AfDs for this article:
- WWE Saturday Night's Main Event results (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) (delete) – (View log)
This was discussed many times before, but this list was kept because the event wasn't an ordinary television show by WWE, but the show is just another television show produced by WWE and is nothing special, other than it airs every here and then. This list is just listcruft and either way violates WP:LIST as no prose is present. The list also can not be verified as there are only a few references to the 36 times this has been held, that number is too many shows to list every result. SRX 15:14, 3 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

- Keep. If this were a list of results for a weekly television program, I would support the deletion, but Saturday Night's Main Event isn't a standard weekly show. Given, it isn't on the level of a pay-per-view event, either, but it is significant enough to makes its history noteworthy. Jeff Silvers (talk) 16:01, 3 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Comment. ...Though I will concede that the article needs to be cleaned up and more properly referenced. I'd especially like to see the new PPV results table used, though I know that would be quite an undertaking. Jeff Silvers (talk) 16:02, 3 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep. per Jeff Silvers Adster95 (talk) 18:02, 3 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep for two reasons: It details a significant period (and developments) in professional wrestling history — in particular, the growth seen during the boom period of the 1980s and later. Second, this discussion has come up before and the concensus was to delete; WP:AFD is not a contest of, "well I disagreed with the concensus reached before, so I'll renominate it until I get the desired result." I could see deletion as a possibility if this were standard week-by-week, but it is not the case here. [[Briguy52748 (talk) 23:29, 3 August 2008 (UTC)]][reply]
- Comments- Okay, but is has been almost a year since the last AfD and nothing has been done to improve the quality of the article, no refs, not clean up, no taken care of.SRX 02:49, 4 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- I realize you and other Wiki editors are busy, but be bold and if you find sources for an article that can be sourced (which I believe this article can be using reliable sources), then do so. [[Briguy52748 (talk) 19:48, 4 August 2008 (UTC)]][reply]
- Keep- Very notable since its a major wrestling event. Adam Penale (talk) 19:26, 4 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep - Could in the future be transformed to look like PPV articles, back in the day SNME was huge. D.M.N. (talk) 15:43, 6 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]
