Article content questionable

I'm sorry, but the subject matter is not notable as per WP:N. There has been no history between the clubs to develop any rivalry, let alone a name for the invisible rivalry. There are some true rivalries in the game that have been alive for over 100 years (Coll & Carl, Ess & Carl, Carl & Rich, Coll & Ess, etc, etc) and none of these have been assigned names. The balance within the subject matter as per WP:NPOV is highly questionable and extraordinarily suspect with regards to the potential manufacturing a rivalry that does not exist. I would usually refer to myself as an exopedian, but I cannot recommend anything but deletion for this article. Nick carson (talk) 14:18, 8 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I think it can be considered notable because it has been heavy publicised in the media as the 'QClash', and more importantly, it will continue to occur in the future. By the way, there are currently pages for all of the above rivalries, which you can find at [[Category:Australian Football League rivalries]]. Most of the clashes mentioned above do have trophies for the winner of the game eg. Richard Pratt Cup for the winner of Carlton and Collingwood but these name are less well-known and/or publicised as they have only been inaugurated in recent years.

Table format

Going to try out what I think is cleaner and more attractive table format for the game list. Feel free to discuss it here. The Frederick (talk) 12:11, 7 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

It's QClash !

I've heard several mentions of this in the media over the past few days. The ONLY name I have heard is QClash, not Queensland Clash. The source says "...to be known also in its abbreviated form as QClash".

While quite frankly I see both names as quite silly, I'm not a marketer, so I'll go with the common name QClash. Nobody is calling it Queensland Clash. So, sorry to do this so early in its life, but I'm calling for a move to QClash.

Sounds fair to me. The Frederick (talk) 12:51, 7 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

We're not trying to replicate marketing or media hype. This is an encyclopedia! We're only interested in reality, and reality is there is no history between these clubs, no rivalry exists. I'm moving to have the article deleted. Nick carson (talk) 14:22, 8 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]
