List of Wellington Phoenix FC results

 * ( [ delete] ) – (View AfD) (View log)

Contested prod. Original concern was "Wikipedia is not a sports almanac. Furthermore, this information is already included in the club's 2007-08 season article." Prod was removed without explanation. – PeeJay 09:19, 5 May 2008 (UTC)
 * This discussion has been included in WikiProject Football's list of association football related deletions. – PeeJay 09:21, 5 May 2008 (UTC)


 * If you wish to delete this, then you can delete every other page about Football Records and previous results. Also, just because inof is listed elsewhere doesn't mean it should be deleted. Or else everypage on wikipedia can be deleted, as they're all made up of information from other sources. CipherPixel (talk) 09:25, 5 May 2008 (UTC)
 * A comprehensive list of one club's results is not appropriate. Such a list could become infinitely long, and so would have to be split into several smaller articles. Fortunately, we already have a natural split in that we have individual season articles. Check and mate. – PeeJay 09:37, 5 May 2008 (UTC)
 * Merge - There is information here not in the other article. - Shudde   talk  09:39, 5 May 2008 (UTC)
 * Not much though. Only the LA Galaxy game is missing from the 2007-08 season article. – PeeJay 09:50, 5 May 2008 (UTC)
 * That's something though, just don't want to lose that. So merge and redirect. After a couple of seasons a list can be started List of Wellington Phoenix seasons so everything is easy to access. - Shudde   talk  10:38, 5 May 2008 (UTC)
 * That's a plan right there. We've got a good system going here. – PeeJay 10:45, 5 May 2008 (UTC)
 * What a load of rubbish. Is Wikipedia not something you should be able to use to look up any number of things? You might as well nominate some of my other results pages i've started despite that information being damn near impossible to otherwise easily find on the internet.--IanRitchie (talk) 09:53, 5 May 2008 (UTC)
 * As I have already said, the information on this page is already listed in the club's 2007-08 season article, and I'm sure there will be a 2008-09 season article for the Wellington Phoenix, so any further results can go in there. There really is no need for this list. – PeeJay 10:21, 5 May 2008 (UTC)
 * And the harm in collating that information in one place?--IanRitchie (talk) 11:25, 5 May 2008 (UTC)
 * Such an article could end up being infinitely huge. It's not appropriate. – PeeJay 11:27, 5 May 2008 (UTC)
 * And?--IanRitchie (talk) 11:52, 5 May 2008 (UTC)
 * And now you're obviously just being petty because an article you created has been nominated for deletion. – PeeJay 12:03, 5 May 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete, Wikipedia is an encyclopedia and this is not encyclopedic. It has been established before. Punkmorten (talk) 13:47, 5 May 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete: I'm wholly at a loss to figure out the problem of the Keep proponents. This information is duplicated in its entirety in the appropriate season articles, and those articles are linked from the Phoenix's article.  Is there a WP:IWROTEIT essay?    RGTraynor  13:54, 5 May 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete per Punkmorten. пﮟოьεԻ   5  7  16:33, 5 May 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete per Punkmorten and WP:INDISCRIMINATE. JohnCD (talk) 21:26, 5 May 2008 (UTC)
 * Merge After one season there is nothing here that is not already in the Season page. Mattlore (talk) 07:44, 6 May 2008 (UTC)
 * Comment - To everyone who has suggested that the two articles be merged: are you suggesting that the articles be merged and then this one deleted, or should this article become a redirect to some other page? I would recommend the former. – PeeJay 07:55, 6 May 2008 (UTC)
 * There's nothing to merge anyway, is there........? ChrisTheDude (talk) 08:00, 6 May 2008 (UTC)
 * The Wellington Phoenix season 2007-08 page doesn't mention 'the Beckham game' - which it probably should no matter if this page is deleted or not Mattlore (talk) 08:13, 6 May 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete, Wikipedia is not a sports almanack. Stifle (talk) 21:16, 6 May 2008 (UTC)
 * Comment - I have now added the match against Los Angeles Galaxy to the 2007-08 season article, so now the two articles are exactly the same except for their structure. – PeeJay 18:30, 7 May 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete the article - a non-notable list of match results. Information, however, could be merged to the corresponding article before deletion, if necessary.   A R  TYOM    10:32, 8 May 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete - I oppose virtually almost all nominations for deletion, but this is really just information that doesn't belong on wikipedia, althrough it could be merged in some form or another. Lord Cornwallis (talk) 00:39, 10 May 2008 (UTC)
