[edit] CDFL

Not notable. Vanity. Advertising for a small--very small?--fantasy football league.Mmmbeer 02:06, 8 August 2005 (UTC)

• Delete as vanity. My fantasy football league has a longer, more interesting history. Mitchell k dwyer 02:55, 8 August 2005 (UTC)
• Delete all fantasy football leagues. Inherently non-notable. -- BD2412 ^talk 04:31, August 8, 2005 (UTC)
• Comment need clear criteria for notability of organizations and online communities. Maybe your fantasy league is more notable, but what's the criteria? Number of users? Length of operation? Google hits? If you don't play fantasy football (or aren't interested in reading about it), you may think it's all non-notable; some people think stock-car racing is non-notable, and pro wrestling isn't "sport". Would 1 million FF players convince you? 10 million? DavidH 05:41, August 8, 2005 (UTC)
  • Comment: It is characteristic of FF leagues not to pay much attention to the goings-on in other leagues, with a few rare exceptions. The original Rotisserie Baseball League, who counts among its owners the revered "Founding Fathers" of fantasy baseball, might be one, but it has published tens of books and its members were either notable when the league began (sportswriters of national repute, for instance) or became notable after (as published experts in baseball analysis). So, no, I wouldn't categorically consider all fantasy leagues non-notable, but your typical fantasy footbal league is not like your typical university or your typical professional league. It's just a bunch of schmoes, among whom I count myself, who love sports. Mitchell k dwyer 08:16, 8 August 2005 (UTC)
• Keep: Seems like it's been around a long time, and has a lot of participants.

• Delete If this league has published any books on the subject or produced any works that other FF leagues deem notable, it might be worth keeping.
