Random list of "start pages" for internet browsers. No indication of any notability. Only references are to things like alexa that do not provide significant coverage. noq (talk) 22:29, 13 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]

• Comment -- @Noq: Thank you for taking the time to question the notability of the List of start page services. I, however, do not share your opinion regarding deletion. There is no Wikipedia guideline requiring all entries in a list to be notable (WP:LISTCOMPANY) and it contains some rather notable examples, to which this article provides a useful context. The list is based on that provided by iGoogleAlternatives.info. Alexa rank provides a useful indication (though not proof) of notability. Furthermore, there seems to be no guideline against these sorts of lists, which provides a useful and objective context to the Start page article.

• Delete -- OR with unclear criteria for inclusion. Sources are all primary. This topic has not been a subject of inquiry by secondary sources and therefore lacks notability. K.e.coffman (talk) 23:09, 27 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]
