Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Day-by-day summaries of the 2011 Australian Open (2nd nomination)


 * The following discussion is an archived debate of the proposed deletion of the article below. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page (such as the article's talk page or in a deletion review).  No further edits should be made to this page.

The result was   No consensus. While there is little comment here the issue has been open for an extended period and has previously been discussed at length. Seems to be a consensus that such material is routinely included, but a lack of consensus over whether splitting it out to a sub-article is proper. In the absence of consensus the sub-article is retained as is. CBD 12:06, 8 June 2011 (UTC)

Not encyclopedic as it is not indepth and worth while. It is also list cruft as it serves no purpose and doesn't add anything to the project and Wikipedia is not the news 400 not out (talk) 13:38, 23 May 2011 (UTC)

Keep - This was already discussed recently and I see no reason to do it again. Consensus here was to merge the entire thing into the 2011 Australian Open page. Essentially to keep it. But no one talked to the editors at the 2011 Australian open page first and they wanted a separate page. So it remains because of a very recent decision. The editor who plopped the afd template on the page today is jumping the gun because he is in an edit war on several pages and wanted to take it to another level. That's never a good reason to nominate. I never thought the day by days were great pages but on occasion I use them. Fyunck(click) (talk) 18:49, 23 May 2011 (UTC)
 * Actually now that I look at it this AfD was brought about by a sockpuppet and banned user. User:400_not_out. Can an administrator look and perhaps delete this AfD and remove the banner from the title page? I don't want to overstep my bounds on wiki protocol and remove the banner myself. Thanks.
