[edit] 55th Grey Cup
This page is entirely useless and an appropriate entry could be handled better by Grey Cup. I hesitated at first because they red link EVERY match on Grey Cup. Individual games are definitely NN and not encyclopedic, in this context. Mmmbeer 21:50, 27 July 2005 (UTC)
delete for the reasons Mmmbeer gives. Thryduulf 01:20, 28 July 2005 (UTC)- Merge into an article about other grey cup matches, perhaps 1960-69 Grey Cup matches or 50th - 59th Grey Cup matches or something. I see nothing in this article that explains why this particular match is notable enough for an article of its own or how it can grow without the insertion of trivia. Truly notable matches where there is chance of more than two or three short paragraphs of encyclopaedic information can have break-out articles, but I don't see this match as one of them.

- I was all fired up in disbelief for nominating a Grey Cup article until I read the "article" in question. The score is wrong (I suspect the contributor was thinking of the 54th Grey Cup) and that would have been the only encyclopedic part of the entry since the other sentence was POV.
Delete[Vote changed below] but let the red links stand since articles on the Grey Cups will be very interesting and encyclopedic and we don't need all 92 Grey Cup games on the Grey Cup page. The long and colourful history of the Grey Cup will be a long enough article on its own. DoubleBlue (Talk) 03:46, 28 July 2005 (UTC)- Keep. NormanEinstein has done the work of creating a suitable stub in place of the previous "article". DoubleBlue (Talk) 20:51, 2 August 2005 (UTC)
- Delete- inaccurate article. However, individual Grey Cup games are generally notable; although admittedly not quite the same as individual Super Bowl games. If someone writes up good articles for them, they should be kept. --Scimitar parley 13:29, 28 July 2005 (UTC)
- Keep. The article in its present form is pretty poor, but the 55th Grey Cup is a topic worthy of an article. If the article contains inaccurate information the information should be corrected or removed. This article should be tagged as a stub and given a chance to grow. --NormanEinstein 16:20, August 2, 2005 (UTC)
- I've formatted and wikified the article in addition to correcting its factual errors. I think this should sate those that wanted it deleted because of inaccuracies. --NormanEinstein 20:52, August 2, 2005 (UTC)
- Very strong keep. --OntarioQuizzer 05:17, 3 August 2005 (UTC)
- Keep. If Super Bowls deserve own pages, so do Grey Cups. --Woohookitty 02:56, 7 August 2005 (UTC)
