disputed PROD for ultimate frisbee team. not notable nationally, these are local sports clubs, or college club sports and do not pass WP:ORG. Also, please see AfD:Cheveron Action Flash.

Eugene DarkStar (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs)
Seattle Riot (Ultimate) (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs)
Fingers 6 (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs)
Brownian Motion Ultimate (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs)
Seattle Sockeye (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs)
Disc Northwest (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs)
  • Keep most especially DiscNW, it is not a team, but one of the model regional organizations in Ultimate. Also keep Seattle Sockeye, Furious George and Eugene Darkstar as they are men's teams playing at the highest level of Ultimate in the USA. The others I'll go a weak keep on. We definitely need to find sources establishing notability in all of the articles. --Liface 21:20, 9 February 2007 (UTC)
  • Delete for lack of sources showing that the clubs or the sport played with a Frisbee is notable. Inkpaduta 22:06, 9 February 2007 (UTC)
  • Keep all but Fingers 6, as they don't appear to be very notable. It looks like their biggest achievement was "7th in the UK's Indoor Nationals", and "a host of Trophies from various competitive events over the years." I should also point out that Furious George already survived a previous AfD. Rawr 22:16, 9 February 2007 (UTC)
  • Keep These teams compete in the highest possible level of Ultimate -- the UPA National Championships (alright, except for Fingers 6, I don't know anything about them). Riot, Sockeye, and Furious George have won many of the championships this last decade, and Brown won 2 years ago in College nats. If Ultimate the sport is worthy of any inclusion, these teams are -- in fact, more are. Fantusta 01:51, 10 February 2007 (UTC)
  • Keep per above. Also note that this article was previously kept in a previous AfD discussion in September. Resolute 07:44, 10 February 2007 (UTC)
