1993 Tour of Flanders

This happened a very long time ago, and I do not think it is a good article. ThatKongregateGuy (talk) 21:36, 2 June 2015 (UTC)


 * Keep:May I ask why this would be too long ago? The same article features in five other languages. Other projects have made articles of every single edition of this event, dating back to 1913. There are people working very hard to fill in the gaps of non-edited runnings of the race Dr.robin 21:54, 2 June 2015 (UTC)
 * Keep: 1993 was too long ago? This is clearly a notable event and series, and anyway WP:IDONTLIKEIT is not a valid deletion criteria. Crow  Caw  22:31, 2 June 2015 (UTC)
 * Speedy Keep With all due respect, a really bad nomination based on WP:IDONTLIKEIT. Passes WP:GNG and WP:NEVENT, plus if this gets deleted, so should almost every sports article about an event prior to 1993. Joseph2302 (talk) 23:16, 2 June 2015 (UTC)
 * Snow or speedy keep. Nominator has not advanced a substantial ground for termination, and on its face this was a notable race capable of sustaining an article. --Arxiloxos (talk) 00:28, 3 June 2015 (UTC)
