1876 Women's Tennis Tour

 * – ( View AfD View log | edits since nomination)

I can't seem to find any evidence for a concept like the 1876 women's tennis tour. I don't doubt that these two tournaments existed, but there seems to be nothing that links them; no common organisation, no general classification, nothing. And they don't seem to be grouped as such by later sources either. If true, then this article should either be deleted (as Wikipedia should not be creating such artificial groupings, e.g. the "womens amateur tour" from the first line of the lead section seems to be a new invention from this article as well), or completely reformed and moved to 1876 in women's tennis or something similar. E.g. this source used in the article supports the underlying existence of the 2 tournaments, but not a "Tennis Tour" or "Amateur Tour". Fram (talk) 15:39, 13 October 2022 (UTC)

 * I am happy comprise with moving the two articles to either 1876 in tennis and 1877 in tennis as per these articles already exisiting 1929 in tennis, 1930 in tennis 1931 in tennis, my preference would be 1876 Women's tennis 1877 Women's tennis as the later would be inline with keeping mens and womens tennis years tours seperate per Wikipedia:WikiProject Tennis. However from 1913 the International Lawn Tennis Federation was responsible for supervising a global tennis tour through its member associations. --Navops47 (talk) 17:03, 13 October 2022 (UTC)
 * 1870s in tennis may also be an option if there isn't enough content to split across multiple articles. Curbon7 (talk) 18:51, 13 October 2022 (UTC)
 *  Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
 * I would move the content from both articles to 1876 in tennis and 1877 in tennis, respectively, for example here: year in tennis. I propose moving the content and deleting the 2 pages as not notable nor verifiable and they have very little content to qualify as a Draft, not an article.

 * Repurpose and reconstruct as 1876 in Women's tennis. I note that even 1876 in Tennis does not have siblings before 1929-31 and then no more until about 1970.  The events described in the article are potentially notable as the first international tennis event for women (if it was), but this is amateur sport, for which we do not normally allow WP articles.

 * Move to 1876 in Women's tennis and 1877 in Women's tennis, and restructure the article accordingly. Also, weed out any un-verifiable content and original research/synthesis.4meter4 (talk) 01:13, 4 November 2022 (UTC)
