that, my initial statement stands. Alf melmac 10:21, 5 September 2005 (UTC)[reply]
