Core muscle training

Non-notable. One of the references is to a book by Oswaldo Koch--the page was created by Oskoch (clear COI). It's been 10 years and nothing has been done to confirm notability of this subject, likely because it just can't be. Fisheriesmgmt (talk) 03:13, 13 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Has anyone tried to confirm notability of this subject? Siuenti (talk) 08:48, 13 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]

@Siuenti: I've looked into it more and it seems like this essentially blends Core stability and Abdominal exercise. It is fairly clear that the original Core muscle training article was intended to promote the creating editor's own work, which is likely why this redundant article was created. I don't believe it provides any more information than either of the articles above, however, it may be better to do a merge and/or redirect than a straight AfD.

Thanks for finding those. I'd be happy with a redirect to core stability while hoping someone knowledgeable comes along to improve it. Siuenti (talk) 22:00, 13 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Keep The nomination seems to claim that the notability of the topic can't be confirmed. That is quite false. For example, see:

Redirect I don't find much info on the page that can be merged. It's better if redirected. Dormantos (talk) 15:33, 4 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]
