Shine Fights

(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

Articles cover a relatively non-notable, local/regional promotion. Offers no suggestion as to why Shine Fights, or its three events, are more notable than the hundreds of other regional promotions around the U.S. --TreyGeek (talk) 03:32, 26 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I am also nominating the following related pages because they are, IMO, about non-notable MMA events run by a non-notable promotion:

Delete - It was on my watchlist. It fails WP:Directory among other things. I am not sure even the individual fights or even competitors would be notable on their own standing either. Shadowjams (talk) 11:05, 26 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Keep - The promotion has some top talent signed onto their roster such as Jeff Monson, Din Thomas, Micah Miller, Nick Thompson, Danillo Villefort, Ricardo Mayorga and so many more. They are being covered by all the major MMA sites, so you can't say that it isn't a big or notable promotion. The promotion is also a lot bigger and more well known then some promotions that are currently on the Wiki. So if this one goes down I hope to see the other ones go down as well.

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so consensus may be reached.

Delete The single reference is an article on a mixed martial arts blog. That one reference isn't enough to establish notability. Jim Heaphy (talk) 05:03, 5 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]
