Sam Oropeza

 * – ( View AfD View log  •  Stats )

Fails to establish notability. 'Sam Oropeza' is not "the subject of multiple published secondary sources which are reliable, intellectually independent of each other, and independent of the subject". The article includes unreliable references including blog entries. No results for the subject on Google Books, with very minimal, trivial local news coverage. --IShadowed 03:37, 30 June 2012 (UTC)

This fighter is listed as one of the fighters in the List of Bully Beatdown episodes, and i figure an article should have been made for him. That's all. Thebestofall007 (talk) 14:57, 30 June 2012 (UTC)

 * Delete This is an article about an MMA fighter that does meet the notability criteria at WP:MMANOT. I don't see anything to show his appearance in an episode (that didn't air in the U.S.) of an MTV show meets any notability criteria. Papaursa (talk) 18:50, 1 July 2012 (UTC)
 * Delete As per WP: GNG, since all of the sources are not considered reliable. I should probably also point out that those notability guidelines are merely an essay, not the actual policy here, but he still fails WP: ATHLETE. Electriccatfish2 (talk) 23:46, 3 July 2012 (UTC)
