Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/MELEE-FC
Gamecrufty article about an international Super Smash Bros. Melee tournament that claims notability on the basis of having had a whopping 186 entrants; the article says it's the most entrants in a tournament "of its kind", which is pretty easy seeing as there's no other SSBM tourneys to compete with it. As it stands, it reads like an advertisement for the next tournament. I'm voting to just get rid of it. Danny Lilithborne 06:37, 3 July 2006 (UTC)
- Keep this tournament has establish notability. It will be rewritten. Sources also have been cited of its reach beyond just that of smash. Also there is a citation about Newscasters interviewing players and the tournament scene. Please read the entire article. Also if you did any research you would note that smash has the largest tournament community. Therefore there are many tournaments to compete with it. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.248.218.111 (talk • contribs)
- The entire article is 70% self-promotion and 20% "oh wow we were on the news once". And I don't think you understood what I was trying to say. I am very familiar with how popular a tournament game SSBM is. Read what I said over again. Danny Lilithborne 07:04, 3 July 2006 (UTC)

- A few notes. This initial reason for recommended deletion was based on a bias (negative personal feelings) toward the creator of the page. Reading through this article provides both citations and reports of the notablilty of this tournament. To view an unnotable tournament see NorCal Tournament. Melee FC has been portray by the media, and thus gone beyond that of interest community. Therefore, not only having a massive impact on the Smash community, but also is known outside of interest group.
