1890–91 Kilmarnock F.C. season

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Per WP:NSEASONS. I believe this article along with 1889–90 Kilmarnock F.C. season, 1888–89 Kilmarnock F.C. season and so on until the 1884–85 Kilmarnock F.C. season, should be either deleted or merged with their respective Scottish Cup article eg. 1885–86 Scottish Cup. Sorry if this is a bit hard to understand. The talk page (User talk:Anythingtoget) of the creator gives evidence of other problematic season articles created by this user. Perhaps a case at ANI should be opened up? See also User talk:Anythingtoget. Cheers Willbb234Talk (please &#123;&#123;ping&#125;&#125; me in replies) 16:23, 30 December 2019 (UTC)

 * please clearly list all articles you have nominated for deletion here. GiantSnowman 21:41, 30 December 2019 (UTC)
 * 1884–85 Kilmarnock F.C. season, 1885–86 Kilmarnock F.C. season, 1886–87 Kilmarnock F.C. season, 1887–88 Kilmarnock F.C. season, 1888–89 Kilmarnock F.C. season, 1889–90 Kilmarnock F.C. season, 1890–91 Kilmarnock F.C. season (this last one is the article that the AfD is title off of).

 * no, I meant in-line with III of WP:BUNDLE (include it in bullet form in your original nomination so it's crystal clear to all from the beginning). Currently I suggest procedural keep given the way you have gone about this nomination. GiantSnowman 09:00, 31 December 2019 (UTC)
 * To make it easier for those participating in the discussion, it may be helpful to bundle all of them together into a single nomination I bundled this AfD out of courtesy to my fellow editors. I had no requiement to bundle, nor did I have a requirement to bundle it in a certain way. Willbb234Talk (please &#123;&#123;ping&#125;&#125; me in replies) 09:18, 31 December 2019 (UTC)
 * have you even read WP:BUNDLE? The instructions are clear - To bundle articles for deletion, follow these steps. It is not a suggestion, it is a request. You have failed to follow that, with negative connotations, and as such you will not get a supporting !vote from me (if you had done so then I likely would have !voted to delete or merge all). GiantSnowman 09:23, 31 December 2019 (UTC)
 * so now people can !vote keep if they don't agree with how someone has presented an AfD? Forget it, Willbb234Talk (please &#123;&#123;ping&#125;&#125; me in replies)
 * Yes, it's a procedural keep if the bundling was conducted improperly (as here) or inappropriately (such as too many articles). See eg this AFD and this AFD. GiantSnowman 11:18, 31 December 2019 (UTC)
 * those examples are invalid as they show an AfD where the bundled articles differ greatly from the primary article being AfDed. In this case, all articles bundled are very similar. Willbb234Talk (please &#123;&#123;ping&#125;&#125; me in replies) 12:28, 31 December 2019 (UTC)


 * Perhaps merge in a similar way to 1870s Rangers F.C. seasons? They are equally as notable and, if I'm right, they'd need to be playing in a domestic league for each individual article to pass WP:NSeasons on their own (not that there were any until 1890). Deleting them would set a precedent for similar articles at at Category:Scottish football clubs 1885–86 season for example (not that that would necessarily be a bad thing). I'd hazard cup winners/finalists would still be considered notable seasons but not many others given the lack of sourcing. Stevie fae Scotland (talk) 23:06, 30 December 2019 (UTC)
 * Merge I don't see the point of this AfD, WP:BEBOLD, just go a head and merge the articles together to form a new article to show that period for the history of the club. Govvy (talk) 13:26, 31 December 2019 (UTC)
