Speedy got declined but I still fail to see what's notable about this site. It calls itself "a comprehensive automotive resource that fulfils both the advertising needs of car dealers and the research and information needs of car buyers", but basically it's just a database of secondhand cars in Canada. And ads. As far as I can tell it fails WP:WEB. SIS 02:01, 28 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete: per WP:WEB. Schuym1 (talk) 02:03, 28 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete or Merge into CANOE. Zero Kitsune (talk) 02:17, 28 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Merge with Canadian Online Explorer (Canoe) I was the admin who declined the speedy. To my mind, it contained an assertion of notability as a subsidiary of Canoe (A7 requires that notability be not even asserted, not just merely unproven). But I can't seem to find anything that indicates it meets WP:CORP or WP:WEB on its own. Blueboy96 04:04, 28 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Redirect and maybe mention at CANOE. Not a notable site on its own, but worth a line on the article of the parent company/website. Lankiveil (speak to me) 06:53, 28 November 2008 (UTC).[reply]
- Keep Proposed edit at User:Disco Dodge. Notability not proven by original author; my edit expands entry and includes references. Meets WP:Web. COI: I've been a fan of their reviews/articles for years. Disco Dodge (talk) 04:58, 2 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- With all respect for your efforts, but how does a rewrite of the article make the site more notable?
