British University baseball team, seems to be a non-notable subject Flaming Ferrari (talk) 19:40, 13 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Plenty of UK amateur baseball teams have wikipedia pages, there is no reason to single this one out. The referencing needs work but the subject itself seems to pass wk:notability quite comfortably to me. Note that poor referencing or article content is not a valid reason for deletion on notability grounds. Py0alb (talk) 10:30, 17 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Comment With the exception of The Boat Race UK university sport has a very low profile, even within the local community. Furthermore baseball has a very low profile as a sport. I would be surprised if you could find any sources beyond student publications, such as local or national press. Most UK university American Football articles were deleted for this reason.

Delete - non-notable team. Google search revealed no in-depth coverage in reliable sources at all (and hardly even any passing mentions!) -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 13:21, 20 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]
