Midlands University Snooker Championship

 * – (View AfD) (View log)

Article doesn't meet Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, because it is a regional championship, which isn't covered by reliable sources, as student papers aren't reliable sources. Armbrust (talk) 00:23, 2 December 2009 (UTC)
 * Delete: Inherently non-notable as a local students' get-together, nothing more. A UK-wide inter-collegiate championship might be another matter. —  SMcCandlish  &#91;talk&#93; &#91;cont&#93;  ‹(-¿-)› 00:56, 2 December 2009 (UTC)


 * Delete lacks reliable sources (only ones provided are written by the clubs themselves or are student newspapers, less than reliable sources) not finding much else. Limited to a handful of universities which is probably why significant coverage is not available. RadioFan (talk) 01:46, 2 December 2009 (UTC)
 * This AfD nomination was incomplete (missing step 3). It is listed now. DumbBOT (talk) 13:10, 2 December 2009 (UTC)


 * Delete. I wouldn't call student newspapers unreliable by definition, but this article should be deleted on other grounds. Sports competitions should only be listed if they're supported by the official organization of that sport or if they're international. This clearly doesn't qualify as the sort of event Wikipedia should cover. - Mgm|(talk) 10:15, 3 December 2009 (UTC)
