2014–15 Holywell Town F.C. season

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Contested PROD. Per WP:NSEASONS team season articles should only be composed for those teams in top professional leagues. Unfortunately, this team plays considerably lower than could be considered a reasonable threshold by that guideline's criteria. Fenix down (talk) 13:58, 16 July 2014 (UTC)

Would it be possible to merge all the season pages of 2011-12, 2012-13, 2013-14 & 2014-15 into a single page which details the fixtures for the club or is this against the rules because the club is not a professional club? Clintoff (talk) 19:44, 16 July 2014 (UTC)
 * I would suggest not unfortunately on the grounds that the club play in what is in effect a very minor league in the grand scheme of things. Additionally, there is very little in the way of sourced prose in any of the articles, so an amalgamation of the four articles would be a major WP:NOTSTATS contravention imo. What would be preferable would be the creation of sourced prose (beyond routine match reporting) in the history section of the main club article t outline the key events, ensuring that the article, as far as possible does not fall foul of recentism.

 * Keep - the articles that should be challenged here are the existing season articles such as 2013–14 Holywell Town F.C. season, given they are well sourced, well written, and appear to meet WP:GNG. Trying to delete the article for the upcoming season seems the wrong place to start. Nfitz (talk) 23:12, 19 July 2014 (UTC)
 * Comment It's WP:TOOSOON.--Jersey92 (talk) 01:07, 20 July 2014 (UTC)
 * Comment - It's not well sourced at all per WP:V as all sources point to the club's own website. There is no indication that this season is being covered in any depth outside of non-routine match reporting. please provide details as to how the article meets GNG.

 * Delete I don't see how this individual season can be predicted to be significant enough for a stand alone article, and the team does not play at a high enough level for the season to have inherent notability. --kelapstick(bainuu) 11:19, 20 July 2014 (UTC)
