Not updated in two years.. insufficient context - nobody seems to care about it anyway - we can do without this article Werdna648T/C\@ 11:37, 19 March 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep gets 150,000 ghits.  There was enough context for me to know what it was talking about, but it could use cleanup.  kotepho 12:14, 19 March 2006 (UTC)
 * Comment Cleanup by whom? Somebody who cares about the article? How about every single person who has edited the article in the past eighteen months - nobody. Should be cleaned up before AfD debate closes. Werdna648T/C\@ 12:17, 19 March 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete &mdash; most Google hits are unrelated; topic is already described in slalom skiing. Feezo  (Talk) 13:01, 19 March 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep, sufficient context, and I cleaned it up a little. Delete as per Feezo, not original nom. &mdash; Kimchi.sg | Talk 13:27, 19 March 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep. Delete an article for being excessively stable? That's pretty silly. Monicasdude 13:45, 19 March 2006 (UTC)
 * keep Are we supposed to delete any article not updated in two years? I disagree with that Roodog2k 14:23, 19 March 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep per above, only Feezo's vote saves this from a speedy keep due to bad nomination (e.g. no real reason given for deletion). Turnstep 15:56, 19 March 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete as dicdef. Brian G. Crawford 16:43, 19 March 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep. What is the difference between this and say Category:Tennis_shots or Category:American football plays? Aren't all these sports techniques equally valuable? Not to mention that the references are impeccable and the nom has not given any valid reason for removal -- JJay 17:45, 19 March 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep Maybe the article says everything that needs to be known on the matter? Its not badly written, and providesexternal links. ImpuMozhi 19:40, 19 March 2006 (UTC)
 * Strong keep Notable sporting technique, per JJay. I added a stub tag (wintersport-stub) and changed the link to "slalom skiing" (over "slalom", because the slalom skiing article is much larger and this seems to be basically about skiing).  Also changed "racer" to "ski-racer" for contextualization purposes.  Bobby P. Smith Sr. Jr. 00:05, 20 March 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep Notable sport technique. Nigelthefish 16:05, 20 March 2006 (UTC)
