A very low revenue, small potentially non-notable website with one claim of being founded by "children" uncited. Appears to be using the Subway logo for some reason. SGGH ^ping! 10:16, 27 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Delete - only has 9 Google hits, all apparently self-published. Likely a hoax. Gonzonoir (talk) 10:21, 27 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Delete - fails WP:WEB, no sources cited to support notability, and a Google search does not suggest that any independent ones can be found. ~~I don't know what the Subway logo is doing here~~ (it has been removed). JohnCD (talk) 10:28, 27 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Delete fails to achieve notability under WP:WEB due to a lack of independent reliable sources providing in-depth coverage. Drawn Some (talk) 10:37, 27 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Delete non notable, self promotional --ClubOranje^T 11:43, 27 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Delete per all of the above. And for what it's worth, the claim about being the first internet company set up by under 18s is just bunkum. --Dweller (talk) 11:52, 27 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Speedy delete. I was just starting to rewrite this article when I noticed that the only vaguely encyclopaedic content in it was that it was founded in November 2008 and is some sort of portmanteau. Not the first website started by under-18s by a long shot; no notability; I seriously doubt they have any employees or revenue; no notability; no verification.

Keep That was NOT my final copy, the subway logo was a mistake, the revenue is a true fact, and i dont know why you are being such bullies, im only trying to make a page for our company, It is NOT a hoax, and i have no idea why you are trying to act cool by including words that no person that, just started to create a page would know, sheesh. P.S what does bunkum mean, or is that just trying to be cool --George85291 (talk) 11:11, 28 May 2009 (UTC) — George85291 (talk • contribs) has made few or no other edits outside this topic. [reply]

No-one is bullying anyone, so please keep your accusations to yourself. "Bunkum" means "nonsense". If the company truly exists (which I don't think anyone doubts) that is not sufficient for an article on Wikipedia. It needs to be notable. This is an encyclopedia, and just like you wouldn't expect to find an article on the fluff between my big toe and the one next to it, you shouldn't find articles on just any old thing. The way we determine whether an article should be in Wikipedia really boils down to a policy you can read here, with this and this also relevant. To save you a lot of reading, what we're looking for is a company that is:

the subject of multiple, non trivial references in reliable sources

The last of those terms needs further definition (found here), but coverage in mass media like newspapers, magazines, TV programmes and books does the trick nicely. If you read none of the links I provided, please do read this one: WP:Your first article. --Dweller (talk) 10:54, 28 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]
