FA Cup 2002-03

 * ( [ delete] ) – (View AfD) (View log)

Two sentences regarding results of one year's FA Cup. Merge (if not already in main FA Cup article) and delete.  - Jameson L. Tai  talk  ♦  contribs   12:01, 8 March 2008 (UTC)  - Jameson L. Tai   talk  ♦  contribs   12:01, 8 March 2008 (UTC)
 * Keep and expand. AfD isn't cleanup - no need to delete an admittedly stubby article on a notable sporting event (presumably part of compiling all Template:FA Cup Seasons). --Canley (talk) 12:21, 8 March 2008 (UTC)
 * This discussion has been included in WikiProject Football's list of association football related deletions. Canley (talk) 12:24, 8 March 2008 (UTC)
 * Keep and expand per Canley.   A R  TYOM    12:37, 8 March 2008 (UTC)
 * Keep, this is a highly notable competition. If an article about it has this little content, it should be expanded. That's where the English football task force comes in. A  ecis Brievenbus 12:45, 8 March 2008 (UTC)
 * Keep - this is part of a series needed to give the full history of the FA Cup - the article needs expansion, but that is not grounds for deletion.  Daemonic Kangaroo (talk) 12:53, 8 March 2008 (UTC)
 * Keep - per comments above, can be expanded. John Hayestalk 13:02, 8 March 2008 (UTC)
 * Keep - per Canley and Daemonic Kangaroo. robwingfield «T•C» 13:13, 8 March 2008 (UTC)
 * Keep - the article clearly needs expanding, not deleting! GiantSnowman (talk) 13:38, 8 March 2008 (UTC)
 * Keep - There is a difference between need for expansion and need for deletion. αѕєηιηє t/c 14:39, 8 March 2008 (UTC)
 * Keep. Wikipedia development is built on going from stub to FA. Deletion is destructive since there could be a well-written and well-sourced article here. --Oldak Quill 16:29, 8 March 2008 (UTC)
