Non-notable grouping that fails to meet the WP:NLIST. Let'srun (talk) 13:34, 3 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  • Note: This discussion has been included in the deletion sorting lists for the following topics: Sports and Lists. Let'srun (talk) 13:34, 3 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep. Useful for navigational purposes as a split from Trojan (disambiguation). Someone searching "Trojans" is likely looking for a sports team, given that it is a popular mascot. -- Tavix (talk) 13:56, 3 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete: No sources cited, let alone any that discuss the topic of the list as a group. I can find user wikis and database-type articles listing teams named Trojans but nothing close to RS. WeirdNAnnoyed (talk) 14:02, 3 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • Redirect to Trojan, keeping only those entries whose teams have dedicated articles. Otherwise this doesn't meet WP:NLIST and opens up a WP:PANDORA's box of similar lists. 35.139.154.158 (talk) 17:31, 3 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete: This is not an article that meets WP:LISTN in its own regard. For navigation purposes, only the sports teams or college sports that use the name more notably such as USC Trojans and the non-scholastic teams should be placed into the DAB page.
