[edit] Jennings_Rutter_Battle
AfDs for this article:

- I don't see the original research. If we put the slightly clumsy attempt to group the main events under stage headings aside, it seems that the author has merely attempted to lay out a chronological summary of the rivalry. This is a convention adopted in the majority of Wikipedia articles dealing with a series of events. However, I don't agree with this particular presentation of these facts. The references (you can't deny the article is at least well-referenced) don't seem to suggest that the particular rivalry between Jennings and Rutter is anything more than one of the more prominent rivalries between game show contestants. Therefore, I think the articles should be moved to something like Rivalry between regular game show contestants, and then expanded to cover rivalry between game show contestants in general.

- Delete - WP:OR. And, if it's not original research, the article is poorly written and would require a lot of revision. TheInfinityZero 15:00, 1 September 2007 (UTC)
- Delete. Original research. Keb25 15:05, 1 September 2007 (UTC)
- I'll take Wikipedia for $600. "It's what happens to articles that are original research at Articles for Deletion." What is delete?. Correct, select again! Andy Saunders 17:07, 1 September 2007 (UTC)
