Contested PROD on the grounds that it appeared to meet GNG and wa swell written. Quality of writing is irrelevant to notability, and there is no evidence of GNG in the article as every single reference points to the Club's own website and is therefore a primary source. The original concern remains that this is a team that competes someway below the "top professional league" standard required by WP:NSEASONS and there is no indication that this season in the club's history garnered anywhere near the level of significant, reliable, non-routine coverage required by GNG.

• Delete - fails WP:GNG/ WP:NSEASONS. Giant Snowman 09:12, 20 July 2014 (UTC) reply
• Delete I don't see how this individual season is significant enough for a stand alone article, and the team does not play at a high enough level for the season to have inherent notability. -- kelapstick^{( bainuu)} 11:17, 20 July 2014 (UTC) reply

• Keep - meets WP:GNG with media coverage of recent season and recent Welsh Cup semi-finals. Article needs to be improved, not deleted, adding sources from other than the team itself. Media coverage examples of various seasons are [1] [2] [3] [4] Nfitz ( talk) 17:39, 26 July 2014 (UTC) reply

please see the other two Holywell town season articles for evidence of Nfitz providing exactly the same sources in each discussion. Whilst at best they can perhaps apply to one afd they cannot apply to all as each article refers to a different season. These links provided are relevant only to this AfD discussion and have nothing to do with the 2011-12 season. Fenix down ( talk) 20:31, 26 July 2014 (UTC) reply

One would assume that if one recent season from this team is notable, then they are notable. Nfitz ( talk) 13:53, 27 July 2014 (UTC) reply

Not if it did not recieve the required level of reliable coverage demanded by GNG, just because one season gets a given degree of coverage does not green light all previous and future seasons. None of the sources you have provided in this discussion have anything whatsoever to do with the season discussed. Your assumtion here is a personal opinion that to my knowledge has no support in terms of consensus at all. Fenix down ( talk) 15:56, 27 July 2014 (UTC) reply

• Delete - I agree with Fenix that each season is its own article and must be dealt with as such. As far as this one, I do not see it as being viable and it severely lacks WP:Notability Canyouhearmenow 11:10, 30 July 2014 (UTC) reply
