This is a collection of discussions on the deletion of articles related to American football. It is one of many deletion lists coordinated by WikiProject Deletion sorting.

You can help maintain the list on this page:

  • To add a new AfD discussion (once it has already been opened on WP:AFD):
  • Edit this page and add {{Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/PageName}} to the top of the list. Replace "PageName" with the relevant article name, i.e. the one on the existing AFD discussion. When you save the page, the discussion will automatically appear.
  • You can also tag the AfD by adding {{subst:delsort|American football}}<small>—~~~~</small> to it, which will inform users that it has been listed here.
  • There are a few scripts and tools that can make this easier.
  • Closed AfD discussions are automatically removed by a bot.
  • You can also add and remove links to other discussions (prod, CfD, TfD etc.) related to American football.

Please note that adding an AfD to, or removing it from, this page does not add it to, or remove it from, the main page at WP:AFD. If you want to nominate an article for deletion, go through the process on that page, before adding it to this page.

For further information see Wikipedia's deletion policy and WP:AfD for general information about Articles for Deletion, including a list of article deletions sorted by day of nomination.

[edit] American football

[edit] Fumble Rumble

Fumble Rumble (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs) (delete) – (View AfD)

I haven't nominated an article for deletion in a bit, so bear with me here. I cannot find anything to substantiate this article in order to qualify its claim of "notability" I'm a huge football fan, but this completely unreferenced article about one play in one game, at the collegiate/non professional level no less, has me baffled as to its inclusion here as a separate article. I've done the appropriate google searches in earnest, and I'm only turning up Wikipedia mirrors. I recommend deletion. Keeper | 76 | Disclaimer 22:42, 9 June 2008 (UTC)

  • Delete Non-notable. No reliable sources to speak of, either. Juliancolton Tropical Cyclone 23:15, 9 June 2008 (UTC)
  • Delete "The Fumble Rumble is the nickname given to one of the most stunning plays to end an American college football game." Unencyclopedic article. No reliable sources. Masterpiece2000 (talk) 03:05, 10 June 2008 (UTC)
  • Delete - no sources, and no mention in the Las Vegas Bowl article --T-rex 13:12, 10 June 2008 (UTC)
  • Note: This debate has been included in the list of American football-related deletion discussions. -- Fabrictramp | talk to me 13:36, 11 June 2008 (UTC)
