1918 Alabama Crimson Tide football team

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

Alabama did not field a team in 1918, I don't see why an article is necessary when there is no such article for the 1898 season in which Alabama also did not field a team.

 *  Delete Merge to History of Alabama Crimson Tide football: Subject does not meet the WP:NSEASONS, per previous consensus we don't keep articles for teams which didn't play any games. Let&#39;srun (talk) 17:23, 9 May 2024 (UTC)
 *  Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.

 * Keep Alabama is one of the most important college football programs. Not sure where else this info would go. ~WikiOriginal-9~ ( talk ) 04:06, 16 May 2024 (UTC)
 * History of Alabama Crimson Tide football already says the team cancelled the season due to World War 1. There aren't (to my knowledge) articles for any other teams that didn't play any games. Gazingo (talk) 17:30, 16 May 2024 (UTC)
 * Note that [] and [] were deleted for the same rationale as is being presented here. Let&#39;srun (talk) 01:32, 17 May 2024 (UTC)
 * The two of you are the biggest contributors to this article. Thoughts on its notability? Cbl62 (talk) 09:52, 16 May 2024 (UTC)
 * Keep or Merge to History of Alabama Crimson Tide football and/or 1919 Alabama Crimson Tide football team. There's certainly detail here should should be kept on Wikipeda. Jweiss11 (talk) 17:49, 16 May 2024 (UTC)
 * What details in particular do you think need to be merged? History of Alabama Crimson Tide football already mentions that the team suspended play during the war. Let&#39;srun (talk) 01:34, 17 May 2024 (UTC)
 * All the details in article, like Noojin being appointed head coach, Moore as captain, the schedule that was never played. Jweiss11 (talk) 23:43, 17 May 2024 (UTC)
 * All of which can be covered in History of Alabama Crimson Tide football. Changing my vote to merge there. Let&#39;srun (talk) 16:03, 19 May 2024 (UTC)
 * Keep or Merge per Jweiss11. Cbl62 (talk) 19:33, 19 May 2024 (UTC)
 *  Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.


 * Merge to History of Alabama Crimson Tide football per the above as an WP:ATD. This standalone article only serves to mislead readers into thinking a season existed for this school, when it didn't. --MuZemike 11:29, 23 May 2024 (UTC)
