- Delete per WP:TNT It took some digging around, but there is apparently some rather significant coverage on this "Internet" thing from books, newspapers and other print sources. Unfortunately, this article is so overly reliant on its own sources that I think it would just be easier to delete it and rewrite it from scratch. Spirit of Eagle ( talk) 00:54, 1 April 2015 (UTC)

- Weak keep but merge with Google, Wikipedia, Amazon.com et al. We don't have articles for specific pages in books, so why should we have articles on specific pages on the Internet? Liam987 (talk) 01:12, 1 April 2015 (UTC)

- A11 being "Obviously invented"? Can't argue with that, it was indisputably invented. (By
Al Gore or
Tim Berners Lee, depending on who you believe).

- Delete Can't find a good source, all print sources seem to make use of this internet to some extent, haven't been able to find a single writer that covers it that doesn't use it for communication.
