Proposed deletion of Sports overruns


The article Sports overruns has been proposed for deletion&#32; because of the following concern:
 * WP:NEOLOGISM. This term is definitely used, but there are no secondary, reliable sources that talk about the use of this term.

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.
