[edit] Status of this article

I was on the brink of bringing this to articles for deletion then thought we may-as-well try to sort things out here first. My main problem with the article is that it is little more than a blow-by-blow account of their participation in each series of the Race - which is plainly unencyclopaedic. There is little biographical information here that is a) not on The Amazing Race 5 contestants (in fact, much of the biographical stuff is plain copy & paste from that article) or b) not suitable to merge into that article.

If this article doesn't get improved and if these points aren't able to be resolved, I will definitely be taking this to AFD. I have added in the references from the Contestants article and removed "point of view" material and "original research", but there is still a long way to go.

Please note that a similar article, Derek and Drew Riker, has already been deleted recently. -- PageantUpdatertalk | contribs | esperanza 21:12, 27 February 2007 (UTC)

  • isn't that what a prod is for? --evrik (talk) 22:25, 27 February 2007 (UTC)
  • There is no point prodding this article, as I would expect it to be removed in a flash. -- PageantUpdatertalk | contribs | esperanza 23:01, 27 February 2007 (UTC)
  • It just got prod'ed. --evrik (talk) 22:18, 28 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Removal of prod

I believe they are notable, despite Ian's claim of being non-notable. Anyone going to AFD this one? --evrik (talk) 22:20, 28 February 2007 (UTC)
