Fails WP:NSEASONS and WP:GNG. Originally a redirect overturned by User:Quidster4040, who has since been blocked indefinitely, neither of the teams listed below appeared in the NCAA Tournament as laid out in NSEASONS. Consensus resulting in delete specific to 2021 season articles here, here, and here with similar deletion results for other years here, here, and here.

I am also nominating the following related pages for the same reasons as listed above:

Delete all per nom. I think these have been appropriately bundled, based on the existing consensus that they all fail to meet the WP:NSEASONS criteria by failing to qualify for the NCAA tournament. Additionally, I was unable to find significant coverage for each team season, so they appear to fail WP:GNG. Jay eyem (talk) 18:50, 26 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Comment: Please re-direct instead of delete as was done with previous season's pages. There are other pages that link to each of these and it will be cleaner if they don't show up as redlinks. Swimmer33 (talk) 20:24, 26 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
- Comment: Comment to a comment? Comment squared? Per WP:REDLINK, red links should indicate articles that could/should be created, which would be the opposite of what this AfD could result in if delete. Per WP:RPURPOSE, none of those feel like valid reasons for a redirection in this case. As such, in my opinion, the red links should be removed altogether and a redirction here is unnecessary.

Delete - no evidence of notability. Giant Snowman 20:25, 26 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

*Redirect to Boston College Eagles men's soccer. Season isn't notable enough for article space, but redirects are WP:CHEAP. Spf121188 (talk) 20:58, 26 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

- Comment: Yes, and on the flipside is that redirects are WP:COSTLY. As was demonstrated on all 4 of the presented articles, a redirect *was* intially done, then reverted as previously stated and hence the need for this AfD. GauchoDude (talk) 22:15, 26 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Delete per GauchoDude's above comment. Redirect it sounds like would likely be reverted to circumvent this process, so I'll change my !vote to delete. Spf121188 (talk) 13:42, 27 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Delete all they all fail WP:GNG, and redirecting will just cause problems of them being reverted again. Delete and then recreating the redirect (so the article content can't be reverted back in) would be okay. Joseph2302 (talk) 13:47, 27 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
