→ Guess you lot fixed it up now! Seems interesting you pay attention when it's threatened and not when conversation is brought a month ago to improve it. But anyway guess it's fixed now. Good enough to keep now.Govvy (

Delete Makes a couple of (mostly unsourced) claims, but nothing that meets notability for athletes.

Keep Consensus has always been wrestling on one of the major televised wrestling shows was notable enough for a professional wrestler. LessThanClippers 21:24, 10 April 2008 (UTC)reply
Comment. What consensus is that? I don't see Wikipedia articles for many regular jobbers from WCW, WWE, TNA and so on. There needs to be more notability than just wrestling a few times for a major promotion.

Strong Keep: I have reliable print sources about this wrestler. This article is already on my list of articles to expand, and I will do the work of establishing notability. Incidentally, can anyone point me toward a citation template for newspapers (print)?

Keep, there are already some links in the article to stories about him from SLAM! Wrestling, a third party reliable source. The page is looking pretty poor right now, but I think expansion/more sourcing is possible. GCF, the template for a newspaper article can be found at
Wikipedia:Citation templates. It is about half way down the page.

Thanks. I added his real name, which was one of the reasons for nomination here, with a newspaper citation.

Keep I'm confident that more sources will appear and will be notable to include as an article. -- ThinkBlue (HitBLUE) 23:14, 10 April 2008 (UTC)reply

Keep. The external links actually look like they are decent references.

Keep. Seems to meet the notability threshold. --
