• Speedy Delete and salt -- continues to be recreated despite three Speedies already. -- Michael Scott Cuthbert (talk) 07:22, 1 March 2013 (UTC)

• Also suggest speedy deleting and salting Louie Griffin (Entrepreneur) created by the same editor (speedied once) who keeps removing the CSD tag in violation of policy. -- Michael Scott Cuthbert (talk) 07:33, 1 March 2013 (UTC)

• Speedy Deletion This article has been speedy deleted twice three times. The last time was about 30 minutes ago. The user should be blocked for repeatedly creating this article.--I am One of Many (talk) 07:25, 1 March 2013 (UTC)

• Delete No real claim to notability and no sustained coverage in any reliable sources. It's just a site for a bunch of people chatting with each other, to put it bluntly. Ritchie333 ^{(talk) (cont)} 09:45, 1 March 2013 (UTC)
• Delete per above. Agree with Ritchie333 on the sources issue below. –TCN7JM 11:58, 1 March 2013 (UTC)

• The article has been speedy deleted several times already, and to be honest you're lucky that it's even got as far as a deletion discussion. You need to find sources now and you should have found them before you create the article. That means sustained coverage in things like national newspapers, lots of them, and with the articles that talk about the site in substantial depth. If you can't find that, please don't re-create the article again as it will get protected so you cannot create it at all. Ritchie333 ^{(talk) (cont)} 09:48, 1 March 2013 (UTC)
• Comment I've added Louie Griffin (Entrepreneur) to this nomination, since the claim to notability is that he founded this website. Obviously if Hub Merseyside is deleted, Griffin's page should be deleted, too, so it makes sense to discuss both articles in this AfD. Ego White Tray (talk) 13:42, 1 March 2013 (UTC)

• I've struck Griffin's article because it's a clear case of a speedy delete. At best, Griffin should only be a redirect to Hub Merseyside. I've speedy deleted Hub Merseyside once before myself, so I'll let this discussion go a bit more before I speedy delete it myself. (Not that I'd object to any other admin who wanted to do it now.) —C.Fred (talk) 14:37, 1 March 2013 (UTC)
