Fighting Roach Brothers

Two of the three brothers were recently deleted after AfD on notability grounds. The only notable member of the family is Freddie and he already has a good article. The Fighting Roach Brothers article essentially duplicates the notable information and the family group itself is not notable. Peter Rehse (talk) 17:38, 11 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Delete Agree with nominator. There's a lack of coverage of this term--fails GNG as a standalone topic. 109.201.154.178 (talk) 19:56, 12 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so a clearer consensus may be reached.

Delete This looks like an attempt to circumvent the AfD results at the individual discussions. I found a lack of significant coverage on this particular subject (the brothers as a unit). Papaursa (talk) 19:07, 22 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]

To be fair the article was created long before the individual AfD discussions.Peter Rehse (talk) 21:28, 22 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]

You're right--I didn't check the article's history. However, that doesn't change my opinion on this article. Papaursa (talk) 05:09, 23 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]
