.50-140 Sharps

Cartridge has not been used in any notable application and since obsolete is not likely to become notable in the future, majority of article is semantically copied from .50-90 Sharps (prior to my edit), almost all data is unsourced, some statements seem contradictory.

 * Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so consensus may be reached.


 * Keep I favor a low bar for cartridges. Since we do have sources that have written about this cartridge, I think we could salvage this.  I'd say pretty much any non-wildcat cartridge type will probably be notable. Gigs (talk) 03:30, 18 March 2010 (UTC)
 * Delete I am all for keeping any widely used cartridges, but this one sounds like a non-notable niche round. Fails WP:N due to lack of significant coverage demonstrated in multiple reliable and independent sources. Edison (talk) 03:53, 18 March 2010 (UTC)


 * Keep Although I wish that WP would restrict itself to articles written for the general reader, that's not the reality here. If people want to know about this cartridge then why not have an article? Clearly it has been covered in relable sources. Also the article includes some history, not just the statisics on it. And I hate it when others use this argument but here goes: We are not paper. Kitfoxxe (talk) 13:07, 18 March 2010 (UTC)
