Proposed New England Revolution South Boston stadium

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

While the proposal has been covered in independent secondary reliable sources, "speculation and rumor, even from reliable sources, are not appropriate encyclopedic content". It is too soon to for it to have its own article, as it has not received coverage outside of a brief news cycle (All of the reliable sources I could find were from November 18 and November 19). Although the proposal may eventually receive enough coverage to warrant an article, Wikipedia does not predict the future. Hirolovesswords (talk) 06:21, 23 December 2014 (UTC)

 * Delete - WP:CRYSTAL; this has no information and no notability. GiantSnowman 11:40, 23 December 2014 (UTC)
 * Delete. This article is pure speculation, and there is nothing to indicate why this stadium is currently notable. If it is built sometime in the future and happens to receive widespread coverage, perhaps the article can be recreated. -- Biblio worm  17:15, 23 December 2014 (UTC)
 * Delete: Way to early and no official word yet from the Kraft family. --ArsenalFan700 (talk) 20:53, 24 December 2014 (UTC)
 * Delete a clear cut case of WP:CRYSTAL. The thing doesn't even have a name yet.  08:54, 25 December 2014 (UTC)
 * Delete - If the stadium had actually been greenlit, this article would have some merit, but it's merely been proposed, and we can't very well have articles for stadia that are merely proposed, can we? – PeeJay 23:51, 26 December 2014 (UTC)
 * Merge There is no reason that this information cannot be merged into an article on the team itself, and split back out at a later date if it is ever built. We have many proposed stadium articles, but many of them have a wide-range of sources. Kevin Rutherford (talk) 14:56, 27 December 2014 (UTC)
