Galatasaray S.K. 9–2 Beşiktaş J.K.

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

A high-scoring match, but no evidence to show that it's notable in its own right. Ilikeeatingwaffles (talk) 18:44, 11 November 2013 (UTC)

 * Delete - no evidence of significant coverage in any reliable sources. GiantSnowman 13:26, 12 November 2013 (UTC)
 * Keep - it's notable. You can find similar articles. Nottingham Forest F.C. 1–8 Manchester United F.C.1886kusagi (talk) 14:54, 12 November 2013 (UTC)
 * If it is notable please add sources that meet WP:GNG because they are not in the article at present. FWIW the other match also has not had notability demonstrated yet. The Whispering Wind (talk) 22:53, 13 November 2013 (UTC)

 * Delete - the sources in the article are insufficient to meet WP:GNG. The Whispering Wind (talk) 16:53, 12 November 2013 (UTC)
 * Keep - it's clearly notable. LardoBalsamico (talk) 16:06, 13 November 2013 (UTC)
 * If it is notable please add sources that meet WP:GNG because they are not in the article at present. The Whispering Wind (talk) 22:53, 13 November 2013 (UTC)
 * Keep - Other examples of notable matches such as this exist, as mentioned earlier. Ithinkicahn (talk) 08:01, 16 November 2013 (UTC)
 * Other stuff exists is not a valid argument for keeping an article. Ilikeeatingwaffles (talk) 09:30, 16 November 2013 (UTC)


 * Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so a clearer consensus may be reached.

 * Delete - This match holds the record for being the highest-scoring match between Galatasaray and Besiktas, but that's about it. There is nothing to suggest that this match has any long-lasting notability outside those two clubs, and that's not enough to be kept here. The Nottingham Forest F.C. 1–8 Manchester United F.C. article mentioned above only exists because it holds the record as the biggest away win in Premier League history. – PeeJay 21:20, 18 November 2013 (UTC)
 * Comment - If the record for biggest Premier League away win were to be broken would it make the NFFC 1-8 MUFC game non-notable and an article that should be deleted? Ilikeeatingwaffles (talk) 16:34, 20 November 2013 (UTC)
 * Delete There's a very high bar for individual matches, and this doesn't pass it. Besides being a bad argument anyway, WP:OTHERSTUFF also supports deletion—see, for example, Articles for deletion/Tottenham Hotspur F.C. 9–1 Wigan Athletic F.C.. --BDD (talk) 17:28, 19 November 2013 (UTC)
 * Delete - Per above, this is not a record match per this for the top flight in Turkey. The biggest win is by ten goals and the highest scoring game contained 12 goals. This game contained only 11 and the margin of victory was only 7. A high-scoring game, but nonetheless not a record. No indication of significant wider discussion per GNG.
