All current sources are either primary or (for True Blue) student media/brief non-SIGCOV mentions, and a WP:BEFORE search has turned up only debatably SIGCOV blog coverage and non-SIGCOV mentions. Overall, I don't think they pass WP:GNG. To the extent there's anything to salvage, WP:PAGEDECIDE comes into play — the university's coloring is discussed at University of California, Los Angeles (albeit out of date, not reflecting that both athletics and non-athletics now use UCLA Blue), so it could be discussed there. &#123;{u&#124; Sdkb  }&#125;  talk 23:53, 25 July 2023 (UTC)

 * Redirect/merge both to  . UCLA Blue is used beyond just athletics, but it's still probably best discussed there alongside True Blue. &#123;{u&#124;  Sdkb  }&#125;  talk 23:57, 25 July 2023 (UTC)Updated preferred merge target per Siroxo 01:04, 26 July 2023 (UTC)
 * Blog comment The nomiation questions this blog, but it is from the Los Angeles Daily News, and WP:NEWSBLOGS are generally considered reliable.—Bagumba (talk) 00:21, 26 July 2023 (UTC)
 * @Bagumba, that's fair; I saw the closing post but missed that it had a paper behind it. It's still hyperlocal and quite short, though, so I don't think it moves us much closer to anything like GNG. &#123;{u&#124; Sdkb  }&#125;  talk 00:52, 26 July 2023 (UTC)
 * Comment On a related note, there also similar pages under Category:School colors.—Bagumba (talk) 00:26, 26 July 2023 (UTC)
 * Yep, there's a bunch of other stuff, and I've made several related nominations for them here, here, and here. I tagged Carolina blue for notability, as it's a little more borderline. There are also a bunch of entries that probably don't belong at list of shades of blue and other color shade lists as a result of past content that was inappropriately merged rather than deleted (e.g. here; no one outside of Brandeis' PR department has ever used "Brandeis blue"). &#123;{u&#124; Sdkb  }&#125;  talk 00:59, 26 July 2023 (UTC)
 * Yes. Other stuff arguments can go both ways, which is why I just noted the category and left it at that.—Bagumba (talk) 02:23, 26 July 2023 (UTC)
 * Merge to UCLA Bruins, which should be a more precise merge target than the main UCLA article. &mdash;siro&chi;o 01:00, 26 July 2023 (UTC)
