Rest pause

 * – (View AfD) (View log)

Subject fails to meet the relevant notability guideline (has not received significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject.)  Quar te t  18:59, 23 May 2007 (UTC) 
 * Weak Delete - well, it HAS some sources, but they're so poorly formatted that there's no way to verify them, or even tell if they exist. The phrase "rest pause" gets zero GHits, outside Wikipedia, so I don't think the topic is notable.  --Haemo 21:56, 23 May 2007 (UTC)
 *  Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so that consensus may be reached  Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, W.marsh 18:47, 29 May 2007 (UTC)


 * Weak Keep - I found 61, 000 ghits for 'rest-pause training' with some detailed articles. If the books are real -- they should be reformatted -- it ought to be worth a keep.  one of the articles I saw: http://www.bodybuilding.com/fun/mahler27.htm  Sci girl 22:02, 29 May 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete And merge - this information should be incorporated into the Strength training article (along with other such unsourced/poorly sourced articles like German volume training. These are strength training techniques that can be summarized in a paragraph. Many of the sources that talk about rest pause are weak reliable sources, if that. --Yankees76 20:51, 30 May 2007 (UTC)
 * Merge to Strength training. I've certainly heard of such a thing, but it isn't that major  G1  gg  y  !  Review me! 23:24, 4 June 2007 (UTC)
 * Merge to Strength training. &mdash; Madman bum and angel (talk – desk) 22:30, 5 June 2007 (UTC)
 * Merge and redirect to strength training as recommended above, particularly to the Strength training section - it would fit right in with the other variations and styles there. Strangely it would also fit in at Weight training - sutle differences in tactics and hoped-for outcomes.  Anyway it is mentioned in cursory fashion at strength training, surprisingly without a "see also" link.   Note also the parallel 1RM article, may need similar treatment.  The current (rest-pause) article is simply too short a stub to be sustained independantly, but there is nothing really to add to improve it, other than some reference citations.  The book references list obviously need to be brought up to standards (ISBN, publishers, etc.) and incorporated ("chapter and verse") into the text.  The information is almost certainly verifiable with some simple googleyahoo searching, so while the information is probably encyclopedic, the article itself is not.  --T-dot ( Talk/ contribs ) 23:16, 5 June 2007 (UTC)
