I can't find anything to establish its notability Boleyn (talk) 05:44, 20 September 2016 (UTC)


 * Speedy keep premise of nomination is false; cartridge was reviewed in full-length articles in numerous reliable-source firearm publications:
 * https://www.americanrifleman.org/articles/2011/4/4/wilson-combat-introduces-762x40-wt-cartridge/ (American Rifleman)
 * http://www.outdoorlife.com/blogs/gun-shots/2011/04/wilson-tactical-762x40-another-new-ar-cartridge (Outdoor Life)
 * http://www.rifleshootermag.com/rifles/ar-15/review-wilson-combat-7-62x40/ (a publication of Guns & Ammo)
 * https://www.shootingillustrated.com/articles/2011/11/10/762-40-wt/ (a publication of National Rifle Association)
 * Obscure firearm cartridges aren't the most inherently meaty topics but this obviously passes the general notability guideline. TiC (talk) 15:19, 20 September 2016 (UTC)
 * The first two sources you list appear to be press releases or copies of material from a manufacturer. The third appears to be a review of a firearm. The fourth is a review of the cartridge, but is one enough? Felsic2 (talk) 15:23, 21 September 2016 (UTC)


 * Speedy keepThis is an absurd nomination. The round is discussed in several books, on numerous forums and it is still in production. Just because its not used in a video game or mentioned on the Simpsons does not mean that its not notable.--Mike - Μολὼν λαβέ 13:50, 22 September 2016 (UTC)
 * Being in production doesn't make something notable. Being discused in forums doesn't either, for WP purposes. Neither does being listed in a book that catalogs every single cartridge ever made. The standard for notability is at WP:N. Felsic2 (talk) 15:46, 23 September 2016 (UTC)

 * KEEP. The article has 14 references. More than enough to establish notability.--RAF910 (talk) 20:13, 23 September 2016 (UTC)
 * Speedy keep. Valid article based on topic that is covered in many reliable sources.  Premise to delete article is ill-founded.  Miguel Escopeta (talk) 20:50, 23 September 2016 (UTC)
