[edit] Team Polizei
- Delete, I would like to propose a deletion of the Team Polizei page for the reason of, not notable enough as they are getting not one single pace to having a page for criminals and are the only Gumball 3000 partipicant who is mentioned I can think of who is not a proper celebrity.

- Delete. In addition to the nominator's arguments, it appears to be a vanity page. See WP:COI. 129.98.212.51 04:02, 26 December 2006 (UTC)
- Delete. In argeement with the above comments. Alex Roy might deserve his own article (assuming that his book will be published by a mainstream media outlet), but beside the point. BMan1113VR 05:38, 26 December 2006 (UTC)
- Delete per above, borderline speedy. MER-C 07:12, 26 December 2006 (UTC)
- Keep and cleanup, press page on their site offers numerous examples of media coverage. The tone is a bit vanity, but they're covered extensively in secondary sources. Night Gyr (talk/Oy) 08:53, 26 December 2006 (UTC)
- Delete an underground racing team is exactly that, thus has no real place on Wikipedia. Also references for such an association would likely be incomplete and biased. TehKewl1 08:56, 26 December 2006 (UTC)
- Did you look? There were several articles from mainstream sources like Vanity Fair and the New York Post. Night Gyr (talk/Oy) 09:07, 26 December 2006 (UTC)
- The Vanity Fair article is a piece on the Gumball Rally. Alex Roy as an individual is one of the focus of a good bit of the article, but I would say it provides support for an Alex Roy article rather than a Team Polizei article, and considering how the two appear to be inextricably linked, it probably would make sense to create an Alex Roy article with Team Polizei being a section of the article. -- Whpq 16:04, 26 December 2006 (UTC)

- Delete - I'd say merge with Alex Roy, but it appears not to exist. -- Whpq 16:04, 26 December 2006 (UTC)
- Delete - underground? says it all. -- Chrislk02 (Chris Kreider) 19:02, 26 December 2006 (UTC)
- Delete may be a WP:COI, doesn't appear to be notable. Hello32020 21:52, 26 December 2006 (UTC)
- Delete - fails to demonstrate adequate notability. --Jackhorkheimer 22:03, 26 December 2006 (UTC)
- Delete well per the notability concerns. — Arjun 00:31, 27 December 2006 (UTC)
