The result was redirect to 2017 Commonwealth Youth Games. There is a slight consensus (4-2) that this should not - as it stands - be a stand-alone article. Black Kite (talk) 10:40, 1 September 2017 (UTC)

One sentence, one source article with a lot of stats. Fails WP:SPORTSEVENT. The content can be summarized on the main article. - Mr X 11:46, 1 August 2017 (UTC)

- Delete – not even close to a notable event. Doesn't need a separate article as medalists can easily be listed on main 2017 Commonwealth Youth Games article. Adamtt9 ( talk) 13:38, 2 August 2017 (UTC)
- Procedural keep There is longstanding consensus to have such articles ("X at the Y games", "Country at Y games" etc.). This consensus can change of course but AFD is not the right forum to do so and deleting a single entry out of hundreds or thousands of such articles will most likely be disruptive. I urge the closing admin to consider this when assessing the discussion and I urge MrX to start a discussion at the appropriate venues before bringing more such articles to AFD. If they really all fail WP:NOTSTATS, they can all be deleted together, not one by one, overwhelming this already overwhelmed process. Regards So Why 10:48, 9 August 2017 (UTC)
Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
Relisting comment: Does anyone else agree with SoWhy's argument to retain the article?
- Delete. Not at all convinced by the WP:OTHERSTUFFEXISTS argument. If this event isn't notable enough to justify a fork from the main event, then we shouldn't fork it. ~ Rob13 Talk 01:18, 13 August 2017 (UTC)
- Keep. Per a quick google search there are plenty of GNG sources.

- Per WP:CONTENTFORK, sources are not the only thing that matters. As an aside, I'd love to see that Google search. I have a feeling you're conflating results from tennis at the Commonwealth Games (very notable) with tennis at the Commonwealth Youth Games (doubtful notability as standalone from the games themselves). ~ Rob13 Talk 07:53, 13 August 2017 (UTC)
- Actually no, I know my multi-sports events, and its borderline offensive to even suggest that. Tennis has only been held at the Commonwealth Games once (in 2010). The sources that are pulling up in Google News is going to be recent and not from 2010. Sources [1], [2], [3], [4], [5], [6], [7] and [8] Sportsfan 1234 ( talk) 16:44, 13 August 2017 (UTC)
