Montgomery Bowl

 * – ( View AfD View log | edits since nomination)

A one year name change for the Fenway Bowl. Can be sufficiently covered in that article and doesn't need its own page Esolo5002 (talk) 23:12, 14 November 2023 (UTC)


 * Keep. Good-faith proposal, but the Montgomery Bowl was not a name change of the Fenway Bowl, and does not belong in that article. It was created by organizers as a one-off bowl to fill a gap in the schedule of 2020–21 NCAA football bowl games—the description, as appears in the article, was a "substitute of the Fenway Bowl for this season only" (emphasis added by me). This article is not an outlier, as there are other examples of articles about bowl games that were only played once (e.g. Charity Bowl), and articles about bowl games that never got past the proposal phase (e.g. Haka Bowl).

 * Redirect to 2020 Montgomery Bowl One season aberration game and unlikely to have future editions (not that Montgomery will never host a bowl again but it won't just be named after the city).  Nate  • ( chatter ) 00:06, 15 November 2023 (UTC)

 * A single article seems reasonable, although my initial thought would be to merge the other way (place game detail currently found in 2020 Montgomery Bowl into Montgomery Bowl). Montgomery does have an active bowl, Camellia Bowl (2014–present), which is no small part of how the city ended up with the one-off bowl in question. Dmoore5556 (talk) 00:28, 15 November 2023 (UTC)


 * Redirect to 2020 Montgomery Bowl: we don't need two articles on a one-off bowl game, but the article on that one specific installment is a much better and less surprising redirect target than the game it was a "substitute" for. (And for the record, Montgomery is a current bowl game host: the Camellia Bowl has, since 2014, been played in the same stadium that also hosted the 2020 Montgomery Bowl, so there were two bowl games there in the 2020 season.)

 * For the record, I have no particular objection to any "consolidated" article being titled at simply Montgomery Bowl, though that might be more suited to a subsequent RM discussion than something that directly results from this AfD discussion.  WC  Quidditch  ☎   ✎  00:43, 15 November 2023 (UTC)
 * Redirect to the suggested target, as a WP:ATD. No independent notability for this subject to meet the WP:GNG. Let'srun (talk) 16:53, 18 November 2023 (UTC)
