Recreate Nordan Shat as a redirect
Hi, do you think you could recreate Nordan Shat as a redirect to FaZe Clan. There's some edit history there that I think should be preserved.--Prisencolin (talk) 23:13, 1 May 2016 (UTC)

The Deletion of Al Giordano
If we apply the same criteria that was used to delete his article, articles such as this https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tim_Canova Should also be removed as they are not well known and when doing a Google search, only a link to their Facebook and their website can be found.
