The result was delete, we don't keep around copyvios (it's from [1]) in the hope that someone would edit them at some point in the future. If you want an article about him, write one, don't copy an eulogy (or anything else for that matter). - Bobet 13:05, 27 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Ricky Gibson

Looks like a copy/paste obituary. An unencyclopedic mess. StuffOfInterest 22:16, 21 September 2006 (UTC)

• Delete but without prejudice. The subject seems to be a notable wrestler, as the first page of "Ricky Gibson"+wrestling Google results indicate. ... discospinster _talk 23:42, 21 September 2006 (UTC)
• Delete Unencyclopaedic, more of a eulogy from a personal friend Gillean666 00:50, 22 September 2006 (UTC)
• Delete, Micheal Hayes made that eulogy, time to stick it to WWE for closing off Youtube videos. Unencycopedic —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Dr. R.K.Z (talk • contribs) .
• Delete, seems to be an advertisement for a personal friend. Wencer 01:42, 22 September 2006 (UTC)
• Delete, This is just a cut and paste directly from wwe.com, Ricky Gibson was a great Wrestler, but if someone is going to do an article don't just cut and paste from another website. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Ozscouser (talk • contribs) . - first edit
• Keep, HOWEVER, however this badly needs a re-write. Subject is notable, and really did die. mikemoto 10:18, 22 September 2006 (UTC)
• Delete, Very unprofessional, has no place here. baysidebrunette - first edit

• Delete, Nice Eulogy from P.S. Hayes, but clearly not encyclopedic. Dark Avatar
• Keep, The guy is notable. Why not edit it? OsFan 01:06, 24 September 2006 (UTC)
• Keep, but make it more suitable for this site! —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 82.39.156.37 (talk • contribs) .
• Keep, Keep it keep it keep it, keep the entry and edit the content so it is encyclopedic. Sorry for being honest, but the only reason people are saying delete is because they probably don't think anything pro-wrestling should be included in "their" wikipedia. Just another reason I say this site is full of wiki-nazi's. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 66.41.36.194 (talk • contribs) .
