Ukraine at the 2013 European Road Championships[edit]

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

Nations at the xxx pages are usually reserved for events with multiple sports or disciplines. This one focuses on just one sport. Also quoting Peter Rehse, from another similar AFD [1], "they are all a rehash of a single source. National results for events that are borderline notable themselves. Even there there is nothing demonstrating that [the country] performed anywhere near notable." Sportsfan 1234 (talk) 02:32, 27 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Merge. While I generally agree with arguments in favor of delete, I feel the best solution would be to merge the per-country-per-year articles into per-country articles (Ukraine at the European Road Championships, etc.). GregorB (talk) 12:21, 29 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
comment at least some articles (I did a small sample) are not tagged pointing to this discussion. I ask @Sportsfan 1234: to tag them, and ask to pace their nominations for deletion which are counting up from a thousand in a week or so. I also ask admins assessing this discussion to count the 7 day discussion period starting only after all articles are tagged. Nabla (talk) 23:02, 29 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Keep

1) The nominator says events that are borderline notable themselves, well the event meets WP:NCYC

2) As per Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/France at the 2014 European Athletics Championships.

3) THe nominator says Nations at the xxx pages are usually reserved for events with multiple sports or disciplines. But the same kind of series are made for the Category:Nations at the European Athletics Championships and Category:Nations at the World Championships in Athletics. These events have the same notability standard.

4) These kind of pages pages of the World Champinships that are listed for deletion for the same reasons where discussed at the Cycling Wikiproject, see Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Cycling/Archive 12#Country pages for the UCI Road World championships. Lugnuts, XyZAn and Buzzards-Watch Me Work joined the discussion and nobody was against.

or Renaming: It might be better to rename all such pages into like 2013 in Dutch road cycling, 2015 in Ukrainian road cycling etc.. So it would became a merge including Ukraine at the 2013 European Road Championships and Ukraine at the 2013 UCI Road World Championships. (Note that merging into the national pages is difficult as there are already pages named Ukraine at the European Road Championships, France at the European Road Championships and Italy at the European Road Championships etc. not taking part in this AfD )

Merge as per GregorB, standardise to [Country] at [Competition], this is also something I brought up at WT:CYC XyZAn (talk) 13:57, 2 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.

Delete just like the other related AfDs. Statistics that no-one will ever look at in their current state. Laurdecl ^talk 09:21, 11 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Delete or Merge per GergorB.
Delete as WP:INDISCRIMINATE list of trivia information that does not meet sufficient notability guidelines. There's really no need for all these articles, the information is just reposting data from a single website to WP with no context provided. FuriouslySerene (talk) 08:24, 15 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Strong delete per WP:NOTSTATS. Proliferation of sports statistics cruft that's best left to dedicated databases. Renata (talk) 02:28, 16 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]
