Deletion edit

This page has been listed for deletion under Wikipedia:Criteria for speedy deletion#A7. Criteria A7 says [this] criterion does not apply to any article that makes any credible claim of significance or importance even if the claim is not supported by a reliable source or does not qualify on Wikipedia's notability guidelines. This article states very clearly in the second paragraph of the History section why the site is significant - I believe the speedy deletion should not take place. -- Fluteflute Talk Contributions 08:12, 22 October 2010 (UTC)Reply

As is stands this article relies almost entirely on references from websites associated with the subject of the article. As such I have tagged it for one source and also notability. The article is also pretty spammy and promotional. Unless someone can find some independent third party refs that establish notability then I think it should go to WP:AFD so the greater community can have a say on it. - Ahunt (talk) 13:25, 22 October 2010 (UTC)Reply
Okay I have addressed all of the issues I brought up above, added two independent refs, removed the tags and added the logo and screenshot (after some confusion there). I also edited the text to make it less spammy, so I don't see a pressing need to take this to AfD at this point. - Ahunt (talk) 14:05, 22 October 2010 (UTC)Reply
