Comment. Well, WP:FANCRUFT is an essay, not a policy or guideline. That's not a valid reason to delete a page. I understand your frustration with the amount of pop culture trivia that is on Wikipedia, but we shouldn't go around deleting pages simply because we don't like them. I haven't done anything but skim through the first half of this article, but you might be able to make an argument based on WP:NOT or WP:N that this is an indiscriminate collection of information based on a non-notable topic, but that's just my gut feeling, and it's not based on any informed research.

Procedural close/speed keep No policy-based argument for deletion was presented; only an WP:IDONTLIKEIT rationale. The WWE video games are very notable at the very least. Lukeno94 (tell Luke off here) 11:04, 24 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Weak delete - Generally, per WP:NOT#GAMEGUIDE, lists of rosters in video games are generally not included. If there was however noted interest from secondary sources in the breadth or general inclusion of wrestles in the series, that would be reason to keep. If this is kept, I would argue to revise the approach to the list, as to use a table format, putting the wrestles in rows and games in columns and showing what games they are in; that would cut down the size and be a bit more useful to follow. --MASEM (t) 01:49, 26 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Withdrawing as per discussion. Using my knowledge of the subject, I will revise the article and seek appropriate references. JC · History · Talk · Contributions 07:18, 28 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]
