- Notability is different from "popularity". Google news only returns results from the DJBooth site itself. Per WP:WEB, there needs to be reliable sources that discusses the site in detail. Wikipedia isn't paper, but that's not an excuse for non-notable sites to be kept. Spellcast (talk) 10:30, 22 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

- Speedy keep This article surely meets standards. There is enough external links and references, and the website is one of the most visited. --Fan 22:05, 28 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

- Weak delete No proof that it's one of the most popular sites. Also, popular ≠ notable. Ten Pound Hammer and his otters • (Broken clamshells•Otter chirps) 21:44, 31 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Weak delete - I can't find any reliable third party sources which refer to this site. The only reference, that is not a blog, which I found is at a rappers news site. It may be covered by specialist hip hop print media e.g. The Source magazine but I don't have access to this. Nk.sheridan Talk 22:37, 31 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete Can't find any evidence of notability in Google, News, Books, Scholar. Just some passing mentions and interviews by them, nothing reliable specifically about the site. Ryan Paddy (talk) 23:01, 31 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete. No attribution of notability to independent and credible sources. Fails ]

- Strong Keep - Here is an example of a reliable source. Here is another reliable source. And finally, a mention in the Minneapolis Star Tribune. (talk) 12:54, 3 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Comment I'm doubtful whether the first two are reliable sources, and they're definitely not significant discussions of DJBooth.net. They are short articles about artists, mentioning DJBooth.net. The third last is a reliable source, but again nowhere near significant coverage. Those links do not constitute evidence of ]
