[edit] World Club Champion Football

World Club Champion Football (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs) – (View log)

This is a directory entry on a game, lacking any independent sources or any evidence of importance. Guy (Help!) 09:17, 17 March 2007 (UTC)

  • Weak delete. The topic is notable, and it's an innovative game, but I can't find any reliable sources talking about it other than a handful of blog entries. -- TedFrank 12:55, 17 March 2007 (UTC)
  • Keep The two external links are enough for me (the official website and the fansite) Oskar 15:20, 17 March 2007 (UTC)
  • Keep, per Oskar. The links are enough to determine verifiability. Eugène van der Pijll 18:41, 17 March 2007 (UTC)
  • Riiiiight. So an official site and a fansite constitutes evidence of encyclopaedic notability? Better go and rewrite WP:N then. Guy (Help!)
  • Keep. A bit of background is probably apropos here - until a few days ago, this article had been a mass of auto-translated gibberish, apparently from the Japanese Wikipedia; this had been in place for well over a year. After Earle Martin posted it to wikien-l, I decided to rewrite it as a sensible stub. Given that there is a rather extensive Japanese article on the subject, the article is probably worth keeping - it just needs some love from someone who actually knows something about the topic, unlike myself.

  • Keep, the links in the article when it was nominated are already sufficient IMO. Taking a look at the actual text at WP:NOT#Wikipedia is not a directory, I can't see how it remotely applies here. Bryan Derksen 22:01, 17 March 2007 (UTC)
  • Keep -- verifiable, encyclopedic. -- The Anome 22:40, 17 March 2007 (UTC)
  • Comment: An official website and a fan website fail WP:V. Corvus cornix 20:21, 18 March 2007 (UTC)
  • Keep -- benefit of the doubt. This is an extensive article with extensive history by multiple Japanese wikipedians who are not part of this discussion. At a minimum I would like to have some sense what they were thinking before deleting. Wouldn't you? --Abu-Fool Danyal ibn Amir al-Makhiri 03:39, 21 March 2007 (UTC)
