Clean sheet

 * ( [ delete] ) – (View AfD) (View log)

Article gives nothing more than a definition of the term 'clean sheet.' No notability is asserted or established; page has been tagged 'unreferenced' for more than a year; two 'references' do nothing more than establish that the term exists (which was never in doubt) Drmies (talk) 04:11, 27 December 2008 (UTC)
 * DeleteJust a dictionary item. It could be mentioned in football strategy.Steve Dufour (talk) 05:20, 27 December 2008 (UTC)
 * This discussion has been included in WikiProject Football's list of association football related deletions. Jmorrison230582 (talk) 13:26, 27 December 2008 (UTC)
 * Keep an important term in football terminology. The article needs improving & sourcing, not deleting. GiantSnowman 16:46, 27 December 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete or merge Its not enough to have it on it's own. We use to have Football (soccer) terminology but that must of been deleted and redirected to Association football. There is very little of what you can add to a page which is just about a clean sheet. Govvy (talk) 17:46, 27 December 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete as wikionary has a much better and shorter decrisption of this. Plus, this article is basically a longer version of the linked dict term. --Numyht (talk) 21:02, 27 December 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete - just a football slang term of no real encyclopaedic notability. - fchd (talk) 16:40, 28 December 2008 (UTC)
 * Merge/Redirect to Shutout - no use having different articles on the same subject. The shutout article even accounts for the term already. matt91486 (talk) 19:02, 28 December 2008 (UTC)
 * Merge any useful content to Shutout, and then redirect to the same article in order to comply with the GFDL. – PeeJay 22:41, 28 December 2008 (UTC)
 * Merge/Redirect - To Shutout, doesn't warrant an article specifically for usage in soccer. Sunderland06  (talk) 04:33, 30 December 2008 (UTC)
