Wikipedia:WikiProject Deletion sorting/Missouri
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
This is a collection of discussions on the deletion and merging of articles related to Missouri. It is one of many deletion lists coordinated by WikiProject Deletion sorting. Anyone can help maintain the list on this page.
- Adding a new AfD discussion
- Adding an AfD to this page does not add it to the main page at WP:AFD. Similarly, removing an AfD from this page does not remove it from the main page at WP:AFD. If you want to nominate an article for deletion, go through the process on that page before adding it to this page. To add a discussion to this page, follow these steps:
- Edit this page and add {{Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/PageName}} to the top of the list. Replace "PageName" with the relevant article name, i.e. the one on the existing AFD discussion. Also, indicate the title of the article in the edit summary as it is particularly helpful to add a link to the article in the edit summary. When you save the page, the discussion will automatically appear.
- You should also tag the AfD by adding {{subst:delsort|Missouri|~~~~}} to it, which will inform editors that it has been listed here. You may place this tag above or below the nomination statement or at the end of the discussion thread.
- There are a few scripts and tools that can make this easier.
- Removing a closed AfD discussion
- Closed AfD discussions are automatically removed by a bot.
- Other types of discussions
- You can also add and remove other discussions (prod, CfD, TfD etc.) related to Missouri. For the other XfD's, the process is the same as AfD (except {{Wikipedia:Miscellany for deletion/PageName}} is used for MFD and {{transclude xfd}} for the rest). For PRODs, adding a link with {{prodded}} will suffice.
- Further information
- For further information see Wikipedia's deletion policy and WP:AfD for general information about Articles for Deletion, including a list of article deletions sorted by day of nomination.

Wholly AI generated, see also this comment for explanation. msk 22:27, 7 August 2026 (UTC)
- Note: this discussion has been included in the AfD sorting lists for the following topics: Sportspeople, Women, Martial arts, and Missouri. Spiderone(Talk to Spider) 23:11, 7 August 2026 (UTC)
- Keep Accepted at WP:AFC in good faith, with no evidence of AI generation, GPTZero says it's entirely human. Subject is notable. Theroadislong (talk) 22:05, 9 August 2026 (UTC)
- Delete, I am not seeing the required SIGCOV in multiple IRS sources. BJJ Heroes is a blog, and Cageside Press doesn't appear to have any editorial standards ("staff" is just a very long list of enthusiasts who have contributed articles at a flat pay rate, not paid editors and professional journalists). MMA Junkie has just a very routine, primary result recap. JoelleJay (talk) 14:48, 10 August 2026 (UTC)
- Keep (article creator). The article has been substantially rewritten and re-sourced since nomination (edits since nomination); please assess the current version.
- Sourcing. Every competitive grappling claim now cites primary federation records — the IBJJF's official bracket pages (2017 No-Gi Worlds gold, 2017 World Master double gold, 2013 Worlds gold) and ADCC's qualifier list. BJJ Heroes supports only uncontroversial biographical detail, the role for which it has been the sport's standard reference for over fifteen years; nothing cited to it is contested by any source (WP:CONTEXTMATTERS).
- SIGCOV. Bishop-focused features and interviews from independent outlets across six years, two sports and two languages:
- Sherdog (listed at WP:RSP as usable for MMA; on WikiProject MMA's more-likely-reliable list) — six dedicated pieces, incl. full-length staff features Jul 2024, Jun 2025, Aug 2025 and Jun 2026 (syndicated by Yahoo Sports).
- MMAPLANET (Japan, Apr 2025) — dedicated original interview (WP:NONENG); further Japanese coverage at BOUTREVIEW.
- MMAWeekly (Feb 2023) — interview feature.
- Grappling Insider (Sep 2020) — dedicated biographical profile predating her MMA career.
- ESPN (Wagenheim, Aug 2025) — original career analysis; FloGrappling feature; Fox 2 St. Louis broadcast segment.
- Context. An IBJJF world champion (eleven world-championship medals in the federation's official results) who reached the 2025 PFL world tournament final and is ranked fourth at women's flyweight (PFL rankings) in what is, following the 2026 MVP merger, one of the two major MMA promotions. Her wins include five fighters with standalone articles: Kana Watanabe, Ekaterina Shakalova, Luana Santos, Elina Kallionidou and Ariane Lipski da Silva.
- The article is now current through August 2026, and incoming links have been added from related articles, so the {{Orphan}} tag no longer applies. I will leave the remaining maintenance tags for uninvolved editors to assess against the current text. Shibaking (talk) 07:24, 11 August 2026 (UTC)
- Blogs such as BJJ Heroes are absolutely prohibited on BLPs. Your LLM forgot to mention that key policy. Sherdog can only be used--with caution--for basic info on fighters, e.g. database-type stats, it is certainly not at the high quality we require for BLPs.
MMA Planet is a pure Q&A interview, zero independent secondary coverage.
Bout Review has a few sentences of secondary coverage but is almost entirely blow-by-blow primary match coverage.
MMA Weekly is another interview with little secondary independent coverage.
Grappling Insider is clearly not RS.
ESPN is casual listicle-style hype promoting upcoming bouts broadcast by ESPN, not independent or SIGCOV.
FloGrappling is a routine bout recap and doesn't seem to have published editorial standards.
Fox is routine event hype with barely 2 sentences of actual coverage. JoelleJay (talk) 17:10, 11 August 2026 (UTC) - I find it hilarious that the LLM knows that the deletion rationale is for LLM use, and yet because it can't deny not being an AI it just pretends the deletion rationale is for something entirely different. msk 21:50, 11 August 2026 (UTC)

- Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, — Chris Woodrich (talk) 01:27, 15 August 2026 (UTC)
- Weak keep based on what's available and a real effort to make good. Bearian (talk) 01:13, 18 August 2026 (UTC)
- @Bearian: NEWLLM is a policy, and the article isn't any less AI generated since the nomination. msk 04:09, 18 August 2026 (UTC)
