VIS Soccer

 * — (View AfD)

I'm not sure what VIS is... from my research, it appears to be a training camp attended by soccer players from Victoria. Unfortunately, the article doesn't say much about it other than which notable players have passed through it. From what I can tell, it appears to be an amateur league of some sort, the only connection to notability being these players having participated in it. Neutral from me, since I'm no expert on this, but I brought it here because it is a suspected WP:COI, and the author (either directly or through an IP) repeatedly removes speedy deletion tags. -- Kinu t /c  08:36, 28 December 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete: It appears that this is actually part of a larger organization, Victorian Institute of Sport. If there was an article on that, which would likely meet WP:ORG, I'd recommend merging and redirecting. However, since there is no article, and the soccer entity is merely a piece of the group as a whole and is non-notable as a standalone entity, per se, I am changing my recommendation to delete as indicated. -- Kinu t /c  08:48, 28 December 2006 (UTC)

 * Delete - not enough for an article. Springnuts 12:27, 28 December 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete - too small a subpart of an organisation to form an article on its own, though Victorian Institute of Sport would seem a viable article; if that gets created then I have no objections to a merge & redirect to that article. Qwghlm 12:48, 28 December 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete or potential merge to an article on the Victorian Institute of Sport, as per Qwghlm - fchd 14:32, 28 December 2006 (UTC)
