Quinella (Horse Racing Terminology)

(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

Delete per WP:NOT#DICTIONARY. Simply a definition of a word, and essentially duplicates content in Parimutuel betting and related glossary articles.

I am including the related articles below in this nomination for the same reasons:

Delete - I put PRODs on some of these in August 2017 for lack of notability, but was opposed by User:CDXs, who said he would expand them to show notability. Neither he nor any other editors have done so. Argento Surfer (talk) 13:29, 10 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Comment - no opinion on whether they should be kept, but if kept, they should all have the "horse racing terminology" qualifier in lower case, and if deleted, they should be checked (without the qualifier) that there are redirects in place to either the glossary or other betting article, as they are all plausible search terms.

Horse racing and betting are certainly notable subjects. Terminology should either be combined in a single article or kept individually. Deletion would not be a good outcome. FloridaArmy (talk) 14:51, 10 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Comment. Other than the definitions already contained in Parimutuel betting, the only additional content in each article fails WP:NOTHOWTO. Kb.au (talk) 15:09, 10 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Delete all per WP:NOTHOWTO and WP:NOTDICT. Any salvagable content could be included in Parimutuel betting. Ajf773 (talk) 19:15, 10 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Despite what the articles say many of the terms listed are used just as much in fixed-odds betting as in parimutuel betting, so I don't think that would be the best place for this content. 86.17.222.157 (talk) 10:45, 11 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

keep- Don't recommend deletion, those pages have already linked to Chinese wikipedia pages for describing horse terminology especially for Macau, Hong Kong and Singapore. It will lost all wikipedia bilingual function if it have been deleted. Chriskichau (talk) 08:55, 11 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Comment - They are all possible search terms to users, however the Parimutuel betting content is not a detail article for describing such terms. Please considerCDXs (talk) 11:00, 11 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
keep - Single page to introduce horse racing bet type separately, suppose it is different function versus the page Parimutuel betting.StephenLee1689 (talk) 13:49, 11 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Checkuser note: Chriskichau, CDXs, and StephenLee1689 are socks. See Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/Chriskichau.--Bbb23 (talk) 14:19, 11 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Delete all these are terms specifically created and applied to betting at the Hong Kong Jockey Club. The general names for the terms are already covered by horse racing betting articles. The terms at Parimutuel betting need to be scrubbed for general Hong Kong wagering, not ones specific to the Hong Kong Jockey Club. They are also very poor disambiguation choices (Horse Racing Terminology) had first letter of each word in caps, which is wrong. AngusWOOF (bark • sniff) 18:50, 16 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

I'll note that Win (horse racing) Place (horse racing) and Show (horse racing) would make for better named redirects to the Parimutuel betting article, and that Quinella (bet) already covers the case for Quinella. AngusWOOF (bark • sniff) 19:28, 16 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
