[edit] The Batten Twins

Suggesting that this article be deleted due to a lack of WP:NOTABILITY, and also lacks of multiple non-trivial reliable third party sources about the subjects. Google is not the end-all of determining notability, but a cursory search gives only 280 unique hits. [1] The actual Wikipedia article was tagged as unsourced 6 months ago.

• Keep Notable enough, although the article does need a lot of work.

Delete Changed my mind after a little more in depth search. Lacks enough outside info to create an adequate article, although could be recreated if viable sources are found, as they seem to be somewhat notable.

• Delete While lacking reliable sources is not itself a reason to delete, the fact that the article has been tagged as unsourced for several months is evidence that no reliable sources exist. Additionally, I did my own Google search and was unable to find any reliable sources. As such, the subject lacks notability and should be deleted.

• Delete - It doesn't look notable to me. The NWA has really fallen into obscurity, and the other companies are independent promotions notable only in their respective areas. Seeing as they've frequented so many, one could make a case that they are notable overall, but the long-term lack of sources causes me to doubt whether or not they really are.

• Delete They didn't win the NWA Tag Team Titles as such, they held a regional variation which means not much in the grand scheme of things. No non-trivial reliable sources, only references are phone book entries on title history websites. One Night In Hackney₃₀₃ 05:06, 3 November 2007 (UTC)
