The result was keep. Surprised to see a consensus to Keep this article as most of the other articles on sports broadcasting for events that have been brought to AFD have resulted in Deletions. Liz Read! Talk! 21:58, 18 May 2024 (UTC)

WP:NOTTVGUIDE applies here. Just another case of WP:INDISCRIMINATE WP:LISTCRUFT to appeal to nobody but the small minority of the most ardent fans; another excessively bloated list fit for Fandom but is it encyclopaedic for here? The subjects are not described as a group, failing WP:LISTN. Additionally WP:NOTDATABASE and WP:ROUTINE. As with sources per WP:RS, most of these are WP:PRIMARY. Of the three remaining sources two of them is dead and one is nothing but listings and announcments, doing nothing to establish notability. SpacedFarmer ( talk) 21:33, 11 May 2024 (UTC)

- Keep: These crews get covered as a group in secondary sources such as [ [1]], [ [2]], [ [3]] [ [4]] and [ [5]] (not to mention that these sources were just on the first page of results of a quick internet search). I'd say it passes the WP:LISTN criteria and I'm not sure what part of WP:NOTDATABASE the nom thinks this violates (or WP:NOTTVGUIDE, since this isn't covering a broadcast schedule). The current sources are mostly primary, but that is not a reason to delete any article on its own when secondary sources are shown to exist. Let'srun ( talk) 22:42, 11 May 2024 (UTC)

- Keep, I figured when we get up to the most notable sporting events in the US that we would get more WP:SIGCOV. The article does need to be trimmed, but the sources provided by Let'srun suffice for WP:LISTN. Conyo14 ( talk) 05:06, 12 May 2024 (UTC)
