Galatasaray SK strip

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

PROD contested with rationale of "it's an interesting article, it deserves to be debated at least." However, 'interesting' does not equal 'notable'. There is a real lack of meaningful content here, and elements violate WP:NOTGALLERY. There is already a relevant section on the parent article - Galatasaray S.K. and I don't see why that cannot be improved/slightly expanded; there is no need for a separate article.

 * Delete - There is some interesting content here that could probably be sourced better, but even with better sourcing, I doubt that notability would be satisfied. – PeeJay 11:47, 4 January 2013 (UTC)
 * Delete - Not sure I agree with the WP:NOTGALLERY comment as this seems specifically to refer to articles that are just pictures, not text. However, the article is essentially taken word for word from this, which does not explcitly state that it has been released into the public domain and so should be deleted as WP:COPYVIO. In addition to being a copyvio, the document it comes from is taken from a blog / fan forum and so I would question it's reliability. There is potential that information in the article could be included in the actual Galatasaray article but it would need to be supported by additional sources, but at the moment, the copyvio status of this article is so major that it can't be merged as is.

There are similar articles Arsenal F.C. strip and Parma F.C. strip 1886kusagi (talk) 13:45, 4 January 2013 (UTC)
 * WP:OTHERSTUFFEXISTS. Depending on the outcome of this AfD I will nominate them for deletion as well. GiantSnowman 13:47, 4 January 2013 (UTC)


 * Delete I don't see any information that justifies a separate article outside of the parent. - Presidentman talk · contribs (Talkback) 15:06, 4 January 2013 (UTC)
 * Delete - the kit isn't notable in itself, the club is notable, and the club has the kit. Does not justify separate article. "What about X" comments do not support any decision to keep. WP:OTHERCRAPEXISTS. C 679 16:54, 4 January 2013 (UTC)
 * Delete - kit fails general notability guidlines. --Sue Rangell ✍ ✉ 22:32, 5 January 2013 (UTC)
 * Weak keep: There are articles such as Arsenal F.C. strip, Manchester City F.C. strip etc. Galatasaray is one of the oldest clubs in Turkey and I think there could be an article about the strip.--Rapsar (talk) 21:01, 6 January 2013 (UTC)
 * WP:OTHERCRAPEXISTS. I would imagine most of these similar articles are good candidates for deletion, too. C 679 08:43, 9 January 2013 (UTC)
 * Good point :) But I'm not telling if these article exist, this one should be exist too. I'm trying to tell that this article has a lot of content -like the others- and I think it deserves a seperate article -like the others.--Rapsar (talk) 08:53, 11 January 2013 (UTC)
