 * Delete as I could not actually figure out what this article was about well enough to prove or disprove notability. (It's a team, a collection of teams or a type of basketball?) ~ Excesses ~  (talk) 16:03, 20 April 2009 (UTC)
 * Comment It's supposed to be about the basketball teams at Elon University, although the first two paragraphs of the article are about the school's athletics program in general. Elon's basketball teams are in Division 1, and there's no shortage of independent coverage available, so there is something worthwhile here. The article needs some polishing, and perhaps a more clearly defined scope, but I'd be willing to give the editor a little time to work on it. Zagalejo^^^ 18:43, 20 April 2009 (UTC)
 * Sounds fair to me. Sillyfolkboy (talk) (edits) 00:06, 21 April 2009 (UTC)
 * I agree - I think the article needs some cleanup, but based on the information that is available, it merits being kept. Mandermagic (talk) 00:03, 23 April 2009 (UTC)

 * Keep and rename to Elon Phoenix men's basketball to follow standard college basketball naming conventions. matt91486 (talk) 15:53, 8 May 2009 (UTC)
