Great Public Schools Association of Queensland Inc. Rugby Premierships

 * – (View AfD) (View log)

List of winners of an amatuer school rugby competition. No relevance to any of the articles concerned, fails any sort of notability. Twenty Years 07:04, 10 October 2007 (UTC)


 * This is relevant to the page "Great Public Schools Association of Queensland Inc.", and is relevant to the associated pages to do with each school that is a member of Great Public Schools Association of Queensland Inc.. There is an equivalent page for the rowing competition of the Great Public Schools Association of Queensland Inc.: "Head of the River (Queensland)" already in existence that list the winners of this competition.

 * The head of the river is notable, this isnt. If you find reliable sources to back up all claims, ill change my vote to a keep. Twenty Years 08:23, 10 October 2007 (UTC)


 * The Book "T. Max Hawkins, The Queensland Great Public Schools - A History (Jacaranda Press, Brisbane, 1965)" contains history on the schools involved in the "Great Public Schools Association of Queensland Inc." and has a comprehensive list of the major inter-school sporting competitions from 1918 to 1964, one of which is Rugby; It lists the winners of the 1st XV competition for each year from 1918 through to 1964. The nine schools that are members of the "Great Public Schools Association of Queensland Inc.", Wikipedia pages and their actual websites will usually have some mention of the number of premierships they have attained, possibly even the years in which they attained them, Nudgee Listing the number and years on their website, as does the Anglican Church Grammar School, The Southport School, Brisbane Grammar School lists their number of premierships etc. St. Joseph's College, Gregory Terrace School Annuals, Sporting Programmes from 1992-1996 have extensive reports into the schools performance in Rugby. The websites/annuals/sports programmes are a reference for the results in the years 1965-2007. On review of the school's websites, it is obvious that within the members of the "Great Public Schools Association of Queensland Inc." There is an emphasis placed upon the performance of the school on the Rugby field in the GPS competition. It is also one of the sports that all nine schools compete in.

 * So it has been established that the Great Public Schools Association of Queensland Inc. is notable, not the list of rugby premierships. The schools websites are primary sources, and as such are not reliable sources. When you find an article written on/about the GPS Rugby competition, that may help your cause.

 * Fair enough point about the reliable sources, if I can find any articles written on or about the competition I will inform you. Njsalmon 16:00, 10 October 2007 (UTC)

 * Delete unremarkable event results, no assertion of notability. Note that the page as it is now violates Fair Use with the use of school logos(crests). Gnangarra 07:45, 10 October 2007 (UTC)


 * This might need WP:SALT. Twenty Years 14:45, 10 October 2007 (UTC)


 * Delete. There might be a case for an article on the competition itself providing that there are reliable sources for it. Capitalistroadster 02:53, 11 October 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete. Cruft, unencyclopedic. Keb25 00:46, 12 October 2007 (UTC)
