Not notable sports event within a larger competition, a search brought up nothing more than statistical tables, meaning that this fails WP:GNG and WP:NOTSTATS. Suggest a redirect to 2022 Racquetball World Championships. Devonian Wombat (talk) 11:14, 3 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

What the what? I'm astonished by this suggestion. The Mixed Doubles category was added this year to the Racquetball World Championships as a parallel for other sports that have mixed doubles, such tennis and badminton. The players in the competition are elite level players, so they are notable athletes. As such, I'm entirely baffled by the suggestion of these article being deleted.

Redirect to 2022 Racquetball World Championships. It is a notable event, but not notable enough to warrant an article by itself. ArdynOfTheAncients (talk) 18:04, 3 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.

Redirect to 2022 Racquetball World Championships. Not notable enough to need a separate article on every event at that championships, the content is already sufficiently covered at the parent article. As for anything relating to other sports being used as a parallel, that's just WP:OSE, which isn't a good argument to use in AFDs. Joseph2302 (talk) 10:15, 10 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
what about the rest of the events? Frietjes (talk) 15:31, 11 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
That is also my question, and concern. In fact, I'm so concerned about it that I didn't want to raise it lest people think that the other event pages for the championships be deemed to be apt for deletion. If the mixed doubles event gets deleted, then I'll put that info on the "parent" page (2022 Racquetball World Championships) but doing so for all individual events would clutter that page - in my opinion - and that's why I made sub-pages for the individual events. The team events I left on the parent page. I understand that "other articles are like this" isn't always a good argument, but if this is a notable event, then why aren't all the parts of it notable? Again, I'm a little baffled here. Trb333 (talk) 22:11, 11 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
