This article, as well as the number of other related non-notable articles about this school, needs serious sourcing to avoid deletion. Please see [WP:V]], WP:N and WP:RS. Flowanda | Talk 23:17, 27 September 2008 (UTC)
- This would not likely be deleted at AfD. A nomination there would be considered as speedy cleanup. Clearly the Rebels are notable and have been for years. Yes, the onus is on the writers to establish notability. But I'll ask, how long would it take you to find one article about the Rebels in the
New York Times or any other major paper that establishes notability?

- You made a wholesale revert of my documented edits, citing that time was needed to source huge amounts of content making unsourced or poorly sourced claims. You are an admin. The editor who made most of the unsourced edits has over 3,600 edits since 2006. The unsourced edits -- including lyrics to the school song -- were from early July 2008. This article -- as well as the other UNLV-related articles -- may indeed survive AfD, but certainly not as it is now. How long does it take for experienced editors to source this content according to
WP:RS? I say that most of it can't/won't be unless/until other editor/s start editing/removing/tagging it.

- If you read
WP:RS you will find this statement. Proper sourcing always depends on context; common sense and editorial judgment are an indispensable part of the process. It also states that article Articles should rely on reliable, third-party, published sources with a reputation for fact-checking and accuracy. Is there a problem with the information you are removing? Is it known to be incorrect? Is there a reason to believe that the statements are false or inaccurate or misleading? If not then there is no reason to delete them. I don't know why the editors who are involved with this article are not doing a good job in updating, but is removing large chunks of it the best solution? In any case, lack of reliable sources is not in and of itself a reason to remove facts that are not likely to be proved false.

- You have no clue why the editor didn't source the content according to WP:RS or WP:V, but so what? I'm supposed to prove the editor wrong, despite policy or detailed explanations of my edits and three months of existence without any attempt at sourcing or comment -- until they were removed? Add a link for something like Go Golf Las Vegas (close enough) and claim it as a reliable source? Just write whatever and make everybody else do the work to show what's encyclopedic or notable or even correct? Those are your arguments, really? Flowanda | Talk 06:08, 2 October 2008 (UTC)

No mention of the Ice Hockey program, which is going to be using the Vegas Golden Knights practice facility? https://www.reviewjournal.com/sports/golden-knights-nhl/vegas-golden-knights-practice-facility-close-to-completion/ 81.129.252.113 ( talk) 15:23, 7 August 2017 (UTC)
