[edit] Significance of Powerlifting USA

I note that an editor has tagged the new article Powerlifting USA for importance. Given that I started the articles for Hardgainer and Milo, and those were both questioned (and passed the test), I thought that fans of these pages might want to weigh in on whether they consider Powerlifting USA important enough.

[edit] Notability

In response to this article being tagged for importance by User:FRCP11...

As I posted on the discussion page for Hardgainer, Wikipedia:Importance that has been quoted already on discussions for a couple of weight-training AfD discussions, and seems relevant here:

An article is "important" enough to be included in Wikipedia if any one of the following is true:

1. There is evidence that a reasonable number of people are, were or might be concurrently interested in the subject (eg. it is at least well-known in a community).

It then continues:

If an article is "important" according to the above then there's no reason to delete it on the basis of it being:

1. of insufficient importance, fame or relevance, or

2. currently small or a stub, or

3. obscure. (Detailed obscure topics hurt no-one because it's hard to find them by accident, and Wikipedia isn't paper.)

Milo has been publishing now for about 13 years, so I think this demonstrates significant interest in the weight-training community.

However, I would certainly agree that the article could use some expansion. Dsreyn 14:00, 1 June 2006 (UTC)
