Article consists of nothing but a recounting of the fight card. No sourced prose to demonstrate why the article should exisist. Entire article depends on 2 sources (one being the fighter's database entry). Article still relatively new therefore it would be reasonable to WP:USERFY the article and pass it through the WP:AfC process to get an independent view on it's reasonablness to be added to mainspace.

- By your own reasoning 2+2+"Wait some time for someone to fill in details"=BlueMonkey. Even from this point the article still demonstrates a significantly below the threshold layer of article quality. You, as the article creator, should have known that the article wasn't appropriate for mainspace yet, yet you created the article anyway. Finally, if you're going to use my name in an edit summary, please have the respect to use it correctly... Hasteur (talk) 14:21, 14 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

- Comment Huh? He is presumed notable under WP:NMMA. He has 3 notable fights against 3 notable opponents. here is another ref to assert his presumed notability under WP:NMMA here. Remember the content can be trash as long as the person is notable. I added some prose asserting his notability. WP is not a bureaucracy.

- Look again... No cited prose. Only a database listing. ERGO it should be deleted. Hasteur (talk) 01:52, 14 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- Clear Keep Passes WP:NMMA for his last 3 fights alone. Somebody created it and only put a couple sentences on it. When it was pointed out, we started working on it. It has enough information in it already to pass notability, and the article will be finished. Willdawg111 (talk) 00:32, 14 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- No... Notabilit is not the only reason. There were no sentences. I can read the history and see that it has been only 24 hours since this was created with no cited prose. Notability is not the only threshold. Please stop your deliberate and obstructionist activities to dilute the purpose of Wikipedia. Hasteur (talk) 01:52, 14 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- Weak Keep until inline sourcing and prose is added. Luchuslu (talk) 02:13, 14 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- Comment Until Drmies pointed it out I did not realize that there was already a article entitled Mike Corey that has existed for quite a while. I note that 2 MMA competitiors, born on the same day, in cities quite near to each other, that have substantially the same MMA record, that have fought the exact same opponents at the same events seems to stretch the reasonableness of this new article. I therefore propose that this article in question be blanked and redirected to Mike Corey. I've already nominated the nacent article under CSD:A10. Hasteur (talk) 16:35, 14 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]
