• Delete per nom. if this article is deleted, i think the articles for wrestlers should also be deleted. --Ageo020 04:06, 26 July 2006 (UTC)
• Delete advertising --Xrblsnggt 04:16, 26 July 2006 (UTC)
  • Comment: Promotion is professional. Does this mean that the other promotions (i.e. PCW Australia and the Australian Wrestling Federation) will have to be deleted as well? Normy132 08:10, 26 July 2006 (UTC)
    • I, admittedly, know nothing whatsoever about wrestling. As a general rule, IMO, professional and semi-pro sports leagues (NFL, AFL, AF2, and the analagous organizations in other sports) are notable. The ad agency for the Washington Redskins is not. My understanding from looking at this article is that it is more like the ad agency for the Washington Redskins. Am I incorrect? I saw the PCW article and assumed it was the pro or semi-pro league itself and thus generally accepted as notable. I don't know anything about it either way and am just going off of what the article said it was and g-hits. BigDT 13:22, 26 July 2006 (UTC)
• Comment: The key to the deletion of this article is whether or not it is actually gone for good after the loss of the Tattersalls sponsorship. Debating as to whether or not this promotion is professional is privy to opening a rather large can of worms in relation to the other promotions in this country (as previously mentioned - and not just PCW and AWF either). If this article is deleted it must be for a specific reason exclusive to this article.
  • Well in that case I think we should wait until if the death of the promotion is decisive before we go deleting it. Normy132 10:52, 30 July 2006 (UTC)
• Delete: The promotion is not as important as WWE and TNA, so it shouldn't stay. Early 15:19, 31 July 2006 (UTC)
  • That is a slap in the face to Australian wrestling, Early. I strongly recommend you go and see a PWA or NAW show (if you live in Melbourne) before making such rash judgments.
