2012–13 Wycombe Boys AFC season

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Do Wikipedia editors think that a particular season played by the youth team of a 4th tier side, is encyclopedic, or not? WP:SALT. Please. Barney the barney barney (talk) 18:06, 15 May 2013 (UTC) Barney the barney barney (talk) 18:06, 15 May 2013 (UTC)

The team your on about is Wycombe Wanderers F.C are playing in League Two were as Wycombe Boys AFC play in the youth premier league and have down since the 2007-8 after winning at Wemberly against Bristol City Girls in the play-offs.Weareunited878 (talk) 18:30, 15 May 2013 (UTC)

 * Speedy delete as a hoax. Wycombe Boys playing against Bristol City Girls? John Terry scoring own goals in games against a youth team? Complete rubbish. Note also that the article's creator removed the deletion template from the article. Keresaspa

Can I make a very good point that the football pyramid expands where beyond the semi-Pro leagues and the youth premier league/division is the top league in the league I play in... I know Wycombe Boys arent as big as Manchester United or Chelsea but considing Nigel has kept them in the league since the 2007/08 season and got them into europe the following season.Weareunited878 (talk) 21:18, 15 May 2013 (UTC)

 * Delete No sources at all in article, and there are no reliable sources in . In reply to Weareunited, not all teams that exist qualify for an article in Wikipedia—only those that are notable by the standards of WP:ORG. —teb728 t c 07:00, 16 May 2013 (UTC)
 * Delete - even if there is a team with a name "Wycombe Boys AFC", the season article is definitely not notable. There is occassionally a discussion wether semi-pro teams should have separate season-articles on Wikipedia, but we can safely say that season-articles on amateur and youth-teams are not notable.

Wycombe Boys AFC arent just any team since the calapse of Wycombe Town in 2001 and formation of the wycombe boys they have climbed up the league before gaining promotion the 2006/07 seasonWeareunited878 (talk) 10:40, 16 May 2013 (UTC)
 * Delete - clearly non-notable. GiantSnowman 19:03, 16 May 2013 (UTC)
 * Delete - total made-up bollocks -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 20:26, 16 May 2013 (UTC)
 * Comment - thought this seemed a bit familiar - see Articles for deletion/2011–12 Youth Premier League -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 20:31, 16 May 2013 (UTC)
 * That suggests that Weareunited878 may be another sock of indefblocked LegandofThor2. —teb728 t c 04:44, 17 May 2013 (UTC)


 * Delete - No coverage in reliable sources to establish notability. — Joaquin008  ( talk ) 19:14, 17 May 2013 (UTC)

Save - The youth premier league isn't covered by any newspaper or sports channels like skysports or santanna sports but it is an offical league that has been running since 1800 In regards to the sockpuppet I AM NOT A FREAKIN SockpuppetWeareunited878 (talk) 19:32, 17 May 2013 (UTC)
 * If it isn't covered by any sources then by definition it is not notable, you have just made a perfect case for the deletion of your article -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 20:12, 17 May 2013 (UTC)
 * Oh, and by the way, "running since 1800"? When association football was not invented until 1863 and the first league in thw world not founded until 1888?  Erm, yeah right........ -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 20:12, 17 May 2013 (UTC)
 * Not to mention the notion that a sports league allegedly attracting crowds of up to 75,000 and more would attract no media coverage at all. At least try to make your hoaxes believable..... -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 13:20, 20 May 2013 (UTC)

'Valid Point'''- True note all football leagues are notable but remember not all leagues are telvised.... non-league and lower aren't and that includes local leagues including the youth/Athletic leagues I play in''' and we some do get mentions in local newspapers.Weareunited878 (talk) 23:16, 21 May 2013 (UTC)
 * Speedy delete as an obvious hoax. – PeeJay 11:01, 19 May 2013 (UTC)
 * Delete - per PeeJay. Clear hoax. Nonsense article. Fenix down (talk) 17:49, 19 May 2013 (UTC)
 * Delete - total made-up nonsense. Shame we waste time on such stuff. Egghead06 (talk) 03:17, 21 May 2013 (UTC)
 * Stop deleting other people's comments on this page as it is considered vandalism! Keresaspa (talk) 23:17, 21 May 2013 (UTC)
 * Nobody said anything about a league having to be televised to have an article on Wikipedia. However, I don't see how that is relevant to this discussion.  The league described in this article clearly doesn't exist.  I am sure you do play in a local youth league, but I can guarantee it doesn't involve games against Manchester United in front of 75000+ fans at Old Trafford.  Can we just close this AfD and delete this blatantly transparent hoax from WP......? -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 07:40, 22 May 2013 (UTC)

Why should this be deleted and forgotten about....as for the match against United it wasnt against the champions it was against their youth team that allows players from 15 upto 28Weareunited878 (talk) 12:48, 22 May 2013 (UTC)
 * Sorry, but that's just not true.......like everything else in the article..... -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 13:07, 22 May 2013 (UTC)
 * Speedy delete. Obvious hoax. Reason enough. Mdann52 (talk) 12:54, 22 May 2013 (UTC)

Fine bleedy delete it...... I will just recreate in more better23:10, 22 May 2013 (UTC)
