WWF Mayhem in Manchester

Has been a redirect for many years, which occasionally gets reconstituted back into an article. Current sourcing is poor (to be charitable). Couple of brief blurbs, couple of database listings. The best in terms of content is a blog, unfortunately. Searches turned up very little in terms of any coverage, let alone substantive in-depth coverage. Fails

• Keep - The previous article which was a redirected is completely different than the article in its current form. The event meets
  WP:GNG. - Galatz^Talk 18:21, 14 February 2018 (UTC)[reply

• keep clearly a notable event. I find it hard to believe there are no paper sources or newspaper articles in tabloids for the event. Lee Vilenski ^{(talk • contribs)} 19:47, 14 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]

• Comment Delete - None of the sources currently in the article are proven reliable sources. According to
  WP:LASTING argument either (at least not yet). According to WP:LASTING, "Events that have a noted and sourced permanent effect of historical significance are likely to be notable" and "Events are often considered to be notable if they act as a precedent or catalyst for something else". What permanent effect did this have? What is the reliable source that proves this event was the direct cause of said result? Nikki♥311 23:48, 15 February 2018 (UTC)[reply

Edit: I've finally had a chance to more thoroughly research this topic, and I've decided on delete. This topic does not meet

WP:GNG as it lacks significant coverage in reliable independent sources. Nikki♥311 01:48, 1 March 2018 (UTC)[reply

• Keep per
  WP:EVENT. L293D (☎ • ✎) 15:06, 28 February 2018 (UTC)[reply

• Comment - What part of
  WP:EVENT? It's had no lasting effect (as pointed out by Nikki311 above), the depth of coverage by reliable sources is non-existent, it has very limited scope. Not sure how it meets EVENT. Simply saying meets a standard is not the same as showing how it meets that standard. Onel5969 ^{TT me} 18:55, 28 February 2018 (UTC)[reply

• Delete - My gut feeling looking at this says keep, but it in fact, it doesn't meet any of the criteria to keep under
  WP:EVENT. None of the sources are particularly notable, independant of the subject, or qualify as RS. Deathlibrarian (talk) 06:25, 6 March 2018 (UTC)[reply

• Delete Sourcing is bad and doesn't have coverage in reliable, independent sources. JTP ^{(talk • contribs)} 02:20, 9 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]
