Deadly Rival Roller Derby

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Non-notable local roller derby squad. 26,000 Google hits, but none of them seem very good. HangingCurveSwing for the fence 03:12, 19 October 2013 (UTC)

 * Keep - Hmmm, I'm seeing 26+k Google hits for the exact phrase to choose from. Passes GNG. For example, THIS is from the Pinellas Park Beacon via the Tampa Bay Newspapers website. VIDEO from Tampa Bay Fox-13TV covering the league's skater recruitment. WFLA-Channel 8 on the Junior division of Deadly Rival Roller Derby. Copious ongoing coverage via Examiner.com — a site with blacklisted links on WP so I won't try, but suitable for helping research and document a more developed article... Note that this is a league, not a team. Carrite (talk) 18:18, 19 October 2013 (UTC)
 * Comment. A "league" with two teams, garnering local coverage only. Clarityfiend (talk) 22:09, 19 October 2013 (UTC)
 * At a certain point a major metropolitan area transcends "local coverage", and WP:PERSISTENCE past a certain point overcomes that as well. - The Bushranger One ping only 23:27, 19 October 2013 (UTC)
 * Comment - in roller derby, the term league refers to a local organisation with one or more teams, rarely more than four; having two (or even one) is not unusual and does not indicate anything about the league's notability. Warofdreams talk 01:33, 22 October 2013 (UTC)
