[edit] Cabramatta black dragons

Cabramatta black dragons (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs) – (View log)

Anon-removed Prod. I can't find any sources (reliable or otherwise) for a gang of this name, which is perhaps not surprising when dealing with street gangs in general. Obviously there are notable street gangs, but there's nothing that seems to demonstrate that this particular one is. BigHaz - Schreit mich an 12:08, 28 March 2007 (UTC)

  • Delete If you're making a PR page for a gang, it's not notable.Cantras 15:41, 28 March 2007 (UTC)
  • Keep for now; if you look at the article 5T, there are some references there that mention the Black Dragons. This is a new article, we should perhaps wait until the authors have finished work on the article before deciding that it has insufficient notability and sources. I'm at least convinced that it isn't a hoax, and that it is a real gang that has attracted the attention of the police and the community. Brianyoumans 21:09, 28 March 2007 (UTC)
    • That is to say that of the externally-linked websites (the only thing I can access right at the moment), there's a grand total of one Sydney Morning Herald article saying that "Police are aware of another gang calling itself 'Black Dragon'". Nothing much more about what this particular gang does, and I doubt that's even a non-trivial mention. BigHaz - Schreit mich an 23:31, 28 March 2007 (UTC)
  • Delete. No Google News Archives for "Cabramatta black dragons" see [1] nor does it currently have any articles on them. ABBSCO's Australia New Zealand database has nothing either. The SMH article that mentions them only contains a passing reference. The photos of the gang markings are pretty dreadful as well. Capitalistroadster 03:28, 29 March 2007 (UTC)

  • Delete as per Cantras. --Mattinbgn/ talk 03:44, 29 March 2007 (UTC)
  • Delete as unsourced and because Wikipedia is not a hosting provider of trophy pages. Also delete all of the photos by Special:Contributions/Count45. John Vandenberg 10:50, 29 March 2007 (UTC)
