Wikipedia:WikiProject Deletion sorting/Golf

This is a collection of discussions on the deletion of articles related to Golf. It is one of many deletion lists coordinated by WikiProject Deletion sorting. Anyone can help maintain the list on this page.

Adding a new AfD discussion

Adding an AfD to this page does not add it to the main page at WP:AFD. Similarly, removing an AfD from this page does not remove it from the main page at WP:AFD. If you want to nominate an article for deletion, go through the process on that page before adding it to this page. To add a discussion to this page, follow these steps:

Edit this page and add {{Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/PageName}} to the top of the list. Replace "PageName" with the relevant article name, i.e. the one on the existing AFD discussion. Also, indicate the title of the article in the edit summary as it is particularly helpful to add a link to the article in the edit summary. When you save the page, the discussion will automatically appear.
You should also tag the AfD by adding {{subst:delsort|Golf|~~~~}} to it, which will inform editors that it has been listed here. You may place this tag above or below the nomination statement or at the end of the discussion thread.

There are a few scripts and tools that can make this easier.

Removing a closed AfD discussion

Closed AfD discussions are automatically removed by a bot.

Other types of discussions

You can also add and remove other discussions (prod, CfD, TfD etc.) related to Golf. For the other XfD's, the process is the same as AfD (except {{Wikipedia:Miscellany for deletion/PageName}} is used for MFD and {{transclude xfd}} for the rest). For PRODs, adding a link with {{prodded}} will suffice.

Further information

For further information see Wikipedia's deletion policy and WP:AfD for general information about Articles for Deletion, including a list of article deletions sorted by day of nomination.

This list is also part of the larger list of deletion debates related to Sports.

Minthis Hills

(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

Largely unsourced and primarily promotional article about a resort/golf course in Cyprus. Created by a WP:SPA. Fails WP:GNG, WP:ORG and WP:NGEO. Existing references do not adequately demonstrate the historical significance of the site's monastery, which is mentioned only in passing, and largely without references, in what appears to be an attempt to justify the travelogue article.

TPC River's Bend

Comment: there is a perfectly good WP:ATD here, with a redirect to Tournament Players Club. _wjemather^{please leave a message...} 11:50, 21 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Keep - How were these missed in the WP:BEFORE search? Was Google News even searched? I found these here - 1, 2, 3, 4, 5. 6, 7, 8 KatoKungLee (talk) 18:44, 23 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
Relisting comment: Comments on suggested sourcing would be useful.
Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, Goldsztajn (talk) 00:03, 27 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Keep or redirect to Tournament Players Club. We should avoid WP:LOTSOFSOURCES argument; as nom didn't say there were none, they noted a lack of in-depth coverage. Also, 4 of 8 links provided by KatoKungLee are only findable w/ a newspapers.com subscription.
There's a lot of routine/mention coverage to wade through but [7] (fairly in-depth review in RS), [8] (article not specifically about course but provides some good detail about it), [5] (also decent detail, discusses golf digest awards) are the three best sources imo. I oppose outright deletion, but don't feel very strongly about keep vs. redirect. Zzz plant (talk) 01:33, 27 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Keep - per KatoKungLee. ロドリゲス恭子 (talk) 16:38, 29 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
