Audi quattro Cup

 * – ( View AfD View log  quattro Cup Stats )

For me it seems to fail WP:NSPORTS and WP:GNG with no real coverage of this event being played. Animation is developing 02:10, 31 August 2018 (UTC)

 * Delete - no evidence of notability. GiantSnowman 07:17, 31 August 2018 (UTC)
 * Keep The article name is normally associated with golf, not just football, the article needs completely rewritten.  . There is loads more in the web. Govvy (talk) 18:42, 31 August 2018 (UTC)
 * Comment - This was originally put as "2015 Audi quattro Cup" but I had renamed it as their was only ever one edition of this tournament. Animation is developing 23:40, 31 August 2018 (UTC)
 * Keep but need improving per Govvy so pass WP:GNG. But need do some cleanup Hhkohh (talk) 02:59, 1 September 2018 (UTC)
 * Delete None of Govvy's links looks like a reliable, indepedent source to me. They all reek of advertorializing, so I don't think the topic has been shown to pass WP:GNG just yet. The event has never been mentioned in any of the 4 top Austrian broadsheets, which is a NO GOOD, VERY BAD sign when it comes to Austrian sports events. (The Salzburger Nachrichten have an article about the golf thing but not the football thing.) Damvile (talk) 11:55, 1 September 2018 (UTC)
 * Reply Depends of your definition on reliable! The first citation I gave is a primary source from Audi, showing the history of the competition that's it's been going on since 1991 and that it's not just football but mainly a golf competition of the title provided. The next two sources are secondary sources from two car dealership companies which also support the competition, I don't know if there is a conflict of interest, but I really don't see a problem, as they are reporting about this amateur competition. It's been going on for years, depends how much research you want to do to build an article, there are a few local news services in a general google search. . I am only going to point out the facts that I see. People really need to do their own research and decide weather they feel this article should go or stay and not just rustle up an opinion on a few bits I write.

 * Reply Hm yes, I guess it does depend on the definition of reliable! A conflict of interest alone wouldn't necessarily bother me, it's just that these examples strike me as pretty openly promotional. It's primarily the tone, not the venue. They feel (to me) a lot like the PR material my own employer pays people money to print. If the competition is notable, then by definition there must be some reporting somewhere that doesn't have this problem. Damvile (talk) 15:58, 1 September 2018 (UTC)
 * The link you posted goes to an article about golf? Not football? Damvile (talk) 16:00, 1 September 2018 (UTC)
 * Reply Yes, the title for this article is wrong because Audi quattro Cup is also an golf tourney since 1991! The problem is that this is amateur golf, it won't get coverage like professional golf, the article is currently setup as a football competition which only happened once and was sponsored by two companies, the other being Red Bull. Do we want to cover this annual amateur competition on wikipedia, there maybe a lack of coverage by the high end news services. I have no qualms against deleting this, I just thought there was enough on the web to fix it to how it should be. And besides, there is no getting away from sponsorships these days, it's all over everything, so there is always going to be that promotional side of sports it's just a question of how we deal with it when we write an article.

 * Reply Haha, I did't read this carefully enough at first and I misunderstood you. Sorry. I'm not opposed to the golf article, but then again the golf article doesn't actually exist at this point and so isn't really subject of this discussion. If the football article gets deleted that doesn't mean a new article with a different topic can't be started in its place, so the hypothetical future golf article has nothing to worry about :) Damvile (talk) 16:18, 1 September 2018 (UTC)


 * Delete not a notable football event. If there's a notable golf tournament of the same name, an article about that can be re-created. power~enwiki ( π,  ν ) 03:41, 8 September 2018 (UTC)
 * Delete This is a non-notable football event only played once that didn't get significant coverage in Austrian media, only some promotional coverage from event sponsors. Definitely doesn't pass WP:GNG. Newshunter12 (talk) 10:31, 8 September 2018 (UTC)
