- Still listed here, as the AfD was put in while {{hangon}} was in effect. Plus, it's been recreated three times, so far, by its author. AubreyEllenShomo 17:22, 20 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Speedy delete. I support the speedy delete already done. If reversed, I support doing a delete or speedy delete. AubreyEllenShomo 17:20, 20 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep. This page is perfectly valid. It mirrors any other wikipedia page on a website. The page is and was under construction. It needs to be added upon, not deleted. User: DB71187 As the creator of the HOTSOUP page, can someone please tell me how I can change it to be deemed valid??
- Dear, DB71187. I apperciate your question, but AfD is not the place to ask. I would check out the New Contributor's Help Page. I'd also look at WP:ORG for the notability guidelines, and WP:ADVERT#How_not_to_be_a_spammer for help on why it's been considered an advertisement, and how to prevent that.

Keep. How is this page different from the page for Facebook? How is it different than the page for Bebo? Both are similar sites. How could this page be changed in order for it to be deemed appropriate? User:DB71187

Keep. Instead of deleting this page, people should offer suggestions on how to change the page in order for it to be valid. It need to be changed, yes, but instead of just deleting it people should explain how it can be modified.

- Third Duplicate Vote by DB71187 - I wish to note that this unsigned keep is by the user DB71187, the author of the HOTSOUP article. (See: Diff/History for this vote). AubreyEllenShomo 17:55, 20 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- To add DB71187 has removed comments from this AfD. Wildthing61476 17:56, 20 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Keep. I've read the rules of Wikipedia, I just don't understand how this site falls under the category of an advertisement. The page is about a website that exisits and that many people visit everyday. How can I change the Wikipedia page so it won't be considered an advertisement? Can someone please explain that to me!
