Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/List of fictional online services (2nd nomination)
Should've been deleted last time as #DIR|Wikipedia articles are not directories of loosely associated topics nor are they #LINK|repositories of internal or external links . A list of every time someone mentions a phony website or fake email address, even one that's used by the show or movie for promotional purposes, is not encyclopedic. An article on the specific fiction is free to include fictional websites that are used within the fiction and if the site is |notable within the fiction then an article on the specific site is reasonable. An article on the use of the internet for marketing would no doubt benefit from a sourced discussion of the phenomenon. But a list of every fictional website ever? Unencyclopedic, unmaintainable, unnecessary, unwarranted
