NN website. 38,528, though it did get a bit of press (but all Microsoft things do). Rory096(block) 08:20, 26 April 2006 (UTC)
- Strong keep — most big Microsoft systems are probably notable. Alexa ranking is not the be all and end all, Wallop meets WP:WEB inclusion criteria in my opinion, with press references (such as this from Wired, this from CNN, this from VNUnet and this from the Wall Street Journal). It's only just (the press release was today, see news on Wallop.com) properly launched as a spin-off company, Wallop Inc. following some time as a project in Microsoft Research, so is only likely to become more notable and well-known as time goes by, following the previous beta testing a proper launch is due later in 2006. I would agree that the article needs significant expansion and more of an assertion of notability, however. └ UkPaolo/talk┐ 11:15, 26 April 2006 (UTC)
- Strong Keep. I've seen vaporware from NN bankrupt companies survive AfD, and here's a Microsoft venture written up on Wired? C'mon. The article is scanty, but that's grounds for cleanup, not AfD. RGTraynor 16:29, 26 April 2006 (UTC)
