Archery at the 2015 ASEAN Para Games

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Unremarkable event, fails WP:Sports event Sportsfan 1234 (talk) 20:24, 20 January 2017 (UTC) Also adding the following for the same reasons:


 * Merge to 2015 ASEAN Para Games, which meets GNG as has multiple independent coverage. Results are relevant facts to store at that location. SFB 00:07, 21 January 2017 (UTC)
 * Keep. This is a critical intersection of two groups who are often victim to systemic bias, as both people with disabilities and people from specific regions (e.g., Southeast Asia) tend to be underrepresented, sometimes even shunned or actively victimized. These are international events, we can't possibly review each of these articles as a single AfD. The 2015 ASEAN Para Games were certainly notable, and covering the numerous sports in one article would be impractical. Much of the reporting is in various languages other than English, so our searches using the English language will find only a small minority of the coverage. What I have found is that there are numerous articles even in English that report specifically about the 2015 ASEAN Para Games, even having "ASEAN Para Games" in the headline. Jack N.

 * TRAINWRECK. My view is that each of these articles needs to be considered separately. These don't fall within the intentions of multiple AfD, and they don't bear similarity to the examples offered (a group of hoax articles by the same editor, a group of spam articles by the same editor, a series of articles on nearly identical manufactured products). These are not hoaxes, not spam, not marketing. Jack N. Stock (talk) 06:28, 23 January 2017 (UTC)

 * Keep (or merge into single results article if easier). This event has a significant impact upon the various disability sports in Southeast Asia and is its premier disability sports event. The population of this region is more than double that of the United States. SFB 20:56, 27 January 2017 (UTC)

 * Keep all The ASEAN Para Games is a large multisport event on a continental/regional level - just below the top-level Paralympic Games. It is pretty much standard practice for such events to be covered by a "main article" covering the games event as a whole and number of "sub-articles" about each of the sports. This avoids having all the detail stuffed into a single over long page. Roger (Dodger67) (talk) 05:34, 28 January 2017 (UTC)
 * Keep all By all accounts a significant event. Having separate pages allows us to present all valid info in the most appropriate format. Merging would be horrific, the article would be too long and difficult to navigate, locate required info. Referencing could be improved.....would like to see some independent sources. Article could be improved......would like to see more info where appropriate other than results. Rayman60 (talk) 05:45, 28 January 2017 (UTC)
