Vukcevich Super Cup
AfDs for this article: 
 * ( [ delete] ) – (View AfD) (View log)

Tournament does not appear to be notable. Speedy deletion had been requested but I don't think that any of the speedy criteria are applicable. AFD had been attempted before (almost 2 years ago) although it looks like the AFD page was not completed properly - with only a "keep" from the user who created the AFD page - and the AFD tag was removed from the article, so I decided to list it here again. --Snigbrook ( talk ) 20:42, 28 March 2008 (UTC)

 * Delete - not notable. Bubba73 (talk), 23:51, 28 March 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete - Wikipedia isn't a free web host. Stifle (talk) 23:32, 29 March 2008 (UTC)
 * Keep - This is an article requiring citations. It has not been marked as such and contributors have not had an opportunity or may not even be aware of the requirement to correctly add citations. As such raising an AfD does not seem appropriate procedure. Comments above 'Wikipedia isn't a free web host' suggests in some way that the info is not legitimate. A check on search engines shows this Cup is recognised by United States Chess Federation, so clearly it's a real article about a real award. Whether it can meet notability I'm not sure, but I'm not going to make a subjective claim that it can be deleted without an opportunity of citations to be brought forward.

 * Comment: There's nearly three days before this AFD closes to come up with some citations. Stifle (talk) 12:40, 30 March 2008 (UTC)
 * Keep per There is no deadline. Sincerely, --  Le Grand Roi des Citrouilles  Tally-ho! 15:52, 30 March 2008 (UTC)
 * Comment: there is no deadline, there's also no reason the article can not be recreated once notability improves. - Owlmonkey
 * Delete - Fails WP:N I did a search for citations and found no one discussing the cup or award as a secondary source. plenty of notability for its chess champion namesake, but the tournament itself seems not very well commented upon yet. Maybe time will change that. - Owlmonkey (talk) 18:46, 2 April 2008 (UTC)
