Neither Roderick Brookes nor Pro Wrestling Warriors are notable. Very very very few Google hits that are not from Wikipedia, wikia, or web forums. [1] - Pro Wrestling Warriors appears to be some sort of fantasy wrestling site. [2] - fiction.Corvus cornix 03:12, 16 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

- Please read WP:RS and provide multiple reliable sources for him. And please explain why all of the references to him are fictional. Corvus cornix 04:25, 16 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

- Strong delete. Per the edit box reminder, "Encyclopedic content must be verifiable." This article provides no reliable sources. It hovers right near speedy deletion criterion A7 in my mind, since an assertion of notability ought to be backed up with sources. —C.Fred (talk) 14:57, 16 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete per nom. No WP:RS. --Evb-wiki 15:27, 16 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- This should be a speedy delete. It's a direct copy from a wikia page that pertains to fictional fantasy wrestling. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 66.176.85.30 (talk • contribs) 20:57, 16 June 2007 (UTC).[reply]
- The problem is, Wikia is likely under GFDL also, so it's not copyvio, and works of fiction are not inherently a cause for speedy deletion.
That said, what's the link to the Wikia page?—C.Fred (talk) 21:42, 16 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]- No Cure for Deletion! --69.149.118.24 23:26, 16 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- I found the pages for both Brookes and PWW at the eWrestling Encyclopedia. Note that buried at the bottom of the PWW article, it admits that PWW is a work of fiction. My recommendation of a strong delete stands. I now clarify that this is a non-notable character in a non-notable game world/fiction realm. —C.Fred (talk) 21:52, 16 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]
