Ric Flair and The Four Horsemen

 * – (View AfD) (View log)

Nothing more than a list of matches, as are all the other DVDs on this list. Darrenhusted 18:39, 4 August 2007 (UTC)
 * Note: This debate has been included in the list of Wrestling-related deletions.

I am also nominating the following related pages because most are nothing more than match or chapter lists:



Any information on these pages can be put on to the subject's page or already is. Darrenhusted 18:49, 4 August 2007 (UTC)
 * Comment Once the "AFD process" has started don't slap more articles on it, you've done it before added in articles after people have started to vote. Make out the full list of articles you want to AFD and put them on when you create the original AFD, then tag the articles with the AFD tag instead. Otherwise people vote, then you add more and it's implied that they voted for those as well. MPJ-DK 19:10, 4 August 2007 (UTC)
 * I was checking two categories (Professional wrestling direct-to-video films and WWE Home Video) at the same time, and the final four on the list were not in the WWE Home Video category, as they should have been. In my defence MPJ-DK, if I have added articles to a group AfD (as I did with List of WWE Divas and PCW) I have always contacted the editors to make sure that they wanted to keep their vote the same.

 * Alright fair enough, sorry if I came off a bit gruff there MPJ-DK 22:06, 4 August 2007 (UTC)
 * Not a problem. Darrenhusted 22:11, 4 August 2007 (UTC)


 * Delete all I remember a discussion on WP:PW about this that they should forward to the main article and have a "media" section, but since that doesn't seem to be happening maybe deleting them all will get the message across? MPJ-DK 22:06, 4 August 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete all. Individual DVD's which are simply recordings of matches are not notable on their own. Realkyhick 22:08, 4 August 2007 (UTC)
 * Merge all to the respective wrestler article, they are only notable for those articles.--JForget 23:01, 4 August 2007 (UTC)
 * A combination of Merge all information into respective wrestler pages, Create a section on the main WWE page for "Media" as somewhere for all this crap to go (or even as far as its own page), and Delete all of these articles to hell. Its been said once and it shall be said again - enough with the DVDs! --SteelersFan UK06 02:02, 5 August 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete All, I don't really see a point in merging anything. Articles for wrestling DVDs are usually pointless (I can think of maybe one exception, and it isn't even listed here). A one sentence mention on a wrestler's page acknowledging the existence of a DVD is more than adequate enough. Nikki311 04:32, 5 August 2007 (UTC)
 * Comment if I'm not mistaken it was agreed a while back to merge the text part into the various main articles, drop the match listing and then have the DVD page redirect to the main page - but nothing ever came of the discussion. I'd support it if that became the outcome, that we could get a lock on editing the DVD titles so the redirects stay in place and we can keep an eye on the main articles for crufty list addition. MPJ-DK 04:35, 5 August 2007 (UTC)
 * Comment My above comment did not mean any further mergery than a sentence acknowledging the existence of a DVD on a wrestler's page. I think that MPJ-DK's above suggestion on what to do in future would be a very, VERY good suggestion. Maybe a mention over at WP:PW? --SteelersFan UK06 04:42, 5 August 2007 (UTC)


 * Delete all. I might offend some people with this vote, but this is just needless wrestlingcruft. J I P  | Talk 09:07, 5 August 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete all Per nom and ample precedent of deleted DVD articles (Pillman, Billy Graham, Jake Roberts, Roddy Piper). A line about the release in main subjects article is ok.  I hope that something is also done with the articles on TNA DVDs, which are far less notable than WWE releases. Biggspowd 18:50, 5 August 2007 (UTC)
 * Merge all to appropriate articles per JForget. JPG-GR 23:46, 6 August 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete all After reviewing a handful of the nominations, it appears that these articles are unable to stand on their own and as such, are using notable subjects as COATRACK-like tools to justify their existence. --Aarktica 11:52, 11 August 2007 (UTC)
