List of most watched sporting events in 2004

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

This is a one-off list created in 2005. You could argue that we should rather create similar lists for all other years, rather than deleting this, and if there is concensus for that I have nothing against it. But, as it stands, I question the notability of the list, and think Wikipedia would be better without it (we have similar lists at List of most watched television broadcasts but we could create an article on List of most watched sporting events. What do you think? Coin945 (talk) 15:54, 13 February 2013 (UTC)

 * Delete per WP:DISCRIMINATE. There should be a list of superlatives like these in the encyclopedia, but not on a per-year basis, and certainly not one that is completely unsourced. § FreeRangeFrog croak 03:35, 20 February 2013 (UTC)
