Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Underwater Hockey European Championships


 * 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 No consensus, slightly leaning keep - This is held in between the biannual World Championships, so it is certainly not as large as the world championships, but it is a regular event and plausible as a notable event. The problem is sufficiency in WP:RS, making the argument of Notability a weak one, but plausible. What I find in the consensus is uncertainty more than anything, which isn't strong enough to delete the article. I considered relisting, but I don't feel that it would be likely to add more to the discussion.. Dennis Brown - 2&cent; 18:43, 23 July 2022 (UTC)

I can’t see that this topic has in depth coverage in multiple RIS. A redirect to Confédération Mondiale des Activités Subaquatiques might be possible but I’d appreciate knowing what consensus is.

 * Delete doesn't pass WP:GNG. Not mentioned at target article, and adding this continental competition would be undue when no other continental competitions are mentioned there. Joseph2302 (talk) 07:47, 13 July 2022 (UTC)
 * Are there other continental competitions? It wouldn't be undue if they don't exist, or are so obscure we can't find them. This article suggests there are national competitions, a world competition, and a European competition only. SpinningSpark 15:04, 13 July 2022 (UTC)
 * Notability for this is very weak, but I am going to say keep anyway because I think Wikipedia should cover the top competitions in all sports. It is discussed on this page and this book notes it as one of the major sporting events in San Marino when it was held there.  The latter is just a passing mention, but the author's opinion that this was a major event that contributed to sport's tourism must count for something. SpinningSpark 15:04, 13 July 2022 (UTC)
 * Surely the top competition in underwater hockey is not this, but the Underwater Hockey World Championships? <b style="color:#0033ab">Joseph</b><b style="color:#000000">2302</b> (talk) 15:07, 13 July 2022 (UTC)
 * Yes but I said "top competitions" (plural), not the top competition. <b style="background:#FAFAD2;color:#C08000">Spinning</b><b style="color:#4840A0">Spark</b> 16:39, 13 July 2022 (UTC)


 * Keep A fair split from Confédération Mondiale des Activités Subaquatiques given that article is already quite bulky. Plus the ability to cover more obscure topics like this is what makes Wikipedia special, IMO. NemesisAT (talk) 10:44, 19 July 2022 (UTC)
 * It's only a valid split if it meets WP:GNG, something that no-one at this discussion has tried to prove it does. <b style="color:#0033ab">Joseph</b><b style="color:#000000">2302</b> (talk) 13:01, 19 July 2022 (UTC)
