The result of the debate was No consensus, so keep --Allen3 ^talk 01:09, August 6, 2005 (UTC)

Non notable, just another webforum, also appears to be unencyclopedic and very POV. Jtkiefer ^{T | @ | C} ----- 22:09, July 25, 2005 (UTC)

Keep - The whole "notable members" thing started out as a joke that got carried away. Plus, this article's been here for a while without being nominated for deletion. Plus, Toon Zone is not just another webforum. It's where most people go for reliable animation news, not to mention information from professionals themselves. --Beau99 22:46, 25 July 2005 (UTC)[reply]

• Comment: Alexa rank 15,900. Google gives 900 inbound links, Google groups gives 3500 hits. Forums seem very active for their size: 18,000 registered users, 7000 of them "active", 150 visiting the site in the last 15 minutes. --Carnildo 23:28, 25 July 2005 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete. This is hardly encyclopedic. — Trilobite (Talk) 01:03, 26 July 2005 (UTC)[reply]

• I was prepared to vote keep on this, so I went to Google to find information to bolster my vote, but found that, although Google says there are "about 53,600" hits, it turns out that, in fact, there are only 28 unique hits, and, of those, except for Wikipedia there are only 7 sites which mention "Toon Zone" which are not toonzone.net -- and one of those is toonzone.com.au. There are, however, many more hits on Yahoo! search. Over 1000 hits from Yahoo!, which is the limit that Yahoo! returns. Therefore, I vote Keep. John Barleycorn 04:58, July 26, 2005 (UTC)

Comment: I forgot to check yahoo search, I've become too accustomed to using google for searching for everything, thanks for reminding me to use more than search engine when checking links, even though I don't agree that a fair number of links on a search engine equals notability.

Comment: Good point, but Toon Zone's forum has many active members (right now, 6,983), and 232 people have visited it in the last 15 minutes. Not to mention they have animation professionals (voice actors, producers, etc.) go there from time to time. Wouldn't that be notable to you? --Beau99 14:50, 26 July 2005 (UTC)[reply]
