Talk:Montreal Wanderers RFC

[Untitled][edit]

Reason for deletion notice removal:

While the content naturally differs, the page is similar to an already existing page: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Montreal_Irish_Rugby_Football_Club
As above, the page is similar in content to http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Westmount_Rugby_Club
Both of the clubs listed in points 1 and 2 are peers of the Montreal Wanderers RFC
The Montreal Wanderers are referenced on the Rugby Quebec page (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rugby_Quebec) as one of the original clubs of the FRQ (Federation de Rugby du Quebec) but was not hyperlinked to anything... whereas other clubs were hyperlined to their own wikipedia articles
The Castaway Wanderers, similar in name but with no association to the Montreal Wanderers, have a page located here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Castaway_Wanderers_RFC and seem to be doing just fine.

I would very much like to make the Wanderers page conform to Wiki guidelines, and I looked to the above-mentioned pages for guidance. If the Montreal Wanderers RFC page does not meet criteria that the above-mentioned pages do, could you please indicate it?

WP:OTHERSTUFFEXISTS is not a reason for this to exist. Wikipedia articles are required to be WP:notable with independent WP:reliable sources - if some do not comply with that they are open to being proposed for deletion themselves. noq (talk) 07:43, 20 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Hi noq - I have added content and sources to the page, please re-review and let me know what else (if anything) I need to do in order to have the "speedy deletion" notice removed. Chrispam.montreal (talk) 15:24, 20 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]

noq, I believe that this pages qualifies (for the Notability bit) based on the guidelines outlined here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject_Rugby_union#Notability_of_Club_Sides Chrispam.montreal (talk) 15:43, 20 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]
