The HJ Cup
Incoherant article on subject with no references I can find. New user removed speedy tag ( probably accidentally) so here it is. I cannot see that this article is either verifyable or about a notable event Peripitus 12:52, 25 May 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete as nominator - Peripitus 12:53, 25 May 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete. It seems to be about a video game that has not come out yet, as far as I can tell. It is also unsourced. PJM 13:06, 25 May 2006 (UTC)
 * as far as I can tell from the article's talk page it's about a sporting team with disabled athletes. Still fails any test I can think of - Peripitus 13:35, 25 May 2006 (UTC)
 * The entry certainly has an inkblot quality to it; I'll give it that. PJM 13:42, 25 May 2006 (UTC)

The HJ cup is a well known sporting event to all teenagers in the greater South and East Sydney (Australia) areas. Games 1 and 2 had an average 2000 spectators - considering it's totally free of advertising etc. that's quite an achievement. Please leave the site up.

 * Delete per nominator - moreover it is nonsensical and poorly written Craig451 14:03, 25 May 2006 (UTC)
 * How exactly does one source a small time fun sporting event which is occuring in real time? God. Grow some brains. Secondly, it may not be expertly written - and that's fine. It's a small testimoney as well as an informational source. AndyZ7
 * What you say doesn't make much sense. Furthermore, please "grow some manners" and don't insult others. See WP:CIVIL. Thanks. PJM 11:17, 26 May 2006 (UTC)
 * If it is admittedly a "small time sporting event" why is it deemed worthy of an individual article? See here for information about citing sources. Also please refer to WP:NOT for a guideline on what deserves an article and WP:NPA and WP:CIVIL before telling people to "grow some brains". Thanks. Craig451 15:03, 26 May 2006 (UTC)


 * Delete. The article doesn't even say what sport they're playing or where. (Yes, it says "footy", but that doesn't exactly narrow it down much.) From what I can understand based on comments here and the talk page, this is an intramural rugby competition between loosely defined teams, which isn't going to be notable even if it is verifiable. --Metropolitan90 06:47, 26 May 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete for God's sake! Too many of these nn sporting events all over the country and elsewhere written by teenagers with terrible English skills have been popping up recently. SM247 00:24, 30 May 2006 (UTC)

You moderators are all worse than Hitler...How am i going to explain this to the kids. Josh Brown tried to access this site today and couldn't; he's been crying since 2pm this afternoon. Disappointing.
