Strikeforce Challengers: Bowling vs. Voelker

 * – ( View AfD View log  •  Stats )

Contested PROD : This sports event fails WP:NOTNEWSPAPER policy along with WP:EVENT, WP:SPORTSEVENT and WP:MMAEVENT, there is no attempt in the actual article to demonstrate any lasting significance, the sources are from either before or immediately post the event and are just of the routine coverage type any sports event gets, they are either not independent or from MMA centric websources that lack diversity.

 * Delete The article lacks "well sourced prose" as requested by WP:SPORTSEVENT. --TreyGeek (talk) 01:29, 23 April 2012 (UTC)
 * Delete This event was designed to showcase up and coming MMA fighters. I see nothing that shows long term significance as required by WP:EVENT and the coverage was WP:ROUTINE. Astudent0 (talk) 17:35, 23 April 2012 (UTC)

The campaign to delete MMA events has been shown to be bias and dubious motives. As such, all events purposed for deletion during this period need left alone. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 173.22.218.139 (talk) 00:19, 25 April 2012 (UTC) — 173.22.218.139 (talk) has made few or no other edits outside this topic.
