A previously-placed PROD was declined by the article creator. Fails WP:NLIST and there is consensus from Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/List of NFL on Fox commentator pairings that these types of articles do not merit inclusion here. The article is also entirely unsourced and may consist of original research. Eagles 24/7 (C) 17:59, 5 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Delete no sources provided and no real claim to notability to even evaluate.--Paul McDonald (talk) 18:34, 5 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]
- comment if you need a policy reason, then having unsourced material could be considered a violation of biographies of living persons.--Paul McDonald (talk) 18:40, 5 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  - Is this material "contentious"? Invoking BLP here seems like inappropriate overkill and distraction, especially where it's not plausible that this is unsourceable. The valid deletion argument here would seem to be there's no reason to restate information in a standalone list that is already contained (or can be) in the parent article Thursday Night Football. And this does seem like valid and relevant information to include there, whether it is in this list format or not. postdlf (talk) 18:48, 5 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]
    - Well, several people are shown paired with Joe Buck and personally that would do it for me... but I see your point. I'm still in the same position because there's no real reason to keep. Discussion should be similar to Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/List of NFL on Fox commentator pairings unless someone can give a reason otherwise.--Paul McDonald (talk) 13:19, 6 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Delete. Fails WP:LISTN which requires that the topic has "been discussed as a group or set by independent reliable sources." Here, no sources are provided in the article, and a WP:BEFORE search fails to reveal sources in which the topic has received arguably significant coverage in reliable, independent sources.

Comment I am unsure what to say about this list. Can it be referenced? If so I think it would meet WP:LISTCRITERIA. Wm335td (talk) 21:42, 5 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Merge to Thursday Night Football. The lists of announcers and other information on that page make me think this sort of material (presuming sourcing) would be right at home there. If anything, it should be spun out with that long list of announcers. — Rhododendrites ^talk \\ 03:36, 6 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Delete This is easily a grid in the TNF article (and it doesn't need the one-time cruft of the oddly-branded Thursday Night Football on Christmas Eve Sunday Morning from London pairings; stick to the actual games that take place only on Thursdays).
