Deletion of List of top 100 web sites in the United Kingdom

Comment: I think it's an encyclopedic topic and I don't think this list is a #MIRROR|mirror or #DIR|directory, although this data would change every month. There are other references for this kind of thing like Compete, ComScore, Hitwise, Nielsen//NetRatings, Netcraft, Ranking, WebpageFingerprint, and Quantcast &mdash; although I don't know how much of that data is freely viewable. I don't know if Alexa has a copyright on the information in this list, but the Alexa http://www.alexa.com/site/help/terms terms of use has a section called "Intellectual Property and Copyright Infringement Notice" that may apply to this article (the "arrangement" part in particular). |I am not a laywer however

Comment: The original editor is starting to pull data from multiple sources and putting it together into one table. IMHO, this is heading towards one of Wikipedia's taboos - |no original research. |By gathering unlike data from multiple resources and combining the data within the Wikipedia article, the resulting table becomes unique, i.e. original research. If someone did the combining work outside of Wikipedia and Wikipedia references it as a source, then that would be okay. But it does not look like the progression of this article is heading in that direction. Wikipedia should not be used for conducting research on a subject that hasn't been explored elsewhere
