Like Articles for deletion/List of independent circuit, non-affiliated or retired professional wrestlers, a random list about tag teams in wrestling. We have categories. HHH Pedrigree (talk) 00:48, 31 March 2013 (UTC)
 * Delete as listcruft. Redundant to categories. J I P  &#124; Talk 06:27, 31 March 2013 (UTC)
 * See WP:CLNT. You don't delete a list because you prefer categories, or vice versa.   D r e a m Focus  10:15, 1 April 2013 (UTC)

 * Keep Meets all the requirements for a Wikipedia stand alone list. See WP:LIST and WP:CSC   D r e a m Focus  10:15, 1 April 2013 (UTC)
 * Keep Categories can't cover the many teams which existed, but weren't notable enough for their own article. These teams are worth mentioning somewhere, and this is the place. InedibleHulk (talk) 22:59, 1 April 2013 (UTC)
 * Delete- The article can't ever hope to be comprehensive due to its broad scope. Retired, independent, mainstream, international, major and minor tag teams all in one article? We're looking at 10000+ items and most of them are non-notable. In fact, the very nature of the list is trivial. Should we also have "List of female wrestlers", "List of Male wrestlers", "List of wrestling announce teams", "List of wrestling luchadors", "List of wrestling managers"... This feels more fitting for the pro wrestling wikia. It should stay off the encyclopedia. Feed  back  ☎ 06:32, 3 April 2013 (UTC)
 * Delete- Per Feedback.-- Dcheagle   &bull; talk &bull; contribs 23:27, 6 April 2013 (UTC)
 * Delete per Feedback. Just a silly list that opens a door for tons more equally silly lists. Categories work just fine and if a team isn't notable enough for an article, well, tough titty. Go to one of those wikia sites that has an article for every Jim, Mike and Tom that has ever stepped in a ring.Ribbon Salminen (talk) 23:33, 6 April 2013 (UTC)
 * Keep, but limit to notable teams and ruthlessly trim back to only those teams that have articles as a team. The argument that the list will become too long is a poor one, and completely void if my suggestion of notability is followed.  It is not too long right now and we have many longer lists on much less focused topics - List of Germans for instance.  Spinning  Spark  14:51, 7 April 2013 (UTC)
