Esk Valley Evening League

 * – ( View AfD View log )

See previous discussions for Isle of Axholme Evening league and The George Marshall Cup.

The reference from Cricket Yorkshire is only a passing mention and all of the other references are from the league's own website. In searches, I can find nothing better than the league's own website and Facebook. I found nothing substantial in Google News, British Newspaper Archive or ProQuest. Repeating the searches as "Esk Valley League" still had no success and brought back results relating to football rather than cricket in most cases.

 * Delete it may exist, but it's a local league for non-notable teams. Doesn't pass WP:GNG. Joseph2302 (talk) 07:18, 17 October 2021 (UTC)
 * Dekete Per nom and Joseph2302's comments, a local league with non-notable teams. Fails cricket guidelines and WP:GNG. Rugbyfan22 (talk) 09:40, 17 October 2021 (UTC)
 * I can understand that it falls short of being of great significance. I was inspired by the article I read about Fryup playing in this rather obscure league. I wanted to know more and one way was to visualize the league activity this way. I guess as it caught my imagination, I thought it might capture others in a similar way. Sadly, not living in the region, and having no involvement with the league or any of the clubs, I'm unable to enquire further as to any printed material on the league. Maybe in time, articles will come to hand. However, if you'd prefer it to go, I can understand. (p.s. I've never used the discussion board before - I hope I'm doing it right.) — Preceding unsigned comment added by Cheekychives (talk • contribs)
 * thanks for your understanding of the situation. Since we can verify that the league exists, it's okay to mention it in a few relevant places (e.g. Glaisdale and Fryup) but a stand-alone article can be tricky to justify when the subject can't be proved to pass WP:GNG since Wikipedia is not an WP:INDISCRIMINATE collection of info. Thank you for the work that you have done so far on the project and please don't be discouraged by this deletion nomination, even if it does result in a deletion.
