Not clear what sport it is, no context, no sources, hardly any internet hits. Fails WP:GNG Night of the Big Wind _talk 11:57, 10 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Comment Another table hockey entry from TH guru. --Colapeninsula (talk) 15:58, 10 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Keep - I was able to find several references for this tournament (which has apparently been going on since 1982).--Stv Fetterly (Edits) 16:16, 10 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Delete I found [1] which is not enough. I would like to see Stvfetterly's sources. SL93 (talk) 20:43, 10 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Comment - [2] - article about table hockey that references the Swedish Masters,[3] - Gives some history of the Swedish Masters tournament,[4] - reported listing of winners for 2012 of the tournament,[5] - Interview with table hockey player who gives his opinion about the Swedish Masters,[6] - Refers to a table hockey player who had competed at the Swedish Masters, [7] - Indicates that the Swedish Masters is one of the six biggest world tournaments for table hockey. There seems to be at least some indication of notability of this tournament.--Stv Fetterly (Edits) 12:01, 11 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Do you also have some independent sources, like national newspapers? Night of the Big Wind _talk 01:49, 14 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Keep - One of the biggest tournaments in this sport, just needs formatting work. Also this is good for the improvement of coverage for minor sports. Which Wikipedia does not have enough of.GuzzyG (talk) 11:13, 15 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Comment - Just noting that Wikipedia is not a means of promotion.

Weak delete or merge a summary of the article with ITHF table hockey. The notability of the article is weak at best: I couldn't find news coverage, and the sources listed above aren't the most independent or significant. So it's a borderline case, and I'd lean towards deleting the article and including the information in summarized form (there's no need to list the results in such great detail) in ITHF table hockey. -Well-rested ^Talk 06:17, 23 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Delete - No significant coverage in independent reliable sources. The only source that would be usable for establishing notability is the Edmonton Sun, and that is a passing mention. -- Whpq (talk) 14:23, 2 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]
