Deletion of BAMMA 9

Comment: There's no indication this event meets  or .  The fact that both sources are concerned with a person who won't be there is a little like saying the local PTA bake sale is notable because the Presdient won't be attending

Comment: In addition to my above comments about sources, there's no indication that the coverage is anything but .  There's nothing to show that this event will have the "lasting effects" or "duration of coverage" required to pass .  I also think it would be better to not create articles on events that haven't happened yet

Comment: par , and . sigh Here we go again, another pointless nomination of a clearly notable MMA event being made by the usual user. This event is being headlined by the promotion's World Middleweight Champion and their British Middleweight Champion, both of which are extremely notable fighters and hugely popular within UK MMA. This event has been receiving loads of attention over the last few months, at one point Nate Marquardt was linked to this event. The fact that this page is being nominated for deletion is a complete joke

Comment: In reviewing Athilea's links, I'm not at all convinced (not least at our natural suspicion when a SPA's first and only edits are on AfDs).  First off, those links which could be considered reliable discuss not this event, but one or another of the various fighters scheduled to appear.  Since |notability is not inherited, their own prominence has no effect on this article.  One links that does mention the event has "PRESS RELEASE" blatantly printed on it, which anyone knowledgeable in Wikipedia policies and guidelines would know isn't acceptable as a source.  Nor is Athilea's "Nothing MMA is notable" smear either |civil or helpful; no Delete proponent has said anything of the sort, and some are active on the MMA Wikiproject

Comment: The article lacks "well-sourced prose" that is required by  for article about notable sporting events.  The potential sources for the article appear to simply contain  fight announcements.   says that there needs to be "significant coverage" of the event for it to be notable; at best "significant coverage" of the event is debatable at worst lacks significant coverage, thus fails
