• Keep. I will state, in defense of the article, that the measure of some does not always match the measure of others thus creating the dispute. The article was not created due to vanity, but due to notability throughout the independent professional wrestling circuit in the past seven years. If I can be cited for lack of notability, I could cite a thousand articles for my own measure of note and lack of knowledge. Then again, we come to Wikipedia to learn about things which we haven't the knowledge or we wish to learn. As a colleague of many wrestlers listed on this site, worker of many shows, and center of much controversy throughout my career, I e-mailed Wikipedia on this subject. Also, with neutrality shown in the article, there is no glorification nor burying of said subject. Not everything on this site is recognized by the world before placement or publication. As long as this site is broad in its vision, I have that right to create my own little footnote in history... or perhaps you could tell the thousands of people for which I performed that I never existed. -Ian Walsh Ethan_de_Sade@excite.com

• Delete. Vanity. I assure you, Mr. Walsh, not being listed in the Wikipedia will not erase your existence from the planet. Contrary to what you state, YES a subject must be recognized by the world before placement or publication in Wikipedia. This isn't a phonebook. 70.60.152.14 15:36, 9 April 2006 (UTC)
