Dominica at the 2010 Commonwealth Games

There is no information on these article, that cannot be found on the 2010 Commonwealth Games article. A redirect would not be helpful either, as other nation articles have content on them. Sportsfan 1234 ( talk) 22:44, 22 December 2016 (UTC) reply

  • Procedural: I added some 8 similar articles to this AfD. 103.6.159.74 ( talk) 19:10, 27 December 2016 (UTC) reply
  • Merge. While I generally agree with arguments in favor of delete, I feel the best solution would be to merge the per-country-per-year articles into per-country articles ( Dominica at the Commonwealth Games, etc.). GregorB ( talk) 12:22, 29 December 2016 (UTC) reply
  • Keep or Merge. While these articles would be useful if they had more information, if they're going to be one-line stubs indefinitely they might as well be merged to a more general article for now. The titles should be kept regardless, though. TheCatalyst31 Reaction• Creation 13:30, 29 December 2016 (UTC) reply
They can be expanded. While Dominica at the Commonwealth Games is a one-liner, it is surprising to see that Dominica at the 2011 Commonwealth Youth Games is a full articele that was once featured as as DYK. 103.6.159.89 ( talk) 14:21, 29 December 2016 (UTC) reply
  • comment at least some articles (I did a small sample) are not tagged pointing to this discussion. I ask @ Sportsfan 1234: to tag them, and ask to pace their nominations for deletion which are counting up from a thousand in a week or so. I also ask admins assessing this discussion to count the 7 day discussion period starting only after all articles are tagged. Nabla ( talk) 23:02, 29 December 2016 (UTC) reply

  • Delete per nom. Articles with meaningless statistics that will likely never be looked at. Laurdecl talk 09:22, 11 January 2017 (UTC) reply
  • Merge - The statistics are useful, but only in a single article. Yoshiman6464 ♫🥚 02:22, 15 January 2017 (UTC) reply
  • Merge and redirect to the main articles, preserve info, avoid multiple stubs. Montanabw (talk) 08:13, 15 January 2017 (UTC) reply
  • Delete Zero information or content provided by these pages, so no merge is necessary. Just seems like an attempt by an editor to create lots of pages. Clearly unnecessary, as the fact that these countries attended the Commonwealth games is already covered on the main Commonwealth page. FuriouslySerene ( talk) 08:28, 15 January 2017 (UTC) reply
  • Delete all. Normally, I'd be looking for a reason to invoke WP:ATD, but I looked at every one of these; not one had any useful content, so there's nothing to merge, and the titles aren't even useful search terms, so redirects seem kind of pointless (but, redirects are cheap, so if somebody really wants the redirects, meh). -- RoySmith (talk) 21:21, 15 January 2017 (UTC) reply
  • Strong delete per WP:NOTSTATS. Proliferation of sports statistics cruft that's best left to dedicated databases. Renata ( talk) 02:27, 16 January 2017 (UTC) reply
