French Horse Racing Hall of Fame

 * – ( View AfD View log  •  Stats )

I and other members of Project:Horse Racing have been able to find no evidence for this institution's existence. The website of France Galop used to have a page called "Hall of Fame", but this was removed some time ago. All other on-line mentions appear to be WP mirrors.

 * Delete &mdash; By the looks of things, this article fails the general notability guideline. A Google search turns up no significant coverage from secondary sources, and even the text found on the relevant results was just copied from this article. I also note that there is a category that corresponds with this article; would anyone object to it being listed at CfD? Kurtis (talk) 11:26, 18 August 2012 (UTC)
 * No objections from me. Well-spotted.  Tigerboy1966   11:37, 18 August 2012 (UTC)


 * Note &mdash; Associated category listed at CfD here. Kurtis (talk) 13:47, 18 August 2012 (UTC)
 * Delete. I ran the dead link through Wayback and it goes to a 2007 France Galop page that looks like it is an informal "Hall of Fame" page with no official claims (ran it through Google Translate) . When France Galop restructured the site in 2008, they neglected to re-add the info so I think this can go. The "burned down in 1914" claim looks to be a possible IP vandalism entry that was uncaught for five years as the same IP user added this little interesting bit on the same day .
