Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/The Race


 * The following discussion is an archived debate of the proposed deletion of the article below. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page (such as the article's talk page or in a deletion review).  No further edits should be made to this page.

The result was Redirect to Race. Consensus is clear that the current version of the article should be deleted, but the original redirect (in place until 16 April) has no apparent flaws, so back it goes. Discussion on a new target for that redirect would be welcome at the article's talk page here. UltraExactZZ Claims~ Evidence 22:55, 21 April 2008 (UTC)

The Race

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

Unsourced article on non-notable event. Prod was removed by author without explanation. -- Finngall  talk  23:02, 17 April 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete. It was my prod tag that was removed; I don't see any notability here, no references, no sources, not even enough information to tell in what continent this event is held, let alone who attends it or why it should be listed in an encyclopedia.  Plus I note the suggestion on the talk page that the apparent reason for the page's creation violates WP:NOT.  Accounting4Taste: talk 23:30, 17 April 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete. News searches from GNews, Proquest, Ebsco only turn up one mention for the combination "The Race" and "Kirkwood Estate", and it's about a speech given by a mayoral candidate regarding a race that just happened to contain the word "Kirkwood estate".  No sources to suggest notability.  Celarnor Talk to me  23:45, 17 April 2008 (UTC)

 * Restore redirect from 02:48, 2 November 2007 . Current article is deletable. "The Race" should either be the round the world sailing race of 2000, or racial supremacy. 70.55.85.177 (talk) 05:12, 18 April 2008 (UTC)
