Per discussion at WikiProject NFL, bringing this article to AfD. Reasons mentioned at that discussion include WP:INDISCRIMINATE, WP:OR, and the fact that there is no clear definition of what is considered "lore". This article has numerous edit wars over what should and shouldn't be included. Natg 19 (talk) 20:45, 1 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Delete per nom. There's possibly a valid list in the bones of this article, but it's WP:INDISCRIMINATE. SportingFlyer talk 01:08, 2 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Delete per nomination. – Sabbatino (talk) 08:31, 2 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Delete per nom. No clear criteria for what is and is not "lore," which results in a lot of original research and either unsourced or poorly sourced entries Frank Anchor^Talk 12:12, 2 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]
While I believe that we should Delete the article, some of the data collected in there is pretty interesting and it seems to be researched and sourced well. I recommend that before a hasty deletion takes place that we find a way to best use the information in the article and merge it among perhaps a large number of other articles. It seems that they belong there... --Paul McDonald (talk) 13:28, 2 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Comment most of the entries on this page have their own Wikipedia articles that provide more information than is listed on this page. Frank Anchor^Talk 13:51, 2 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. At best this is an attempt to chronologically organize NFL-related articles without any specific criteria for inclusion other than a vague "it's what people talk about." Most of the content is discussed in more depth at their respective articles and/or articles linked from History of the National Football League. --Kinu ^t/_c 21:47, 5 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]
