[edit] Belgian Third Division Playoff

Well, we are deleting Swedish 3rd division player bio-stubs so what makes the Belgian 3rd division any more notable? Eddie.willers 04:35, 5 September 2005 (UTC)

I feel the text should be moved to the main article Belgian Third Division...Julien Tuerlinckx 09:11, 5 September 2005 (UTC)

• Keep This is clearly far more notable than an individual player at this level. Wikipedia has many articles about sports competitions at this sort of level. Calsicol 14:18, 5 September 2005 (UTC)
• Merge or possibly keep. This is information on the structure of the competition, which should be included somewhere. The question is whether it is separate/complicated enough to have an article of its own JPD 15:17, 5 September 2005 (UTC)
• Delete. Sportscruft. / Peter ^Isotalo 16:26, 5 September 2005 (UTC)
• Real and verifiable. Under what part of the deletion policy do you propose that this be deleted? Keep. Guettarda 23:45, 5 September 2005 (UTC)
  • "Real and verifiable" is so not a criteria for inclusion and never has been. It could be used to motivate keeping anything that isn't an outright lie. The issue is non-notability. / Peter ^Isotalo 06:21, 6 September 2005 (UTC)
• Real, verifiable, trivial sportscruft. Delete or merge one or two sentences into Belgian football or some such. We don't need separate articles on playoff systems or promotion/relegation systems for every nation, let alone each level, nor do we need each year's full results. WP:NOT.

  • We don't need articles about Star Trek either, but we have articles on each episode (and some rather good ones too). Wikipedia is not paper. Guettarda 19:05, 6 September 2005 (UTC)
• Merge into Belgian Third Division. Sam Vimes 11:20, 8 September 2005 (UTC)
• Merge into Belgian Third Division. Qwghlm 18:57, September 8, 2005 (UTC)
• Merge per Sam Vines, etc.... Dottore So 01:30, 9 September 2005 (UTC)
