Real Madrid C.F. Matches 2007-08

Contested PROD. Per WP:NOT (quite an indiscriminate collection of information, Wikipedia is not a football statistics repository) and the additional fact that this article is partially a duplicate of Real Madrid C.F. 2007-08 season. Angelo 14:59, 2 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

This discussion has been included in WikiProject Football's list of football (soccer) related deletions. Angelo 15:02, 2 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Delete duplicates info already on wikipedia in Real Madrid C.F. 2007-08 season. King of the North East (T/C) 15:20, 2 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Delete - per nom. Propose replacing article with a redirect to Real Madrid C.F. 2007-08 season. - PeeJay 15:25, 2 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Keep. It does not duplicate the information, it expands upon it. This is a perfectly acceptable fork. --UsaSatsui 15:28, 2 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

The additional information is merely a list of past and future matches, including friendly match reports which were previously considered non-notable by the Football WikiProject. In any case, all this amount of information is way excessive detail (WP:NOT) and does not add any significance to the parent article, so there's no need at all to keep it. --Angelo 15:32, 2 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I don't see anything about it on said Wikiproject's notability page. --UsaSatsui 20:27, 2 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

That page does not cover the issue. You can find something about importance of non-competitive matches in the WikiProject talkpage archives. Here is one. --Angelo 20:32, 2 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

...I don't see any consensus on notability there either. So far haven't seen a single valid reason for deletion, except for it's maybe an indiscrminate colection of info. --UsaSatsui 16:10, 3 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Redirect - even the season article is overkill in my opinion, but precedent has seen these AfD many times, so redirect is the next best option. This could probably have been done without recourse to AfD. - fchd 15:31, 2 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Delete No reason why the info couldn't be incorporated into Real Madrid C.F. 2007-08 season. пﮟмьεя 5 7 15:32, 2 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Strong Keep. This page Real Madrid C.F. Matches 2007-08 includes all info about matches like goalscorers ,actins (yel,red card), time of each events as we do in {{footballbox}}. All of this info are linked with Real Madrid C.F. 2007-08 season by (Report) sectin. So, look to each pages, you will find that info in Real Madrid C.F. Matches 2007-08 complete with matches' report. thanks Saudi9999 17:31, 2 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Basically delete. Not really needed as a redirect. The amount of info expanded upon isn't even that much - goal scorers & times - but even so, that in itself is overkill. A sports wiki would be a much better place for such an article, not Wikipedia. I'm fine with the season article, but a list of matches is a bit too much, really. An article for the individual competitions w/ results listed isn't too much trouble, surely... AllynJ (talk | contribs) 20:03, 2 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Delete per WP:IINFO. There's so much information in the article to the point that it's not relevant. NASCAR Fan24^{(radio me!)} 20:15, 2 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Strong Delete Real Madrid C.F. 2007-08 season is more than enough, and to be honest, I think these season articles have been the thin end of the wedge such that more and more recentist articles are being created about every possible aspect of a season. Soon it will get down to the level of people arguing for articles for each and every league match. Let's concentrate on quality articles, not just making wikipedia an almanac of what's happening this season. Robotforaday 11:44, 5 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]
