With an Alexa rank of ~300,000 and Overture inventory count of only 30 this site does not appear to arise to Wikipedia's standards of notability. From other edits by user, it appears to also be self promotional. Lotsofissues 01:38, 8 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete. Agree that other edits make this highly suspicious. Also, the website itself doesn't seem very popular. It didn't work in Firefox, but after visiting in IE, the forum appears to have something like 18 members. Aerion//talk 06:18, 8 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete, not notable, website promo. Megan1967 08:37, 8 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete website promotion. Can anyone actually search the page? All I get is a logo and some error and deadlinks. Mgm|(talk) 09:57, May 8, 2005 (UTC)

See, I can copy too. hydnjo talk 00:31, 9 May 2005 (UTC)[reply] - Do not delete. Did anyone look at the site? they don't just copy songs, the forum appears to be broken (not unpopular with only 18 members), I didn't have any problem searching, and they've been online since 94 which alone makes them notable. 2:18, 10 May 2005 (UTC)
- Delete. Not every web site deserves an entry. Being around for 11 years doesn't make them notable. They need to have more traffic, make the news, be discussed or linked on other web sites, or otherwise notabilize themselves before we should give them space. ---Isaac R 22:38, 11 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]

- Delete. "Rareexception.com has been referenced countless times in university publications and received recognition from royalty, children, professors, and students." Wow. --Jeffrey O. Gustafson 23:43, 12 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]
