Rugby threes

 * – ( View AfD View log  •  )

Minor variation of rugby football that seems to exist only in a few blogs on blogspot. No reliable sources to indicate this is anything other than something made up one day.

 * Delete As per nom. I've never heard of this and I would have a good knowledge of Rugby Gnevin (talk) 18:40, 23 February 2010 (UTC)
 * Keep Rugby 3x3 is played all around the world. Much more than underwater rugby, in wikipedia from 2006. User:Rugbier1972 — Rugbier1972 (talk&#32;• contribs) has made few or no other edits outside this topic.
 * If it is, can you provide some evidence of this please. (NB - not off blogs, they don't seem to cut it with some people. :--MacRusgail (talk) 17:50, 25 February 2010 (UTC)

 * Delete. I'd never heard of it and I cannot find any coverage of it either. In response to the above user, we do not generally judge things compared to what other topics are covered. (See WP:OTHERSTUFFEXISTS). Rather, we go by our policies such as notability and verifiability. In any case, a quick search brings up lots of information about underwater rugby, but nothing about rugby threes. Quantpole (talk) 12:04, 25 February 2010 (UTC)

 * Delete Hate to say it, but it's a delete for me too, as there just isn't a verifiable source. FruitMonkey (talk) 18:07, 27 February 2010 (UTC)
 * Keep we play Rugby 3x3 in Amsterdam. Its funny, interesting and even heavy sport if you play high level. Probably nobody who play Rugby 3x3 in the world we had thought to tell nothing about it on internet, because we just like to play it. But there are many lovely things in life that not appear in internet. That not means those things not exist. I think you would look for sources out of internet too, for example asking rugby clubs if rugby players play sometime Ruby threes and then youll have the real answer, not only looking for at google.com. Have a nice day and enjoy every kind of sports, not only mega-professional, mafia controlled "sports"like soccer, football and basketball.

 * Keep Tocata, Rugby Threes, Rugby 3x3 or how you want to call it, it's a fantastic rugby modality. Many years ago. Just enjoy it. [] peace&rugby  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 87.210.242.118 (talk) 11:58, 1 March 2010 (UTC)
 * Delete - even people who want to keep the article are basically admitting it's completely non-notable. When I was at school decades ago we invented two-a-side football (soccer) and played it very keenly for all of about a fortnight.  That wasn't notable, and neither is this -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 12:20, 1 March 2010 (UTC)
