Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Fashion Net
clearly fails the |notability criteria I've done an extensive search (also in languages other than English) and have access to the HighBeam archives, and have found nothing better than what is already there—brief mentions in lists of fashion sites in articles from 1995 and 2002. There is nothing in reliable sources devoted to or significantly covering this website. The only claim to fame for Fashion Net is that it was allegedly the first internet fashion site referenced to the book https://books.google.com/books?id=CON2O1zy3rAC&pg=PA9 ''Fashion Technology: Today and Tomorrow'', a "textbook" published in India. If you look at the book (first published in '''2007'''), you will find large verbatim chunks from the https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Fashion&oldid=79916356 October '''2006''' version of Fashion, including the verbatim assertion "Fashion made its debut on the world wide web in January 1995 with the launch of Fashion Net by Stig Harder in Paris, France." (That sentence was added by a COI editor in June 2006 with https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Fashion&diff=prev&oldid=60804628 this edit.) So, we don't even have a reliable source for the one claim that ''might'' confer notability in the absence of significant coverage. The other two articles related to this website (Stig Harder, the founder of Fashion Net, and Lumière (magazine), also launched by Harder) are also at AfD
