Deprodded by user who said, "Don't speedy delete! Core.onion was one of the important entry points to the Tor .onion network. Let's investigate more about notability." Importance not asserted beyond vague terms such as "long standing". No secondary sourcing found, just passing mentions in books that only verify that it exists, but give no other info whatsoever.

  • Delete fails WP:WEBCRIT, specifically point one. Searches for "Core.onion" do not yield "multiple non-trivial published works" about the subject. Seattle (talk) 14:57, 16 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep. The reason there is not an abundance of search results is that this is a Tor website, not a clearnet website. --dionyziz (talk) 20:26, 16 November 2013 (UTC).[reply]
WP:ITSNOTABLE. You haven't said anything about why this particular site is notable. Taylor Trescott - my talk + my edits 20:44, 16 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete Not enough reliable sources that cover the site substantially. Taylor Trescott - my talk + my edits 20:44, 16 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep, good deal of results out there in searches of books and academic sources. — Cirt (talk) 23:29, 18 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete - I can't find any reliable sources (academic or otherwise) that discuss the subject in any detail. Fails WP:WEBCRIT. - MrX 16:40, 22 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]
