Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/UFC 149: Aldo vs. Koch (2nd nomination)
at this time. As an outsider to this topic area, I observed that AFDs are being nominated out-of-process because there is an open RFC and an open RFC/U discussing these same questions, and MEDCAB is indicated but has not been opened yet. Thus AFD is the wrong forum to hash this out. As Factseducado pointed out, I have been discussing with admin Dennis Brown a way to resolve the conflict, within policy, that may well make this AFD irrelevant. Further, the alleged disruption caused by nominating AFDs when there is not consensus that AFDs should proceed is something ''I was once blocked for''. As to notability, my policy argument is that, whether or not this event is notable (haven't looked), it should be kept in the same way we routinely keep other nonnotable breakouts of summary articles. This is based on  recognizing that notable lists like 2012 in UFC events are unlimited as to content, and  describing how unlimited list content can be broken out into articles like the present one; so, rather than merge to 2012 in UFC events, my comment is actually equivalent to '''merge to self'''. While this has not yielded consensus yet due to a hostile environment, it is certain that since some reasonable editors countenance it as within policy and that the current nom may be considered disruptive. Further, as an inclusionist, I find Agent00f's argument in favor of championship notability more persuasive than the opposite; I also find that Agent00f correctly indicated there is evidence that Mtking is an SPA, and that Mtking deleted this statement twice (http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia:Articles_for_deletion/UFC_149:_Aldo_vs._Koch_%282nd_nomination%29&diff=prev&oldid=493315710 here is the second case), even though it is generally very poor netiquette to delete the comments of others, and (as Mtking should know from following the RFC/U) such behavior is specifically deprecated in RFC/U since it should not be considered a reasonable outcome there by any stretch. (There is an exception for BLP, but noting an SPA factually in clear cases is not a contentious, removable observation; it's quite relevant.) Not watching this page
