Female Gridiron League of Queensland

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Non-notable sports league. No showing of notability in reliable external references. I would accept a redirect to Gridiron Queensland or Gridiron Australia, but the creator of the page has refused. Neutralitytalk 19:11, 3 September 2013 (UTC)


 * Keep. There are some secondary sources (newspaper stories) on the league and its teams. I think there's enough material out there to pull together one decent article on the league and its teams. —C.Fred (talk) 20:58, 3 September 2013 (UTC)


 * Keep. This league is the first ever women's American Football league in Australia and is sanctioned by Gridiron Queensland (GQ), Gridirion Australia (GA) and the International Federation of American Football (IFAF). As a result of this league starting last year, similiar leagues are starting in NSW, VIC and ACT in the next month or so, with this league being used as a template and acknowledged as the birthplace of women's Gridirion in Australia. Australia intends to sent a women's team to the next World Cup in 2017. To redirect to Gridiron Queensland we undermine the historical significance of the women's league by lumping them in with the men's league. Although sanctioned by GQ, this league is a completely separate league to the men's league. Every person involved in this league is proud of being a part of Australian sporting history.

 * Keep - The subject appears to meet WP:GNG given the sources in the article.  It probably isn't notable enough (yet) to have an article for each team or anything like that, but there does appear to be enough notability for an article on this league. - Aoidh (talk) 23:23, 4 September 2013 (UTC)
