Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Heath Slater and Justin Gabriel


 * The following discussion is an archived debate of the proposed deletion of the article below. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page (such as the article's talk page or in a deletion review).  No further edits should be made to this page.

The result was no consensus to delete. It seems that almost everyone is in agreement that the content we have on this team here and in other articles needs to be merged, however there is no consensus as to which direction it should be merged in (i.e. to or from this article). That is a question best suited to a merge discussion on a relevant article or project talk page. Thryduulf (talk) 10:08, 14 April 2013 (UTC)

Heath Slater and Justin Gabriel

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

All of the pertinent information is already in The Corre, in The Nexus (professional wrestling), in Heath Slater and in Justin Gabriel. The existence of this article is a perfect example of unnecessary cruft as well as redundant content forking. Feed back  ☎ 01:54, 27 March 2013 (UTC)  Feed  back  ☎ 01:54, 27 March 2013 (UTC)


 * Delete- Because these two were never much of a tag team outside of those two large factions I don't see much of a reason for them to get a separate article.LordMaldad2000 (talk) 04:43, 27 March 2013 (UTC)

 * Keep - Sufficient coverage to establish notability. No reason to delete a well-sourced article about a team that won the top championship three times. GaryColemanFan (talk) 01:35, 28 March 2013 (UTC)
 * No reason? This is content forking at it's finest. Every single tidbit of important coverage in this article is already stated in four different articles. I'm not saying the coverage in this article isn't noteworthy, I'm saying it's just not notable for a 4th entry in the encyclopedia. The coverage at the other 4 articles is sufficient.

 * delete per feedback. 4 articles. They do nothing notable outside corre or nexus.--HHH Pedrigree (talk) 12:54, 28 March 2013 (UTC)
 * Keep Sources look good, and three-time tag champs is a pretty notable achievement, even if they're not exactly Demolition. To avoid redundancy, delete repeated info from the other articles instead and Wikilink here. They're probably too wordy, anyway. InedibleHulk (talk) 21:06, 2 April 2013 (UTC)
 * Most info is repeated, which is my original point. If their career post-Corre had spanned more than 3 episodes, then there would be a major section on that part of their tag team career with hatnotes to Nexus (professional wrestling) and The Corre for the other parts. But the tag team's notability spans from their time in both stables and all the noteworthy information is already there. Feed  back  ☎ 23:11, 2 April 2013 (UTC)
 * The way I see it, this team is more notable than The Corre, and gave the stable the rub, not the other way around. Like Edge and Christian did for The Brood, sort of. Whatever is mentioned of them in those articles belongs only here instead. InedibleHulk (talk) 20:44, 4 April 2013 (UTC)


 * Keep They were tag team champions three times in the biggest wrestling promotion in the world and wrestled in more high profile matches then the other recent tag team AfDs.  STATic  message me!  04:16, 3 April 2013 (UTC)
 * With the risk of sounding like a broken record, we are not arguing about whether the subject is notable enough to have inclusion in the encyclopedia. It definitely deserves to be on the encyclopedia, but all of this information is already in 4 different articles. Your keep reasoning makes it sound as if we're trying to do away with the subject completely. I would consider this a "merge" proposal, if it wasn't for the fact that all this information is in the articles already.  Feed  back  ☎ 04:31, 3 April 2013 (UTC)


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

 * Delete - and merge with The Corre; this tag team history is brief and those of the other Nexus/Corre members can all be explained in a background section. -- T ru  c o  503 14:18, 5 April 2013 (UTC)
