Bloom carroll varsity basketball team[edit]

This is an unencyclopedic article about a high school basketball team that has been rather successful. It appears to have been written by someone associated with the team since it uses the phrase "In which we have won 7 district finals..." (emphasis added). Delete.

  • Delete, possibly vanity and Google returned 2 results. - Mailer Diablo 16:18, 11 Mar 2005 (UTC)
  • Delete, what they said. -- Infrogmation 17:32, 11 Mar 2005 (UTC)
  • Delete. Not a topic for a general encyclopedia. Apparent vanity. --BM 21:09, 11 Mar 2005 (UTC)
  • Delete, not notable, vanity. Megan1967 23:19, 11 Mar 2005 (UTC)
  • Delete, small town high shool basketball teams with members who may, in the near future, be baited by college recruiters with the services of sex-industry workers, cash and scholarships are not inherently encyclopedic. Wyss 02:31, 12 Mar 2005 (UTC)
  • Delete without independent verifiability that anyone will ever care - David Gerard 17:53, 13 Mar 2005 (UTC)
  • Delete. This is the only edit made by this anon user that wasn't a straightforward piece of childish vandalism. The same user has just blanked this page, in fact. It's not at all clear that this team even exists, and certainly nothing in the article can be trusted. Mel Etitis (Μελ Ετητης) 17:47, 14 Mar 2005 (UTC)
  • Delete: If it really is notable than why is the article written in first person? (a no-no for any encyclapedia) Deathawk 02:07, 15 Mar 2005 (UTC)
