Jaradites

Jaradites (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) (delete) – (View log)

Created by member of the club with no significant input from indeppendent editors. Unable to verify most of the content as there are no sources that go beyond trivial listings. Fails the notability guideline of Misplaced Pages:WikiProject Rugby union - the team is at the second level of regional competition. dramatic (talk) 10:49, 10 April 2008 (UTC)

Comment if you drill down to http://www.mooloo.co.nz/Club-Rugby/Senior-Club-Rugby/ it lists the team with a phone number and email address, but mere confirmation of existence is nothing to hang an article on. dramatic (talk) 00:47, 11 April 2008 (UTC)
  • Delete Doesn't seem notable. -- Dougie WII (talk) 22:56, 12 April 2008 (UTC)
  • Keep The page now has solid third party articles related to some headings. Fo rexample, why the Jaradites switched from Rugby League to Rugby Union. The success of individuals and team effort.Wsunnex (talk) 23:08, 14 April 2008 (UTC)
    • Comment The posting of a library user number to allow viewing of a restricted access resource violates both Misplaced Pages guidelines and the Hamilton City Council's regulations. Given that you have provided references for some of the material, we have a question of notability. A Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject_Rugby_union#Are_New_Zealand_Rugby_clubs_notable.3F discussion at the Rugby Union wikiproject suggests that teams at the second level of a district union competition are non-notable unless there are special aspects of notability. Has Jaradites won a large number of titles? no. Is the fact that it is based around the LDS community notable? No - there have been religion-based rugby clubs (Marist in nearly every NZ city) for decades. The number of brothers is really clutching at straws for notability (and IIRC it isn't referenced). An entire team switching codes is certainly unusual, but is that sufficient basis for an article? It is also problematic that there have been no substantial contributions from any disinterested editors. (It's a sort of litmus test - if you are notable, someone else can be bothered researching and writing about you)dramatic (talk) 12:22, 15 April 2008 (UTC)
  • Keep - As per Wsunnex. Has third party source, Waikato Times is a reliable source. Could use a clean-up, but shouldn't be deleted. - Shudde 02:51, 15 April 2008 (UTC)
