Noah Lott

 * – ( View AfD View log  •  )

I am under the impression that this does not meet WP:BIO or WP:ATHLETE standards. Regent of the Seatopians (talk) 22:46, 10 July 2010 (UTC)
 * Article author here. Noah Lott has wrestled professionally for numerous wrestling promotions, including WWE. Generally, he's at least as notable as several other people in the relevant category. What specific requirements or standards does the article not meet? Lightforce (talk) 22:56, 10 July 2010 (UTC)
 * According to the article, he wrestled in two WWE matches that took place prior to a televised taping. He is not in the WWE roster. Outside of a single profile in a Michigan newspaper (a local boy makes good piece), there is no major media coverage of him as a wrestler. Regent of the Seatopians (talk) 23:35, 10 July 2010 (UTC)
 * I don't know a lot about him. Mandsford 14:53, 11 July 2010 (UTC)

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


 * Weak keep for lack of a WP:NSPORT for Pro Wrestling, I'm going to say that the fact that he was even brought in for a dark match by the WWE means he is a somewhat highly regarded wrestler. The article also helps. -Drdisque (talk) 05:06, 18 July 2010 (UTC)
 * Delete Notability not established. Is not employed by WWE, and having a couple of dark matches doesn't fulfill the guidelines of WP:ATHLETE. Mad Dog Dunstan (talk) 13:35, 18 July 2010 (UTC)
 * Delete - had a tryout, do we have articles on everyone that tries out for an NFL team but does not make it? fails notability.  MPJ  -DK 19:12, 18 July 2010 (UTC)
 * Delete Unsourced claims made. Borders on WP:VAIN although not blatant. AinslieL (talk) 10:32, 19 July 2010 (UTC)
 * Delete - I don't think we can make an argument that this person satisfies WP:ATHLETE, thus I default to WP:ANYBIO. The only news coverage I can find - and correct me if I'm wrong - is the Advance article. Advance Newspapers are local, almost neighborhood-level publications. I can't find any additional coverage via a Google search, thus I believe this person fails ANYBIO. P. D. Cook  Talk to me! 14:38, 20 July 2010 (UTC)
 * Keep - As I said above, the subject is at least as notable as a number of other people in the relevant category. Also, the article is a work in progress. I'm currently working on finding and adding additional references for existing information, and new sourced information. If the article has a promotional tone, that's easily remedied without a deletion. Lightforce (talk) 09:33, 21 July 2010 (UTC)
 * Comment, please see WP:OTHERCRAPEXISTS. Nikki  ♥  311   19:08, 22 July 2010 (UTC)
 * Delete, fails WP:GNG and WP:ATHLETE. Nikki  ♥  311   19:10, 22 July 2010 (UTC)
 * Delete - per Nikki. The article author needs to realise that he's on a losing battle here. I already looked - not a reliable third party source in sight that proves notability. Additionally, the author hasn't edited the article since July 11.  !! Just a Punk !!  23:51, 22 July 2010 (UTC)
 * Delete Why do I smell a WP:COI issue here with the article's creator? RICK ME DOODLE   YOU DOODLE  03:19, 23 July 2010 (UTC)
