Subject lacks the necessary
WP:SIGCOV to meet the
WP:GNG. Of the current sources, they are either a passing mention (#1), databases (#2 and #5), and routine game previews/recaps (#3, #4, #6, and #7).

Weak keep To be honest this probably belongs in a list of Bennett Medical football team seasons instead of being a stand-alone page as it's barely a "season" but not only is this the only Bennett Medical football season currently on the web site I do think there's just enough sourcing there.

What sources do you think meet the
WP:GNG for this season specifically? If you or someone else wants to draftify this for a potential combined season article, be my guest (although I am somewhat skeptical).

The game recaps meet GNG to me since this is a season article and it's been shown their games generated coverage. It's also a contextual argument, it probably wouldn't be enough if the same articles were around in 2023, but that is good 1905-era coverage.

Delete. This has some similarity to
Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/1904 Toledo Athletic Association football team. Both were created as part of an ambitious campaign by
User:Murphanian777 to create articles on every opponent of Notre Dame. While I appreciate Murphanian's desire to be thorough, notability is not inherited by virtue of having played a game against Notre Dame (particularly in early years when Notre Dame scheduled games against many small-school patsies). Accordingly, we need to see SIGCOV of the Bennett team in order to keep this. The best sources cited in the article are
this and
this which are very brief game summaries. Mostly we have game scores (e.g.,
this) or database entries (e.g.,
this). I end up leaning "delete" when I also consider that (a) Bennett Medical School was not a particularly notable institution or football program (no parent articles on either), (b) there was nothing particularly remarkable about the 1905 team which compiled a 1–1–2 record, and (c) the article is a sub-stub with one short sentence of narrative text. All that said, I have no objection to draftification if Murphanian or someone else steps forward indicating a desire to take time to work to improve the article in draft space.

If not kept, request userfy - may eventually get to creating something to contain this season article.
