Proposed deletion of Shoe golf


The article Shoe golf has been proposed for deletion&#32; because of the following concern:
 * I am sure some people do do this but it is not a notable sport or phenomenon. There is nothing encyclopaedic to say about it.

While all contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion.

Shoe golf
Hi Mark. I am normally happy to sandbox deleted articles for editors to work on, but in this case there is little point. The article has been deleted three times before. The initial deletion discussion found that it was not notabable, and subsequent speedy deletions confirmed that. The fact that it is a real game does not make it notable. Greasy Watermelon has no article, and I'll probably delete Yolf after posting this since it is not available and relied on sales sites for its references. If you can provide independent verifiable sources that shoe golf is truly notable within the Wikipedia definition, I will, of course, reconsider   Jimfbleak  -  talk to me?  05:44, 9 September 2011 (UTC)
