Found this place on Fark, and then TFP pretty much replaced Fark for me. Haven't been there in months. But I check in here nearly each time I'm on the internet.

Thanks to all that made this possible.

ive been here for about 2.5 years now, so im middle aged in terms of TFP years. came onto TFP by accident through google, and have found this place to be a beacon of information and a great melting pot of many views and ideas. i love this place and log on everytime im online.

Well, the only way to fix this is to prove TFP's notability. I am not sure that this can be done. As internet forums go we are pretty small (598th by post count according to this site). The fact that TFP is the GREATEST forum on the internet would unfortunately not considered be considered neutral and objective by the wikipedians!
So unless we were mentioned in some print publication or something like that then I don't think that there is much that we can do to prevent this article from being deleted.

wikipedia has a criteria for articles about websites, and it's posted:

TFP has been a lot of things for me, and I'm pleased to be a member, but it doesn't warrant a wiki page.
