AADL GT

 * — (View AfD)

Event of local interest only. PROD tag removed by article creator with no further comment. FreplySpang 14:56, 4 December 2006 (UTC) This in no way can be considered an "extremely minor" event, since for one thing, we have already prvoen that in the article by stating the number of people who have attended these tournaments, and second of all, we have many members who come from at least an hour or more drive from Ann Arbor, from places such as Grand Rapids and Kalamazoo, which are quite long drives for something such as a gaming tournament, so there has to be a fair amount of significance to draw them here all they way from where they live. Also, for someone who has such awards and accolades from Wikipedia, I find your scathing sarcasm disappointingly low. Tcoveney 16:36, 4 December 2006 (UTC) If you compare this article to a bake sale then you should compare it to the first bake sale because that is what this is like. This event is seen and read about by many people and is therefore a significant contribution to Wikipedia.

 * Speedy delete extremely minor event at a local library. What's next, articles on the spring book sale, Fine Forgiveness Friday, and children's story hour? Andrew Lenahan -  St ar bli nd  15:50, 4 December 2006 (UTC)

 * Delete ridiculously written article about tournament. There's precedent for video game tournaments being non-notable as well (see Articles for deletion/MELEE-FC). Danny Lilithborne 21:12, 4 December 2006 (UTC)
