Non-notable (Google), idiosyncratic, probable vanity. Looks like another micronation enthusiast.

I do see the point you are making but it is being worked on as we discuss. It may bee seen as non-notable but is just trying to tell people about the possibilities of online interaction and discussion.
I do apologise for putting the like at the bottom of the United Kingdom encyclopedia page and that I admit was worth of merit of Great Britain and Northern Ireland; but in itse;f deserves to saved.

Plea to voters: A lot of people have been provocative lately. Please, please, please, let's watch our P's and Q's and not let the bitterness over other entries bleed over. This contributor is being polite and sincere, and we ought to be polite as well. Geogre 04:09, 7 Sep 2004 (UTC)

  • "It may bee seen as non-notable but is just trying to tell people about the possibilities of online interaction and discussion." So it's not notable, and noting that "wikipedia is not a web directory", delete.--Samuel J. Howard 18:50, Sep 6, 2004 (UTC)
  • What is the general policy of wikipedia ith respect to cybernations? There are soooo may of them. Mikkalai 18:54, 6 Sep 2004 (UTC)
  • I believe this page should be saved! I see no objection to people wanting something which they believe is adding something to society on the internet, where people may view it. --Jammydodger 18:59, 6 Sep 2004 (UTC)
    • You're perfectly entitled to put it on the internet, just not in an encyclopedia. Trilobite (Talk) 19:02, 6 Sep 2004 (UTC)

  • This is an online grouping, and therefore should be treated the same as other online forums/discussion groups/weblogs of the same size and note (or lack of), which is to delete. Wikipedia is not a web directory - only particularly large and significant groupings are worthy of keeping, this does not appear to be. Average Earthman 09:19, 7 Sep 2004 (UTC)
  • Delete: not notable. Wile E. Heresiarch 03:15, 8 Sep 2004 (UTC)
  • Delete. No known reference to this in any third party source, therefore not notable.--Gene_poole 00:32, 9 Sep 2004 (UTC)
