The result was redirect‎__EXPECTED_UNCONNECTED_PAGE__ to 2016 CBA Playoffs. Seems like a highly unlikely search term but I'm just here to carry out the consensus. ;-) Liz Read! Talk! 00:49, 15 June 2024 (UTC)

Liaoning Flying Leopards–Sichuan Blue Whales brawl

Neutral nom on behalf of an IP who stated: Zhanghang0704 only ever made 6 edits, all over the course of 3 days in late March 2016: the creation of this article, 4 more edits to it, and an edit to Liaoning Flying Leopards. I believe this article is a blatant violation of WP:NOTNEWS, as the brawl (which happened 5 days before this article's creation) does not appear to have sustained coverage - to say nothing of the article itself being extremely barebones despite a whopping 9 references.

 * Delete: WP:NOTNEWS applies here with a complete lack of sustained coverage, to say nothing of the WP:NPOV issues and the fact of the article being created by a SPA. Let&#39;srun (talk) 01:01, 8 June 2024 (UTC)


 * Delete Violates WP:NOTNEWS and hardly notable. ADifferentMan (talk) 02:13, 8 June 2024 (UTC)

 * Redirect to 2016 CBA Playoffs (with the history preserved under the redirect) per Deletion policy. 2016 CBA Playoffs already mentions this brawl. A redirect with the history preserved under the redirect will allow editors to selectively merge any content that can be reliably sourced to the target article. A redirect with the history preserved under the redirect will allow the redirect to be undone if significant coverage in reliable sources is found in the future.
