List of current champions in World Wrestling Entertainment[edit]

Notified: Scorpion0422, WP:PW

When this list was promoted it had 9 entries, and now only 6 still exist. To deserve the FL status, I feel like the scope of the list needs to be broadened a bit, to include something more than the 6 champion titles. Nergaal (talk) 22:56, 5 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Such as? -- Scorpion0422 23:05, 5 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]
I agree, it is way too short and shouldn't really exist. It is content forking in my opinion. Only reason it exists is because of the topic. I think that topic would be better served with an article covering all the titles to exist in the company.--WillC 00:35, 6 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]
If I had my way, this and List of former championships in World Wrestling Entertainment would be merged into a single list, documenting the first and last (current) champions throughout the promotion's history. Courcelles 02:42, 6 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]
I was thinking more of an actual article than a list, as this would be the format for future title topics. Kinda like what I've worked on here.--WillC 02:57, 6 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Comment This should either (a) be an article that lists the history of the champions, or (b) be merged into the main WWE article. (a) is a lot of work and would be outside the scope of this FLRC I suspect, (b) is a clear delist selection. The Rambling Man (talk) 18:55, 6 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]

World Wrestling Entertainment is already a large article, and sticking the current table right in the middle of it would be out of place. Personally, I think this page qualifies as a standalone list, but I wouldn't be opposed to merging it with List of former championships in World Wrestling Entertainment. -- Scorpion0422 23:25, 6 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]
A merge would be fine, and keeping the merged list as the lead for the current champions topic would work well. Nergaal (talk) 03:03, 7 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]
I'm not averse to merging so we have one overall list of champions. I think "current champion" lists are a bit silly anyway as they are rarely stable from one week to the next. The Rambling Man (talk) 12:30, 7 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]
  • Remove – As it stands now, this is a six-item list. I don't believe it has any kind of case in 3b terms to remain an FL. If the list was turned into one about all of the WWE's different championships over the years, as is being talked about, that would resolve the 3b concern in my mind.

  • Comment Its a list of champions, not championships, so technically there are 7 items (Edge, Wade Barrett, Miz, Sheamus, Eve, Slater and Gabriel) not 6. Feedback ☎ 03:44, 23 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Wow, 7 that is such a list. I still think this needs to be delisted and we need an article over all championships in WWE. Like what I showed above.--WillC 05:56, 24 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]
