...Is it worth having an article on this? This is how it looked when I tagged it for speedy deletion [1]. Then it went to this. Now, a week later, despite stub tags being added, it's still arguably non-notable.
This is my first time doing this [nominating an AfD] - make it special. Dlae│here 14:05, 13 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Comment Fixed malformed nomination (please use the {{afd2}} template). Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL; there's one article from the New York Times [2]. Along with the CNet review, it might squeak by WP:N, though I'm not too sure. cab (talk) 14:13, 13 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Weak keep A CNET review and NY Times article are enough for me, especially since it comes from such a major toy company. — brighterorange (talk) 15:22, 13 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- I improved the article a bit. — brighterorange (talk) 15:29, 13 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete, even with the item being mentioned once in the NY Times, it doesn't pass WP:N in my opinion. Poeloq (talk) 16:26, 13 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Weak keep I'm seeing several news stories on this[3]; in addition to the ones mentioned above, there's the Newsweek piece, Arab News, International Herald Tribune, and others. --Fabrictramp (talk) 21:14, 14 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- IHT one seems to be a reprint of the NYT; both start out "Shaped like a hockey puck and just about as indestructible, the Kid-Tough FP3 Player from Fisher-Price puts music and stories at children's fingertips". And both that and the Arab News report are pretty short; the Newsweek one is even shorter, just 3 lines in a 95-item list. cab (talk) 07:22, 15 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep - google news sites, such as New York Times, Arab News, and others establish that this passes WP:CORP. The Evil Spartan (talk) 02:15, 19 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]
