Per the recently closed Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Hamley Bridge Football Club, this club represents two local villages, Dublin, South Australia and Long Plains, South Australia with populations of around 250 and 70 that play against each other local villages. Given that around 12% of Australians are males between 15-35 years old, that means that these villages have around 30 prime-aged males to select for their teams, so basically everyone would end up in this team, and these clubs are nowhere near notable in terms of sporting merit. The only refs are village newspapers or the books by Peter Lines on rural local football teams, which are self-published books Bumbubookworm (talk) 05:19, 20 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

  • Comment - @Bumbubookworm:, the consensus was to deal with these one at a time, not give you license to just run the lot of them again together. Can you please withdraw the nomination for all of these except one so proper consideration can be given to each AfD debate, and run them ONE at a time?

  • Speedy keep for failure to properly run this AfD. Deus et lex (talk) 10:48, 26 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.

  • Delete. Clearly a minor amateur sports club.--Grahame (talk) 06:14, 28 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment - @Premeditated Chaos:, at least 4 have been nominated at the same time, and on the same day that the previous AfD was closed, in direct contradiction to the consensus reached earlier. It's disruptive. Deus et lex (talk) 09:48, 28 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment PMC didn't even relist this discussion. Please do not copy paste messages across multiple deletion discussions; that can be considered disruptive. Sennecaster (Chat) 12:26, 28 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
