Funnily enough a WP:BEFORE search doesn't return anything regarding this "five-round competition" which only had one entrant in one of the rounds. WP:NOTDATABASE applies. If sourcing can be found explaining the lack of entries then it should probably be mentioned in the main Group R-GT article. HumanBodyPiloter5 (talk) 15:17, 5 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Delete per nom - farce championship which, as the nom says, can be explained in the main article if sourcing can be found (I couldn't find anything either). A7V2 (talk) 23:37, 5 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Delete – Per nominator's comments. An article in this case is completely unjustifiable. For all intents and purposes the championship exists only on paper. 5225_C (talk • contributions) 08:11, 6 January 2022 (UTC), expanded 08:14, 6 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Merge and redirect into Group R-GT. Redirects are WP:CHEAP and a one-sentence note explaining that the champion for 2016 was the only entrant can be easily sourced, even if by a primary source. -"Ghost of Dan Gurney" 15:49, 11 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

There's no content to merge, but we can add a note to the table in the Group R-GT article though. I would prefer no redirect given the "championship" (any season) doesn't really exist in real life (try and find something on Google that isn't an announcement). Ourtight deletion seems like the most suitable action in this case. 5225_C (talk • contributions) 04:07, 12 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
