The result was no consensus. It has been 2 weeks since the last comment so I can't justify a 3rd relist. Stubbyfying looks a good idea but that is for subsequent editorial action. Just Chilling (talk) 01:07, 17 July 2019 (UTC)

World Scholar's Cup

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

I started massive cleanup of this article and I'm at the point where I can't find independent sources to back up any of the claims. Coverage is international but routine, with these being some of the articles I've found in my attempt to source this thing: or. I thought I found an article from the UAE which could verify at least some of the claims in the introduction, but it turned out to have copy-and-pasted Wikipedia. It's very possibly notable, see, but as this stands it's entirely sourced to primary sites, very crufty, possibly promotional, and not encyclopaedic. Best case scenario seems to be WP:TNT to me, so nominating it for deletion. SportingFlyer  T · C  08:20, 26 June 2019 (UTC)

 * Keep but stubify if necessary and go from there. Coverage is significant enough and widespread enough to indicate notability, but detail is lacking. Primary sources are fine but rebuilding from the ground up is necessary to deal with the tone. Triptothecottage (talk) 07:20, 3 July 2019 (UTC)
 * Would you mind posting some links to sources which you think pass WP:GNG? They'd be helpful for improving the article, and I'm at a total loss here. SportingFlyer  T · C  16:25, 3 July 2019 (UTC)
