FSU Cowgirls

 * – ( View AfD View log  •  )

No significant coverage in third-party reliable sources to establish notability. Google news archives brings back trivia mentions related to Sterger. CutOffTies (talk) 11:14, 9 October 2010 (UTC)


 * Delete: Does not seem to meet WP:ORG. Also the lack of references in the history section makes even WP:GNG doubtful -- BenTels (talk) 13:06, 9 October 2010 (UTC)


 * Strong Keep: Seems notable to me, and ties in with the history of the Florida State Seminoles which are a major D1 athletic program. NorwalkJames (talk) 13:23, 9 October 2010 (UTC)
 * Delete lacks significant indepth coverage. gnews includes some passing mentions . LibStar (talk) 14:05, 9 October 2010 (UTC)
 * Keep If Wikipedia can have articles on once-a-year intercollegiate rivalries, its not unreasonable to have articles on student organizations of those colleges. Vince220 (talk) 17:59, 9 October 2010 (UTC)
 * That is not at all a reasonable argument, those are totally different things. Rivalries are major affairs, many covered nationally, that bring in thousands of fans and tons of money. They have significant outside media coverage from unbiased and respectable sources. Most student groups, barring some sort of controversy, never get significant outside coverage. In this case, the sources are mostly internal, which presents conflicts of interest. Discarding the bad sources, there isn't enough left to establish notability.

 * Delete All the sources have COI issues except for one from Maxim, which by itself fails to establish notability. Sven Manguard  Talk  21:10, 9 October 2010 (UTC)

 * Delete Non-notable, insignificant coverage to pass WP:GNG. The Keep rationales are baffiling.  Grsz 11  00:24, 10 October 2010 (UTC)
 * Delete among many other things, Wikipedia is not your college yearbook. As to other items, fails WP:GNG, is not "widely regarded" in any way, and is only a local event/group.  Try another wiki.--Paul McDonald (talk) 04:22, 10 October 2010 (UTC)
 * Delete Definitely a BIO1E, possibly a BLP1E depending on whether the original trio meet WP:WIALPI or not. The Maxim ref doesn't appear to be currently active, which was about the only RS alleged. Jclemens (talk) 04:39, 10 October 2010 (UTC)
