Utah Utes football under Ron McBride

 * – ( View AfD View log )

This article has been split into 13 separate articles. This duplicates those 13 articles and information found in the Ron McBride article. —Ute in DC (talk) 04:20, 9 May 2011 (UTC)

 * Delete without prejudice to recreate. As it stands now, the article is duplication.  However, it is very possible that the article could stand alone with additional details and information--it just isn't there right now.  If the article is expanded to be more than a re-hash of what already exists, I'd certainly change my position.  If deleted, an appropriate re-direct should be made (which, technically isn't a delete... but you guys know what I mean).--Paul McDonald (talk) 12:59, 9 May 2011 (UTC)
 * Delete. I'm the original author of the article, and it has served its purpose. The recently-created 13 separate articles will do a better job now. De  Fault  Ryan  15:26, 9 May 2011 (UTC)
 * Any reason we shouldn't just blank the article and redirect? Or maybe use a WP:SPEEDY G7 (author requests deletion)?  I'd lean towards the redirect for now...--Paul McDonald (talk) 20:52, 9 May 2011 (UTC)
 * As the nominator, I would not object to a redirect. I nominated the article to get a full opportunity for others to comment. However, what would it redirect to? The main Ron McBride article? —Ute in DC (talk) 22:29, 9 May 2011 (UTC)
 * That's what I was thinking. Right now, it's really a robust disambiguation page.  BUt more comments would be good, there's no deadline.--Paul McDonald (talk) 00:30, 10 May 2011 (UTC)
