Batty ball

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Non-notable game. Fails WP:GNG with no significant and independent coverage from reliable sources (see Google News search and Google News Archive search).  Ol Yeller21 Talktome  23:01, 21 December 2012 (UTC)
 * Delete. A fairly obvious hoax... I have a fairly strong suspicion that Aston Crawley is the same who created this article. Clearly not "played in most countries," and the world rankings are the same three names over and over again. In my book it falls just shy of G3 (vandalism).
 * On an unrelated note, in the spirit of fairness, I've attempted to facilitate a page move that Aston had accomplished through copy-and-paste, by tagging Battyball for G6 (maintenance) deletion so that Batty ball can be moved there. This is simply because, inasmuch as this sport exists at all, it exists without a space. If the move is carried out before this AfD is concluded, I'll handle any necessary AfD-redirecting. — Francophonie &#38; Androphilie  ( Je vous invite à me parler  ) 23:14, 21 December 2012 (UTC)
 * Whoops. I should have checked for it being a hoax.  The article has been deleted so I'll close the AfD (unless the deleting admin closes it).  Ol Yeller21  Talktome  03:14, 22 December 2012 (UTC)
