Arsenal F.C. and Manchester United football rivalry

 * – (View AfD) (View log)

Non-notable topic for article. Information in this article can be put into the articles on the teams mentioned themselves. Captain  panda  01:32, 8 September 2007 (UTC)
 * Strong keep The word "non-notable" is very wrong - definity wrong. The rivalry between two teams was a legend. For example, 21 players in the ground fought each other in a match. I think all of you should know the news. The news could not be put in the article, because it making too long. However, the article is in starting-rate, so your request should be a vandalism.

 * Speedy Delete under A1 The subject may be notable (I won't argue that - to clarify, I believe it is notable), but can be included in both articles already existing on the teams. As the article currently exists, it provides absolutely no information and would require a tremendous expansion to merit inclusion. Hers fold  (t/a/c) 01:55, 8 September 2007 (UTC)
 * I am still doing it - in no time. This is why I made a request of development in the project. Have to wait then. Raymond Giggs 02:06, 8 September 2007 (UTC)
 * "R. Giggs"? Interesting coincidence... Grutness...wha?  02:32, 8 September 2007 (UTC)
 * WP:CSD as rephrasing of title would probably be more appropriate. KTC 06:33, 8 September 2007 (UTC)


 * As presently constructed, Merge with team pages. If expanded to be like to anything like this or this, Keep.Patken4 02:10, 8 September 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete I can tell this article's going to be a mess if it gets any longer. That aside, as stated above, a mention in each club's article suffices. - Dudesleeper · Talk 02:24, 8 September 2007 (UTC)
 * Per Patken - Keep if expanded into something reasonable, which IMO is quite likely to be possible, given the two other pages cited - and yes, it's a very notable rivalry. If there's no sign that is can or will happen, then merge to the pages on the Mighty Gunners and the Scum the two clubs. Grutness...wha?  02:32, 8 September 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete - these things come and go due to various factors. There's no reason to create an article about a so-called "rivalry" between two teams in a 20-team league, other than local derbies. Also, this article has no real content (speediable?), would be a complete POV-magnet, and would at the very least need to be renamed to either make both clubs names' "F.C." or neither. - fchd 06:10, 8 September 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete At present, content is merely rephrasing of title -- Anonymous Dissident  Talk 06:41, 8 September 2007 (UTC)
