Hungary at the 1966 FIFA World Cup

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Per related discussions (see Articles for deletion/Iran at the 2006 FIFA World Cup (2nd nomination)). This is a WP:CONTENTFORK of 1966 FIFA World Cup qualification (UEFA), 1966 FIFA World Cup squads, and 1966 FIFA World Cup Group 3. There is no prose to make the argument that this was a particularly remarkable tournament for Hungary, because it wasn't. You'll see on Hungary national football team that it shares a paragraph with Euro 1964, such is the normality of Hungary reaching the quarter-finals.

There would be an argument for Hungary at the 1954 FIFA World Cup, as that Magical Magyars team is mentioned in just about every print book about the history of football, and some historians believe that the shock defeat to West Germany in the final led to civil disobedience and eventually the 1956 uprising. But the 1966 team, no lore and memories at all.

As I've said before, there are pages for countries at each Olympics, even Marshall Islands at the 2016 Summer Olympics, but even for the Marshall Islands that is an overview to cover three different sports – there is no Marshall Islands in Weightlifting at the 2016 Summer Olympics, for example.

 * Delete - unnecessary CONTENTFORK. GiantSnowman 15:35, 20 August 2018 (UTC)
 * Delete per nom - this is better off just being part of the main article at most instead of an uneccesary fork. Kirbanzo (talk) 15:48, 20 August 2018 (UTC)
 * Delete Agree with nominator and see this as an unnecessary content fork. Govvy (talk) 15:55, 20 August 2018 (UTC)

 * Delete I also agree that this is really just go to the Hungary at the FIFA World Cup and not have its own separate article. We might as well add Hungary at the 1978 FIFA World Cup, Hungary at the 1982 FIFA World Cup and Hungary at the 1986 FIFA World Cup to this list as well.

 * I agree with that but it might be better to nominate those in a different discussion. It would be unfair to throw them into a discussion which is already looking to be approaching a verdict. Harambe Walks (talk) 15:03, 22 August 2018 (UTC)
