List of Oregon Ducks Department of Athletics Awards

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Article fails WP:GNG, WP:RS, and WP:LISTN. This is merely listing department awards for the athletics department at the University of Oregon without any citations (let alone independent, verifiable, third party citations), other than the 2014 Oregon Football Almanac.

 * Pages 84 and 86 of the 2014 Oregon Football Almanac contain the titles, descriptions and history of the awards on this list. This list is obviously in its infancy and I am working on compiling other sources, as well as making tables that contain the history of players who have received these awards. I would definitely classify the almanac, published by the University of Oregon as verifiable. Below is an additional citation from that verifies the 2014 recipients of these awards.

 * These aren't independent of the subject and cannot be used as primary sources. Anyone who does a WP:BEFORE search will easily find these awards to be non-notable. Jrcla2 (talk) 03:02, 10 December 2014 (UTC)

 * Delete - Non-notable university athletic department awards. Subject does not satisfy the notability requirements of WP:GNG and WP:LISTN, with significant coverage in multiple, independent, reliable sources.  Dirtlawyer1 (talk) 04:52, 10 December 2014 (UTC)
 * Delete per Dirtlawyer, with an emphasis on the lack of independent sources. A university will give lots of attention to its own internal awards. The vast majority of the time (with limited exceptions), no one else pays much attention to these awards. That means that they are not notable by Wikipedia's standards.

 * Delete - After reading the policies cited above, as well as the arguments put forward, I am convinced that this subject does not merit an article. I do however believe this subject worthy of note and will incorporate it somehow as a section of the Oregon Ducks article the Oregon Ducks football article.

 * Delete. There is a lack of independent sourcing to verify that this grouping of awards satisfies WP:GNG or WP:LISTN. Cbl62 (talk) 16:49, 10 December 2014 (UTC)
 * Delete per above. Non-notable list of awards. — Joaquin008  ( talk ) 16:35, 12 December 2014 (UTC)
