:{{c|disagree}} What a disappointment to see this page has been deleted.

:{{c|Yes}} Agree more. Above we see a plea from the owner. If you go to our ambiguosly named old sites (which we still haven't heard of) they redirect to here. If you search in google for "backpack.tf", you find our site. Wait... what? Well of course you do! If I search in google for "tf2 backpack" this comes up on page 2, after an available Android app. Not notable. Also, ''I don't need the tf2 wiki to get traffic''. That's not what this is for. Your feeling (as the owner) of notability is irrelevant, compared to three (4, whatever) pseudo-random tf2 players' opinions.

Deletion

The community site pages and navbox is not for listing your website to squeeze traffic. It is for documenting notable community websites. This means that the website has seen extensive use and has otherwise left a mark. Since this one has existed for about a month from what evidence I can find. I'm not seeing much purpose of listing it here. -- Lagg Backpack Stickybomb Launcher.png 10:47, 19 June 2012 (PDT)

Pictogram tick.png Yes Agree for all the stated reasons, notability/NPOV. User:Darkid/Sig 10:45, 19 June 2012 (PDT)
Pictogram plus.png Agree with this rZ 10:48, 19 June 2012 (PDT)
Pictogram plus.png Agree I've heard of this site, but it's not notable at all. Balladofwindfishes 11:01, 19 June 2012 (PDT)
