List of college football stadium video boards

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

This used to be a list of the largest such boards; now it's just a list of all these boards--yes, TV screens in football stadiums. The topic itself strikes me as fairly trivial given that just about every stadium has one (we could also list bathrooms or elevators), and a list of them is even trivialer. The sourcing doesn't add to the notability of the subject of the article: it's mostly primary sourcing, linking the stadium's website or some such thing. This is nothing more than cruft, I'm afraid--though I am happy to see that Auburn is number one in something. Drmies (talk) 02:03, 22 June 2016 (UTC)
 * Delete We don't have this for NFL, MLB or NHL/NBA venues outside of sourced mentions in individual venue articles; well-sourced on first glance, but pretty much all leads back to each glory page on the scoreboard manufacturer's website (Daktronics being most prominent here). Reduce it to the top 20 largest and this might make more sense, but listing every NCAA venue with a tri-color LED screen is a bit way too much.  Nate  • ( chatter ) 09:33, 22 June 2016 (UTC)

 * Delete I was actually considering nominating this list for deletion a while ago but I agree with you. I don't see the point of listing EVERY single video board in college football. The only point to schools having such big video boards is to say that they have the biggest.  Jay  Jay What did I do? 22:45, 23 June 2016 (UTC)
