Storm Treasure

 * ( [ delete] ) – (View AfD) (View log)

does not warrant a Wikipedia article. The horse has won only three minor races, non of which are important races and none are even a Stakes race. It seems more like an advertisement than an encyclopedia article.

 * Delete An article on a relatively minor horse. Artene50 (talk) 04:28, 5 August 2008 (UTC)
 * Keep As much as this horse probably doesn't need an article, I've seen cricket players with a single reference of them existing warranting an article. We have non-trivial coverage of this horse's race history and stats and pedigree and stuff.  Since its sourcable, I think we gotta keep it. Drunken Pirate (talk) 21:12, 5 August 2008 (UTC)

 * Delete. This doesn't seem terribly notable, similar to the lack of notability attributed to a cricket bat.  Besides, this still fails WP:ATHLETE.  Simply that we have articles on cricket players above is no reason to keep this one (as that is a logical fallacy and listed in WP:AADD besides).  --Falcon Darkstar Kirtaran (talk) 05:24, 11 August 2008 (UTC)
 * Also note: I relisted this a second time because while I would have loved to close it delete, there didn't seem to be much consensus (still). I could have closed it no consensus, but then I would have had to list it here anyway.  --Falcon Darkstar Kirtaran (talk) 05:26, 11 August 2008 (UTC)
 * ?Yeah yeah, I know about WP:AADD, that's not going to stop me from being snarky, but this horse was in the Kentucky Derby, so how does he fail WP:Athlete? Wouldn't that be equivalent to a soccer player playing a match in a premier league and passing WP:Athlete or is there a WP:Horse I don't know about?  Wait, there is a WP:Horse but it strangely doesn't seem to be relevant. Drunken Pirate (talk) 06:51, 11 August 2008 (UTC)

 * Delete, I really don't think that animals can qualify for notability under WP:ATHLETE, and altogether a minor horse and without notability if it doesn't qualify under WP:ATHLETE. Nyttend (talk) 19:48, 11 August 2008 (UTC)
