Canadian Championship Golden Boot[edit]

Completely unsourced and dubious, as from what I can see, cannot be found at the official website. It simply seems like a list of top scorers, which most of the annual tournament pages already track. Vaselineeeeeeee★★★ 23:36, 4 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

  • Comment Staying neutral, but it's not at all dubious. It's type of WP:CALC doing exactly what nom has stated: copying the results from each season's article into one place. The sources are easily found there. Walter Görlitz (talk) 07:23, 6 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Yes, the point is simply that it is dubious a "Golden Boot" award is actually awarded for the Canadian Championship, as it cannot be found at the official site. If it is just a list of top scorers, it can be listed at the main page, which it already is in fact. Vaselineeeeeeee★★★ 18:31, 8 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete: The nom pointed out "Completely unsourced and dubious". We are not required to Goggle, and "dig through" different sources not in the article, to determine if unsourced calulations are correct. It might be correct that if there were 2 red cars, 2 black cars, a white car, and a pink car, in sources, we could provide the total of "Six cars of various colors". The rest of WP:CALC states: "...provided there is consensus among editors that the result of the calculation is obvious, correct, and a meaningful reflection of the sources.". We would use a dubious tag anytime we saw an unsourced number presented or any content we couldn't verify. Dubious = questionable = how can we know if unsourced. I glanced at the article Canadian Championship and must have missed any mention there. It would seem that would be a good place if there are sources. I might agree it was not at all dubious if there was never content that was unsourced, biased, OR, POV, synthesis, or fringe theories presented in Wikipedia articles. I have a hard enough time because it appears broad consensus can support unsourced/undersourced/improperly sourced articles so there has to be a line on one where the content is pieced together.

  • Merge with Canadian Championship. All of the information on this page is contained within that one. The Golden Boot does appear[1] to be an actual award, so perhaps a note should be added to the top goal scorer table on the Canadian Championship.

Note that this "reference" is to a known Wikipedia mirror - a copy of this very article. That's not going to help. Kuru (talk) 16:09, 14 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.

Maybe it has been an award, but I'm still not totally convinced, as the link only provides a few seasons; perhaps it was discontinued similar to Toronto FC Player of the Year which was also deleted probably about a year ago, and merged into Toronto FC main article, but I'm noticing now it was since removed by a user on 23 October 2017.

  • Delete - no evidence of notability. GiantSnowman 12:51, 15 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • MergeDelete Per above. Merge into Canadian Championship but also need to add reference. Hhhhhkohhhhh (talk) 13:37, 15 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • Forgot: Delete as nom. Vaselineeeeeeee★★★ 20:35, 15 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
    Oh soory! Since it is not an offical award, no reason to keep it, we need OR! Hhhhhkohhhhh (talk) 22:25, 15 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete - not even sure if this is an official award, but relatively confident it is not notable given there is only ever a maximum of three games played per edition by any one club and the number of goals scored is minimal. Think it would be overkill to have the full table in the parent article either. Fenix down (talk) 15:37, 17 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
