Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Grimsley High School Ultimate Club

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The following discussion is an archived debate of the proposed deletion of the article below. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page (such as the article's talk page or in a deletion review). No further edits should be made to this page.

The result of the debate was delete. Vote count here is 6 merge/10 delete, but I think that the "merge" voters did so under the assumption that this club actually existed. Arguments have been presented that the club is not verifiable, and because of this it is not a suitable candidate for merging. Sjakkalle (Check!) 15:29, 14 November 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Grimsley High School Ultimate Club

School athletic club. Article does not make clear exactly what they do! Non-notable. Merge into Grimsley High School. -- RHaworth 14:40, 8 November 2005 (UTC)

  • You don't need AfD's help for a merge. fuddlemark (fuddle me!) 15:00, 8 November 2005 (UTC)
    • by using AfD, I am inviting others, more deletionist to say delete completely. -- RHaworth 15:05, 8 November 2005 (UTC)
      • Hmm, you make a good point. Consider my face officially red. fuddlemark (fuddle me!) 15:11, 8 November 2005 (UTC)
  • Merge per fuddlemark Just zis Guy, you know? [T]/[C] :: AfD? 15:04, 8 November 2005 (UTC)
  • Merge these things without bringing them to Afd, which is full enough already. Kappa 16:47, 8 November 2005 (UTC)
  • Merge as per nominator. Capitalistroadster 17:20, 8 November 2005 (UTC)
  • Not a sensible use of AfD time. No vote. --Tony SidawayTalk 18:41, 8 November 2005 (UTC)
  • Merge whatever content may be mergeable. Come on, no need to use AFD for this. Titoxd(?!?) 21:23, 8 November 2005 (UTC)
  • Extreme delete. There is nothing here that is worth merging into the school article. This is pure and utter vanity. User:Zoe|(talk) 01:35, 9 November 2005 (UTC)
  • Delete There is nothing here that needs to be merged. - brenneman(t)(c) 02:07, 9 November 2005 (UTC)
  • Delete, no merge. There's nothing verifiable here, thus nothing to merge. I agree this is not a good use of Afd, it should have been speedied. Oh, it was. Hmm. Friday (talk) 03:25, 9 November 2005 (UTC)
  • Delete with no merge needed per Aaron Brenneman. --Metropolitan90 03:39, 9 November 2005 (UTC)
  • Delete What is there to merge? The best i can think of is that the ultimate team and founding date is added to the school page. Since the team is already listed on the school page then just add the words founded 2002. David D. (Talk) 04:14, 9 November 2005 (UTC)
Just a thought but since this IP traces to Haverford College not NC it appears this is either written by an alumini of Grimsley or a hoaxer (i notice the ultimate team mention on the HS page was added from the same IP number). Who will be ringing up Grimsley HS to verify this team exists? David D. (Talk) 04:21, 9 November 2005 (UTC)
  • Comment. I'm curious what, exactly, the people saying merge think ought to be merged? The existance of this student club? (It doesn't sound like it's even a proper team). Its membership and history? The kid who hurt his foot? Any given high school is going to have many many student clubs. Unless they're somehow significant, I don't think this type of incredibly-local-interest detail needs to be included. And, by local interest, I mean only the members themselves are likely to be interested. A good high school football team might have enough interest (and coverage in local papers) to be mentioned in the H.S. article, but a club?? What could they have done that would be verifiable?

  • Strong Delete or we would soon end up with an article about every schools' toilet.  Grue  18:16, 9 November 2005 (UTC)
    • As I understand it, some would maintain that if a thousand people have used one particular toilet, and if an article about it is verifiable and not a copyvio, we should have an article about it. (Personally, I do not agree). Dpbsmith (talk) 00:24, 10 November 2005 (UTC)
  • Delete as non-notable and probably not verifiable. Not listed in Grimsley High School student organizations or Grimsley High School athletics. Dpbsmith (talk) 00:24, 10 November 2005 (UTC)

  • Delete per Friday and Dan Smith. WP:V and WP:RS need to be taken far more seriously than they currently are. The integrity of the encyclopedia rests on it. It has often surprised me that there is so much difference in the way we generally address contraventions of WP:Copyrights, and contraventions of WP:V & WP:RS. It shouldn't be that way. All core article policies—NPOV, V, NOR, Copyrights—ought to be observed with great care. encephalon 00:59, 11 November 2005 (UTC)
  • Delete per encephalon. Xoloz 14:54, 12 November 2005 (UTC)
