Scotland national football team - Forthcoming fixtures

 * – (View AfD) (View log)

Contested prod. Wikipedia is not an events guide/directory. A simple upcoming fixtures section can be maintained in the National Team article if needed. However, as an important extra, all fixtures issued by the Scottish FA are subject to copyright and this may be a speedy. Nuttah68 (talk) 18:42, 17 November 2007 (UTC)

 * Delete for uselessness. Lexicon (talk) 21:28, 17 November 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete The only event listed, even if it were of encyclopaedic value, is now passed. Thus it has no meaningful content.  Kevin McE (talk) 21:48, 17 November 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete - per nom. Add a section to the Scotland national football team article with recent results and future (confirmed) fixtures. GiantSnowman (talk) 21:49, 17 November 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete Per nom & NOT a TV/Radio guide for single events. SkierRMH (talk) 00:02, 18 November 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete Forthcoming fixtures should be on the main Scotland national football team site but without the TV/Radio guide. Peanut4 (talk) 13:03, 18 November 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete But forthcoming fixtures should not be merged into the main Scotland team article, especially not when it's an FA. The article reflects the history of the team, it's not a directory. HornetMike (talk) 13:44, 18 November 2007 (UTC)
 * Strong Keep I can't understand why you would complain about an article which serves a perfectly good purpose. Just because there are no fixtures scheduled at the moment does not mean it should be deleted, once the schedule has been announced for the 2010 World cup there will be a long list of fixtures, 10 or 12 in fact plus friendly matches. Despite what others say I think it is important to state which broadcaster has the rights to screen the match live but not the time their coverage etc.Darryl.matheson (talk) 22:13, 18 November 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete Wikipedia is not a TV/radio guide. --Angelo (talk) 23:16, 18 November 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete-It was not much useful list as there are not much information and I propose to add a section for it to Scotland Football Team--Quek157 (talk) 09:19, 19 November 2007 (UTC)
 * Keep Good article, serves a purpose. Obvisiously get rid off media coverage section for future matches though. Not much info now but their will be in future 88.111.129.142 (talk) 15:44, 19 November 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete - This page would need to be constantly maintained. At present it has no valid content.  WP should not be used as an events guide: that is not encyclopaedic.  If such material should appear in WP at all, it should be a section in the main article on the team, not a separate forked article.  Peterkingiron (talk) 22:46, 19 November 2007 (UTC)
 * Okay lets just get rid of all football articles which need to be updated, just in case someone does not update them.Darryl.matheson (talk) 22:55, 19 November 2007 (UTC)
