G.Q. Gallo
Person does not appear to meet notability requirements. ↪Lakes (Talk) 16:41, 25 October 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete, no claims to notability that I can recognise as such, no indication of meeting WP:BIO. Sandstein 20:33, 25 October 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep per WP:BIO. He has won the AWA World Tag Team Championship twice. While the AWA is still not around(it folded into the WWE). I would say it would put him under people "that have played in a professional league".  Mitaphane talk 20:46, 25 October 2006 (UTC)
 * The AWA didn't fold into the WWE, it went out of business on its own. The WWE simply bought the old AWA tape library. The current AWA that this wrestler was a tag champion for is being run by the Gagne family and is little more than a small independant with ties to a couple of big time Japanese promotions.

 * Comment: I'm just going by the information in AWA's own article. Perhaps it should be updated then. —Mitaphane talk 18:49, 26 October 2006 (UTC)
 * The article is fine overall, AWA Superstars of Wrestling is mentioned and what is there is factual, but the number of promotions linked to the current AWA is small (twenty in total world-wide) with most running shows within a very small area. ZERO-ONE MAX in Japan is the only one of any mention. The current AWA Tag-Team title and the historic one aren't really the same either, even though their histories are linked. Somebody winning that title isn't really playing in a professional league. If that was the case then where are all the articles for NWA Tag-Team Champions from that organization's period in the wilderness. Knuckles Nelson for instance, and if you say "Who?" then I hope you see my point. Stephen Day 21:44, 26 October 2006 (UTC)


 * Delete not notable enough. Move to a wrestling wiki.   James   Duggan  22:42, 25 October 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete Non-notable idependant wrestler. Stephen Day 00:15, 26 October 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep - this wrestler has worked alongside names that are now just making it in ECW etc. His current promotion has supplied 7 workers in recent years to WWE and, in very short order, I suspect Gallo will get the call up too. Maybe Wikpedia can take some credit for scouting notables early —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 202.65.53.89 (talk • contribs) 2006-10-26T22:46:50.
 * Comment: Wikipedia is not a crystal ball. ↪Lakes (Talk) 22:17, 29 October 2006 (UTC)


 * Keep He meets the bare minimum of notability in regards to a Indy Wrestler.  Has managed to hold a few regional titles and recieved attention from WikiProject_Professional_wrestling in order to clean it up a bit.   As a part of our project I believe it should be put on our to do list to see if we can clean the article up before it is listed for deletion —The preceding unsigned comment was added by NegroSuave (talk • contribs) 2006-10-27T17:26:37.
 * Comment: He doesn't meet notability requirements in regards to being an indy wrestler, and as such it doesn't matter if the article could be cleaned up, since it just should not exist. ↪Lakes (Talk) 22:17, 29 October 2006 (UTC)


 * Delete Not notable enough. Hasn't wrestled in any well known indy feds.  Even the titles he's held aren't that notable.   James   Duggan  01:27, 31 October 2006 (UTC)
