[edit] Andre The Giant (DVD)

Andre The Giant (DVD) (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs) – (View log)

nn DVD, just a compilation of matches with Andre. WP is not a directory or indiscriminate source of info. See similar reasoning on WWE DVDs in the afd for Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Jake "The Snake" Roberts: Pick Your Poison Biggspowd 16:23, 29 April 2007 (UTC)

• Redirect to André the Giant or André the Giant#DVDs. A plausible search term. meshach 16:53, 29 April 2007 (UTC)
• Two options: Either keep (as a legitimate DVD chronicling the top matches in the career of one of professional wrestling's most famous stars) or redirect/merge per Meshach, and include a graf or two in the main Andre the Giant article. [[Briguy52748 19:16, 29 April 2007 (UTC)]]
• Delete I suggest delete and just use {{cite video}} to cite it on Andre's article. Govvy 12:12, 1 May 2007 (UTC)

• Redirect to André the Giant. It wasn't even a bio DVD, it was just a DVD (originally VHS) release of his early matches. TJ Spyke 02:43, 5 May 2007 (UTC)
• Keep. The DVD is distinct from the person. Why should they be the same article? A distinct compilation deserves an article. Oren0 08:04, 5 May 2007 (UTC)
• Redirect to Andre's article. Nothing suggests that a separate article is required to cover this material, and nothing "deserves" an article. Otto4711 15:52, 5 May 2007 (UTC)
• Redirect to the main article. JodyB _talk 18:50, 5 May 2007 (UTC)
• Redirect per nom. --Infrangible 01:41, 6 May 2007 (UTC)
• Merge details into main article. Surely it's more useful to have the details there instead of in a separate article, and the main article is not too long to need sub-articles split out. Smalljim 16:12, 8 May 2007 (UTC)
• Merge I think the information in this article should be added to Andre's article. Kris 01:59, 10 May 2007 (UTC)
