Procedurally completing an AfD on behalf of an IP who completed steps 1 and 3; I assume the rationale is along the lines of "non-notable individual football game". I am neutral. —KuyaBriBriTalk 21:29, 1 December 2010 (UTC)
- Delete – If there is any enduring significance to this particular game, I'm not seeing evidence of it in the article. From the looks of it, one famous club routed another in a match that is part of a well-known rivalry. That in itself doesn't strike me as being worthy of an article. WP:NOTNEWS is something I rarely invoke, but it's the first thing that came to my mind here. Obviously we can't have articles on every match ever played, and as I said above, I see no reason why this one is special enough to warrant a page.

- Delete per nom and Giants2008. Wikipedia is not Sports Illustrated. Literally when I saw this here my first reaction was "You have to be joking". - The Bushranger Return fireFlank speed 01:03, 2 December 2010 (UTC)
- Comment The Real Madrid C.F. 2–6 FC Barcelona article, alive and undeleted since August, seems to be the precedent. This opens up great possibilities ... any match/game between two well-known teams in any sport can now be an article ... those diehards in the WP:WikiCup can now generate new DYKs by the hundreds ...

- Oh, dear lord. I've prodded that one. Probably will have to AfD it, but one can hope. - The Bushranger Return fireFlank speed 01:48, 2 December 2010 (UTC)
- As PROD was not an option any more (the article had already been PRODded), I have taken it to AfD here. --Soccer-holicI hear voices in my head... 10:27, 4 December 2010 (UTC)

- Delete This article has WP:RECENT written all over it. Copy the valuable parts of this match and the 2–6 affair from last season to El Clásico, if not already done. --Soccer-holicI hear voices in my head... 12:37, 2 December 2010 (UTC)

- Delete - a mildly surprising result, but no notability above and beyond that of any other top-flight football match. Nowhere near to a goalscoring record, not even the biggest win in a match between these two teams! -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 12:40, 2 December 2010 (UTC)
- Delete We seem to have arrived at consensus that major finals are notable and matches that would be included in a history of one or either club. A historian writing the history of either of these illustrious clubs in 10 years time will not spare even a word for such a routine match. No special notability - delete. --Dweller (talk) 13:02, 2 December 2010 (UTC)
- Delete - what exactly is notable about this game? A team beat another team by a score that wasn't 1-0?! Big whoop. GiantSnowman 14:04, 2 December 2010 (UTC)
- Comment - There seems to be a lot of bias coming from the Users who want the article deleted. I think if the match was between Liverpool and United most of you would think different. The build up alone was newsworthy and the match itself was a spectacle that can be shared. The article needs work and more neutrality but it is worthy of having its own article. La Fuzion (talk) 15:23, 2 December 2010 (UTC)
- No, actually, we wouldn't. This isn't a case of WP:BIAS, this is a case of a football game, nothing more, nothing less. It wasn't a championship match, and it wasn't an especially historic one either. Should I create an article titled 2010 Pittsburgh Steelers-Baltimore Ravens game because there was news coverage of the rivalry in the leading up to the event, and because the game was memorable? - The Bushranger Return fireFlank speed 15:27, 2 December 2010 (UTC)
- If Liverpool beat Man U 5-0 and there was a brief burst of people going "Ooh, that was slightly surprising", I would !vote to delete an article for that game too -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 15:38, 2 December 2010 (UTC)

- No worries from me as I won't fight it but the bias is quite clear. Cheers. La Fuzion (talk) 15:50, 2 December 2010 (UTC)
- Delete - Seems like the only notable parts are the buildup to the game and how it was a spectacle. Both are arbitrary commentary and not historically relevant events. Xboxandhalo2 (talk) 17:43, 2 December 2010 (UTC)
