Dunstable Downs Golf Club

Unremarkable club - the claims to notability are weak. No evidence that a notable competition has been held here. Biker Biker (talk) 17:58, 27 December 2012 (UTC)

Evidence was 2 seconds away, it hosted the British PGA Matchplay Championship (News of the World matchplay, plenty of sources to indicate notability.♦ Dr. ☠ Blofeld  18:16, 27 December 2012 (UTC)
 * Keep per the good doctor.  Automatic Strikeout  ( T •  C) 19:30, 27 December 2012 (UTC)
 * Keep satisfies WP:GNG due to three independent sources included. It does not matter if notable competitions are held there or not. Graeme Bartlett (talk) 07:24, 28 December 2012 (UTC)
 * I can see why Biker thinks he's doing cleanup duty but golf courses are very poorly covered on wikipedia and if you look on google maps form a major part of the United Kingdom around towns, I believe that most clubs are worthy of coverage and will have coverage in reliable publications whether its books or local newspapers. I consider them geographically, and in the case of the Wenvoe Castle club historically notable to the county. I think that if wikipedia is truly to be a comprehensive source we'd have decent articles on many golf courses in each county.♦ Dr. ☠ Blofeld  11:58, 28 December 2012 (UTC)
