Jason Pierce (fighter)[edit]

Procedural nomination; I personally am neutral on this matter. See User talk:NuclearWarfare#Jason Pierce and Jeremy May Deletion

The creator of this article wishes to see this deleted. The reason he gave me was, "First I'll tell you the Jason Pierce page does get a lot of edits but they are always considered vandalism. Most people will put small things in calling Jason names or creating unknown and/or unneeded info. Jason shows no notability other than being on The Ultimate Fighter where he was pulled from competing because of an illness. TreyGeek and myself both agree that the page be deleted."

Keep. Article includes several references and that this fighter regularly appears on a TV show, notability seems to be established. If the article is being vandalised, protect it rather than delete the article. 174.152.208.81 (talk) 01:37, 24 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Delete Being on television does not give you notability. Neither have fought for big promotions, neither got far doing the t.v. show. Jeremy May has a horrible record and actual gave up fighting after his last fight (a loss). Jason has also gave up fighting and is now focusing on his coaching career in soccer.

Weak Keep. --AuthorityTam (talk) 05:29, 24 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- Per WP:NOTAVOTE, could you please express a reason for your statement? If not, your opinion may be discounted by the closing administrator. NW (Talk) 14:20, 24 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for stating the obvious, but I already understand that my unsubstantiated opinion isn't a vote. I'd have probably substantiated a Keep or a Strong Keep, but a Weak Keep doesn't merit much. --AuthorityTam (talk) 18:45, 24 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Redirect I don't see notability outside of his appearance on the reality show. A stand alone article is probably not needed. However It might not be a bad idea to redirect to the TV show.--Cube lurker (talk) 14:33, 24 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Redirect per Cube lurker. Non-notable as a mixed martial artist. --aktsu ^(t / c) 15:39, 24 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Delete not notable, basically one event--AssegaiAli (talk) 22:06, 25 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]
