Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Sal Rinauro

The following discussion is an archived debate of the proposed deletion of the article below. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page (such as the article's talk page or in a deletion review). No further edits should be made to this page.

The result was NO CONSENSUS TO DELETE. There are (granted, slim) bio notes here and here as well as here. As to the Accelerators disclaimer of reliability cited by [[User:One Night In Hackney, this seems more a pro forma legal disclaimer rather than an actual admission of unreliability; the home page states "...this page now is one of the top wrestling information sites on the Internet". The truth is probably somewhere in the middle but there's no reason to completely disregard material on the site. Yes the Delete arguments are well taken but the Delete commentors just do not provide the "Phoenix Fury Leg Drop" killer finishing move. Herostratus 04:48, 22 May 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Sal Rinauro

Sal Rinauro (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs) – (View log)

Prod contested without improvement. Non notable wreslter, no evidence of multiple independent non trivial reliable sources, fails WP:BIO One Night In Hackney₃₀₃ 18:21, 14 May 2007 (UTC)

• Weak delete - isn't ROH considered to be upper-level indy these days? Even so, his ring name gets just over 700 hits, which is less than one random local worker I checked gets - if he breaks into the big companies, then maybe an article will be merited. Tony Fox (arf!) 20:05, 14 May 2007 (UTC)

• Weak Keep The article is unsourced, though the article provides links to two other websites that could be sources. Additionally, he has won the tag team title in both of the two biggest independent promotions in the US (the 3rd and 4th largest US wrestling promotions). Theophilus75 21:01, 14 May 2007 (UTC)

• Comment The links are to his own website and a website created by a wrestling fan that states I am not guaranteeing that everything on this page is accurate, please provide multiple independent non trivial reliable sources. One Night In Hackney₃₀₃ 04:25, 15 May 2007 (UTC)

• Keep He is a more then notable indy worker, appearing on several ROH DVDs. Kris 16:19, 16 May 2007 (UTC)

• Comment Please provide evidence of meeting WP:BIO then, specifically multiple independent non-trivial sources. One Night In Hackney₃₀₃ 16:30, 16 May 2007 (UTC)

• Neutral He's done more than some and appeared all over the place as his title history shows. However he has never (to the best of my knowledge) been booked as anything other than a mid-carder in small territories and a jobber-to-the-stars in RoH. There's no way of providing a lot of sources as Rinauro is kinda unremarkable. ŞůṜīΣĻ¹98¹^Speak 19:51, 18 May 2007 (UTC)
• Delete. Are wrestlers considered athletes or entertainers under BIO? Either way, I don't see any decent sources or other compelling argument to keep. Plus, that picture alone is almost enough to make me support deletion.--Kubigula (talk) 22:01, 21 May 2007 (UTC)
