James Mason (wrestler)

 * – ( View AfD View log | edits since nomination)

Despite the length of this Wikipedia article, apart from a claim to have been interviewed for a 1990s book, this wrestler seems completely unnoticed by the media. The article is entirely cited to a wrestling stats website. I can't find any coverage online, apart from an occasional mention in relation to an event. Wikipedia isn't the place for fan pages, time for this article to go IMO. Sionk (talk) 12:01, 12 September 2023 (UTC) Please add new comments below this notice.

 * Comment I will do a research, maybe I can find something. The issue is that British wrestling has been very popular in the last years, so many wrestlers get articles. Sad part, reliable sources doesn't cover them, so probably, many of them will have their articles deleted. --HHH Pedrigree (talk) 08:29, 13 September 2023 (UTC)
 * There's certainly an unhelpful and misplaced level of enthusiasm to write articles on Wikipedia, but that's not matched by any strong evidence of being popular, outside of niche websites. Sionk (talk) 11:00, 13 September 2023 (UTC)
 *  Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.


 * Delete The references in the article are, as per the sources section of WP:PW, not reliable. A Google search turns up various social media hits and non-independant sources.  If the references were removed, then there would be none left.  Thereby the article doesn't even pass even GNG.     ArcAngel    (talk) 06:01, 20 September 2023 (UTC)
 * Delete: Only hits on people with similar names, nothing found for this wrestler. Sourcing used in the article is mostly red, orange or not identified per sourcebot, so not helpful. Oaktree b (talk) 13:09, 20 September 2023 (UTC)
