Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Shadowban
per above and nom. A little context for those uninvolved with the issue: Fark.com redesigned their website in late April of this year without consulting with their userbase or even prior announcement, which was a bit unusual. There was some uproar among its users, many claimed they had canceled their paid subscriptions and some users started a spin-off site. Almost since back then, members of that site have tried to get that site's domainname into the main Fark article which has lead to an extended edit war (please check http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Fark.com&action=history the article's history), full page protection, semi-protection less than 24 hours after it was unprotected and an extended discussion on the Talk:Fark.com|Fark.com talk page. Yesterday, there was even a thread on their site specifically announcing that the article was good to be edited by unregistered users again.This article is another, albeit somewhat clever, attempt at getting the domain name into the article. I strongly assume that this not so much out of a genuine desire to write an article about 'Shadowbanning' but the result of the realization that adding the domainname to the article by itself, as part of major sites like reddit and digg, as part of that article's 'Filters' section  (all of which can be easily verified by checking the history) and now as  a separate 'criticism' section will quickly result in a revert. Fact is, It's still a non-notable website and the article still lacks reliable sources for a very simple reason: there are none. The screen shots are  and this has been explained in detail by multiple users, myself included, again and again. (FD: I wasn't involved in the edit war in any way, shape or form but I am keeping an eye on the article since I requested its unprotection after about a month of full protection.) This attempt at self-promotion has taken up way too much time already that could have been spent doing something productive. Hence, my !vote
