[edit] Bay City Buccaneers

Page tagged for speedy, but google search turns up several hits so I'd like some feedback. New York Dreams (talk)

  • Delete From what I understand this is a youth football team in Australia. There is nothing notable about them that would warrant an article. There are tens of thousands of such teams in the U.S. and we are not accepting articles from them. As for the Google hits there are 347, mainly from football team websites within the league.

  • Delete: Non notable club. Google search brings back nothing which would help establish any notability. - Rjd0060 (talk) 05:18, 24 November 2007 (UTC)
  • Delete Not notable. • Lawrence Cohen 09:48, 24 November 2007 (UTC)

*Delete unless there is an actual league that it could be merged to? Even the league probably should be merged to American football in Victoria though I guess!Garrie 10:37, 25 November 2007 (UTC)

  • Redirect -- to Gridiron Victoria. - Longhair\talk 00:46, 26 November 2007 (UTC)
  • Redirect per Longhair welcome back Garrie 02:27, 26 November 2007 (UTC)
  • Comment Should this be expanded to include other teams in the same league? All articles are unreferenced. Garrie 02:27, 26 November 2007 (UTC)
I would be fine with that. They have the same problems this article does. A complete list is here. Feel free to batch list them for deletion or to redirect. KnightLago (talk) 02:29, 26 November 2007 (UTC)
  • Delete Entirely original research. Narrative. Ending clauses like 'the rest is history,' doesn't help, although I may just start inserting that when I get writers block. the_undertow talk 05:51, 26 November 2007 (UTC)
  • Delete I wouldn't redirect. In my opinion, the entire league is not notable and should be removed. Spanneraol (talk) 19:54, 27 November 2007 (UTC)
  • Delete, amateur (presumably) gridiron team, does not seem to be any sources to provide verifiability or notability. Lankiveil (talk) 12:32, 28 November 2007 (UTC).
