The result was merge‎__EXPECTED_UNCONNECTED_PAGE__ to Michigan Tech Huskies football, 1920–1942. Yes, aware it's a redlink. However creation doesn't require continuing this discussion, which has stalled. Star  Mississippi  02:29, 3 June 2023 (UTC)

1924 Michigan Mines football team

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

Fails WP:GNG. This was a less-than-average season (three games played, zero wins), unsupported by WP:SIGCOV, and sourced solely to the school's web site. At best per WP:NSEASONS, this might be suitable for grouping as part of a "decade" article on the Michigan Mines football program in the 1920s. Cbl62 (talk) 17:19, 4 May 2023 (UTC)

I am also nominating the following related page because it relates to an equally less-than-average season is is also unsupported by SIGCOV.


 * For examples of season articles on the Michigan Mines/Tech football program that can and should be created, please see 1974 Michigan Tech Huskies football team (undefeated championship season). Season articles need to be supported by WP:SIGCOV in reliable, independent sources. Cbl62 (talk) 17:32, 4 May 2023 (UTC)
 * Perhaps a merger of all these early Michigan Mines/Tech football articles into something like Michigan Tech Huskies football, 1920–1942, a la Temple Owls football, 1900–1909, would be a better option than deletion? Jweiss11 (talk) 18:13, 4 May 2023 (UTC)
 * I am not opposed to some reasonable alternative to deletion, but keeping these as stand-alone articles does not appear to be viable. Cbl62 (talk) 18:22, 4 May 2023 (UTC)

 * I'd support a merger to Michigan Tech Huskies football, 1920–1942 like Jweiss suggested. BeanieFan11 (talk) 22:41, 26 May 2023 (UTC)
 * Also the last game wasn't played on November 7, 1924 because the result is already in a newspaper on sunday November 2, 1924 and also on monday November 3, 1924 with that exact result. Themanwithnowifi (talk) 09:10, 27 May 2023 (UTC)
 * Reply re "merge" proposal.    As noted above, I am not opposed to an alternative to deletion, but the proposed merger target doesn't exist. Does someone want to create and source Michigan Tech Huskies football, 1920–1942? Absent that, how is a closer supposed to agree to the "merge" proposal? Cbl62 (talk) 10:30, 27 May 2023 (UTC)
