Soccer matches at the Rose Bowl[edit]

Seems to be the very definition of WP:INDISCRIMINATE - do we really need a list of soccer games played at a specific location? Other than that they occurred, there is not a single thing in the articles which shows why this list of games is notable. Onel5969 ^{TT me} 12:49, 27 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]

I am also nominating the following related pages which are all of similar concept:

Delete as per nom. Indiscriminate collection of data without significant context. WP:NOTASTATSBOOK. Also lack of sources. I tried to start a dialogue with the author a while ago but no response. If my memory serves me right, some of the articles had been deleted only to be recreated. _pseudonym Jake Brockman ^talk 16:45, 27 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Delete with many thousand stadiums where football soccer matches have been played I don't see any need for lists like this (Listcruft). No inclusion criteria, no references and the notable matches are all listed elsewhere. Some of the listed matches are non notable preseason 'friendly invitation tournaments' and there are no doubt other matches played at some of these stadiums that are not listed for unknown reasons. Significant matches or tournaments might get a passing mention on the stadium page, but listing every match is overkill. ClubOranje^T 07:18, 28 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Delete all - completely non-notable. Giant Snowman 08:59, 28 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Delete - thoroughly fails WP:NOTSTATS as the nominator said. There is not much notable about football matches played at football stadiums (I mean... that's what football grounds are for), the games that are notable should be included in the respective articles of the stadiums.

Delete all I can't imagine that a reader is really looking for a list of specific event types by venue. Notable events held at a venue should be in that venue's article.--TonyTheTiger (T / C / WP:FOUR / WP:CHICAGO / WP:WAWARD) 14:11, 28 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Comment While I agree with the football matches played in football stadiums part mentioned by Inter&anthro, a lot of these stadiums are for American football primarily. There are a few Soccer-specific stadium here in America, but majority of this list seems to be NFL stadiums that have been used for soccer. From the ones I've check they seem to be listing international team/clubs matches played. RFK Stadium for example, doesn't list DC United matches even though it is their home stadium, with the only MLS games being listed are all-star and championship games. StubHub center, one of the soccer specific ones, lists Olympic/WorldCup/Gold Cup/and some friendly international tournaments, but doesn't list the LA Galaxy home matches. Regardless, these lists probably aren't needed even with the specific criteria that seems to being used. Unless someone is going to merge/check the notable games listed on stadiums, a redirects to the stadiums would be preferable to complete deletion of history.
