This topic sounds like it ought to be notable, but it’s sourced only to a database and I can’t find any in depth coverage.

Keep As a continental sports event, I think this article "should" exist, so I think deleting is not the action to take here. Is tagging it with {{refimprove}} sufficient?

Delete I didn't find the coverage I believe is required to meet
WP:GNG. I found results and some basic sports coverage, but not what I would call significant independent coverage of the event itself. The mere fact that it's a continental championship does not grant automatic WP notability. I also looked at the 2006 and 2008 event articles and they both have few or no references at all--definitely nothing that shows
WP:GNG is met. I thought about adding them to this AfD, but will wait to see what happens with this discussion. The burden of proof is on those claiming notability.

Delete I had a look for sources like others have, but I also wasn’t able to find much independent coverage. As said, it sounds like it ought to be notable. However, the article fails
WP:GNG and unfortunately should be deleted unless someone is able to find some reliable independent sources. Fats40boy11 (

Redirect to above as plausible term. I think that would be a better option than deletion, so I have changed my mind slightly. However, there is not enough sources so we can’t keep the article in its current form unless someone can somehow find something that no one has currently been able to find.

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus. Relisting comment: Redirect as an option? Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, LizRead!Talk!21:35, 24 July 2022 (UTC)reply
Comment The problem with the redirect is that the target article also doesn't seem to meet
WP:GNG. I did check some of the pages for these championships for other years, besides the ones I previously mentioned, and none of them also seem to have significant independent coverage. The only sources seem to be lists of results and that doesn't seem sufficient to show WP notability to me. If something is to be kept, it seems like the proposed redirection target is better than lots of individual articles that don't meet
WP:GNG. Objectively, I'd say none of them meet WP notability criteria, but I'm willing to be flexible.

Redirect - to
European Taekwondo Championships. While it's possible that the redirect target also isn't notable, that's a separate discussion for a separate AfD, if one is to happen. This AfD is singularly about this article, and this article does not have significant coverage in reliable sources and fails
WP:GNG. However,
European Taekwondo Championships is a viable redirect target as it currently stands. -
