Jaffery Sports Club

 * – ( View AfD View log )

"contest deletion - this campaign to eradicate our coverage of cricket in Kenya is starting to get disruptive" - quite the contrary, just because you feel it is "disruptive" isn't an adequate reason to contest. You seem confused on this one. There are two Jaffery Sports Clubs in Kenya. One in Nairobi, which is notable. This one which you claim is notable and claim held WCL Division matches (it did not) is completely non-notable and fails WP:CLUB, WP:GNG, WP:SPORT. Those are the policies I go by, not your personal opinion. AssociateAffiliate (talk) 21:36, 18 October 2011 (UTC)
 * Comment - if you need convincing here is Jaffery Sports Club in Mombasa. Here are the two matches held at the ground, one in 1986 and 1993. Here is the Jaffery Sports Club in Nairobi. Here are the 2007 ICC World Cricket League Division One matches played there.  A search for sources which imply notability pretty much turns up trumps.

 * Delete per nominator. The article has apparently been created in error because of confusion over two clubs with the same name. As the CricketArchive evidence proves, it is the Nairobi-based club that meets WP:Notability. This one in Mombasa unfortunately does not.  Jack | talk page 14:29, 23 October 2011 (UTC)
