Beverly–Salem Thanksgiving Rivalry

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

The subject is a non-notable HIGH SCHOOL sports rivalry that fails the specific notability guidelines of WP:SPORTSEVENT and WP:NRIVALRY, as well as the general notability guidelines of WP:GNG. As editors who are familiar with our sports and events notability guidelines should be aware, we err on the side of NOT including high school athletes, sports teams, events and rivalries in Wikipedia because they are of extremely limited interest to our readers, and are usually heavily dependent on local and non-independent sources for documentation. This particular article has no reliable sources per WP:RS and WP:GNG. Notable rivalry series should generate substantial coverage over time to satisfy GNG, and high school sports rivalries should be held to that standard with no benefit of the doubt.

 * Redirect: to List of high school football rivalries more than 100 years old, which already includes the series.   Ravenswing   00:49, 8 July 2014 (UTC)
 * Redirect: to List of high school football rivalries more than 100 years old. No evidence that this rivalry has received enough coverage for a stand alone article. --Hirolovesswords (talk) 01:52, 8 July 2014 (UTC)
