I would merge to Curl (football), but I'm not sure there is anything worth merging. Note a similar discussion at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Outside curve (slice) (Football) D O N D E groovily Talk to me 02:56, 7 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Question Was there a first nomination? D O N D E groovily Talk to me 02:58, 7 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- There was not. I assume that the nominator (User:Dwanyewest) for the 2nd AfD considered it a 2nd nomination since s/he had previously PRODed the article. Whwya (talk) 06:41, 7 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Merge if there is found to be anything encyclopaedic here that is not already in the Curl article, which I very much doubt, otherwise delete. Is trivela a term in use in English anyway: as an English-based follower of the game for 40years, I've never heard it before this morning... Kevin McE (talk) 10:11, 7 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Merge as per Kevin McE. Giant Snowman 15:46, 7 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Not delete. This term is used in the UEFA web page so it does at least exist. I'd say a merge and redirect (Trivela is still a useful search term) would probably make sense, but I don't know if this can be considered a curl - that's something for football experts to answer. If a merge doesn't make sense, that I'd clear out the original research and keep this. Chris Neville-Smith (talk) 20:30, 8 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Merge / redirect into Curl (football) - obviously there's no doubt that this is a genuine term but there's no point having two articles describing the same thing. The term 'Trivela' is pretty much unknown in the English-speaking world, and seeing as this is the English language Wikipedia, the English term should take precedence.
