The following discussion is an archived debate of the proposed deletion of the article below. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page (such as the article's
talk page or in a

Just another case of
WP:LISTCRUFT to appeal to the most ardent fans. Fails
WP:LISTN. Additionally
WP:NOTDATABASE and
WP:ROUTINE. As with sources per
WP:RS besides being mostly unsourced; they consists of
WP:PRIMARY, announcements, some appears to be rewritten from each other. Most of those are about the game itself, others are dead or redirected pages. Barely much to help this list to assert notability.

Procedural close, all three deletion attempts of the lists of Monday Night Football games should be in a single nomination (three bites at the apple?).

NOTSTATS would not apply as the information is explained, and
WP:NOTROUTINE covers the nominated articles (which should be combined by the nominator as soon as possible because now editors are commenting) as typical and encyclopedic. Will comment further when I reply to the nomination.

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus. Relisting comment: Merging multiple deletion discussions into a single AfD is a nomination choice, not a valid reason for procedural close, unless another AfD for the same page is already in progress. Please address the specific article. Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks,

Keep a sensible way of organizing this data. As far as
WP:NLIST, CBS Sports organizes information this way
[1], as do teams such as the Dallas Cowboys
[2]. As far as
WP:ROUTINE, that is an argument against articles for individual games, Routine events such as sports matches ... may be better covered as part of another article.

To me I think we either need to keep all of the results articles or delete them all (which includes TNF, SNF, NFL Network exclusive game series and also NFL on ABC results) since it doesnât make sense to delete one and not the others, and same reasoning in keeping as well, plus if applicable we need to match the timelines a bit, make a single article just for ABC exclusive years, and another for ESPN years, and a final for ABC/ESPN together, since it doesnât make sense to break it up every 20 years either

Keep per
WP:NLIST which states "One accepted reason why a list topic is considered notable is if it has been discussed as a group or set by independent reliable sources, per the above guidelines; notable list topics are appropriate for a stand-alone list." Monday Night Football was a notable TV show, looked forward to every week in the era of three or four networks. It was a national event, only the best games were slated for Monday night. And it made stars of its announcers. Then per Walsh90210, who presents a good case.
