Webjay

Was tagged for speedy deletion by User:SGBailey for being "non-notable advert" but it's a web site that just got bought by Yahoo. According to Alexa, there are 78 sites that link to it including some big ones like Slashdot. Bringing it to AfD to respect SGBailey's desire to see it gone. howcheng {chat} 23:37, 9 January 2006 (UTC)

• Keep. Purchase by Yahoo was announced today. —Quarl ^(talk) 2006-01-10 01:18Z
• Keep. I suspect the confusion is that from the way the "article" is written it appears that the site was started today, rather than just bought by Yahoo. On that basis I nearly tagged it CSD myself. Seems notable enough. bikeable (talk) 02:17, 10 January 2006 (UTC)

• keep I made the article a little more substantial and hopefully that (implicitly) explains why I'm voting to keep.Mike Linksvayer 18:51, 11 January 2006 (UTC)

• Speaking as the author of Webjay, I should say that I did not create this page, so it is not an advert in a formal sense. I'm not voting here, just stating what I know.
