This page cites no reliable sources. I see nothing that would make this website be considered notable; per GNG, there's no significant independent coverage in reliable sources. The contents of the site, represented as "parody", can border on attack or libel, and thus this should be deleted. — KV5 • Talk • 21:13, 6 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]
- Speedy delete as a non-notable website; I can find no sources whatsoever which mention this website. ItsZippy (talk • contributions) 21:21, 6 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

- Delete Fails WP:WEB and WP:GNG, lacking significant, independent coverage from multiple reliable sources.—Bagumba (talk) 01:20, 7 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete It's a funny light-hearted parody site, but I don't think there's anything to satisfy WP:WEB or WP:GNG. I think the whole claim of it being a libelous attack site is taking it more than bit far, though. That'd be like saying Saturday Night Live is filled with nothing but libelous lies or some other nonsense. Just delete it, don't curbstomp the parody site as some sort of evil libelous attack site.

- I removed the speedy deletion tag that ItsZippy added. I was able to find this article in Gelf Magazine, there's a mention in the Village Voice here, and the Wall Street Journal has mentioned the website (and linked to it) multiple times including here, here, and here for example.
