Black Saturday (1984)
Seems to be an inside term of wrestling fans. Also look for AfD on Black Friday, a game show "term". Only netted 134 hits on google with search of ("black saturday" 1984 wrestling). Burgwerworldz 21:15, 4 July 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep. The event itself is extremely notable within its context, even if the article name itself is not widely used. McPhail 23:02, 4 July 2006 (UTC)
 * Then keep it within the articles of the organizations and the television shows this effects, having a total cruft term has no place here. Burgwerworldz 23:03, 4 July 2006 (UTC)
 * The events of the article transcend three different corporations; recounting the event in three different articles would appear to be redundant. The term "Black Saturday" has been acknowledged by wrestling executives such as Ole Anderson. In addition, it has been described by journalists as "a pivotal point in the history of professional wrestling". It is not "cruft". McPhail 00:58, 5 July 2006 (UTC)


 * Weak Keep, Ghits show some significance in a stand-alone sense; it's conceivable people would look up the term expecting this particular manifestation of it. "Weak" because I hate how subgenres like wrestling, Star Trek, etc have an article for every little nuance, but that's just personal opinion. HumbleGod 23:10, 4 July 2006 (UTC)


 * Keep. Certainly a significant part of wrestling history, particularly in the 1980s. Maybe under a different name or with redirects relating to the incident. Normy  132  01:20, 5 July 2006 (UTC)


 * Irrelevant Delete I'd dispute the notability of this but the nominator has withdrawn so is a Speedy Keep MLA 09:27, 5 July 2006 (UTC)

I would like to withdraw this article for consideration --Burgwerworldz 03:39, 5 July 2006 (UTC)


 *  Another Irrelevant Strong delete and merge I don't think this deserves a stand alone article. Perhaps I might suggest that the creators consider staring a history section in the Professional wrestling article?--Nick Y. 00:52, 6 July 2006 (UTC)
 * Sounds good to me. Except rather than have a section on the PW article what about the history has its own article? Normy  132  04:11, 6 July 2006 (UTC)
 * Comment I think that sounds reasonable. It might be best for the author of this article (or someone else who cares to improve this area) advocate this move and explicitly accept deletion (with a quick recue of savable material by copying it into an appropriately named article such as "History of professional wrestling".--Nick Y. 15:56, 6 July 2006 (UTC)

KEEP gotta keep it. I wanted info on a reference  and  I found exactly what I was looking for. User: puremournin — Preceding unsigned comment added by 67.68.2.31 (talk • contribs)


 * Really, really weak delete - the circumstances make up a significant series of events in the history of modern professional wrestling, but the name is complete bullocks. Tough call.  --Jeffrey O. Gustafson - Shazaam! - &lt;*&gt; 05:48, 7 July 2006 (UTC)


 * Comment: I'm starting up a discussion about a proposed "history of professional wrestling" article which can be found here. Feel free to join in. Normy  132  07:23, 7 July 2006 (UTC)
