Teruaki Kanemitsu

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Clearly non-notable wrestler. Made professional debut in 2016 and now permanently injured. All references are from within the wrestling community with no independent 3rd-party WP:RS to support inclusion. One of a swathe of articles on wrestlers of no apparent merit for inclusion, also with no supporting citations, apart from lots of brief entries on wrestling match databases and online video websites. Does not seem to meet WP:SPORTSPERSON or WP:ENTERTAINER. Nick Moyes (talk) 00:33, 21 May 2017 (UTC)
 * I could also add the following examples of similar articles of little apparent merit and no 3rd party sources outside of the wrestling match lists:


 * Takuya Nomura (wrestler)
 * Yoko Bito
 * Hiro Sasaki

 * Delete, do not meet WP:GNG, no significant coverage, most of it in the form of "this guy beat that guy" with no real achievements in their careers.  MPJ  -DK 02:10, 21 May 2017 (UTC)
 * if you meant to include the other three articles in the deletion request then you did not do it right, if you just brought them up as examples then that's irrelevant to this deletion request (and misleading the way it's listed).  MPJ  -DK 09:16, 21 May 2017 (UTC)
 * OK, sorry, it was more to help others determine whether or not I was approaching the rationale behind this particular AfD in the right manner or not. I know zilch about professional wrestling, but see long, detailed, multi-referenced articles that look well-written, but seem just promotional in nature. To that end I posted this question on the Wrestling Project page after posting this AfD, so that I can better understand guidelines for wrestling notability. Hope I've not muddied the waters.

 * Delete - doesn't meet WP:GNG. No significant coverage in reliable independent sources. Also WP:TOOSOON. Nikki  ♥  311   04:18, 24 May 2017 (UTC)
