Cheer C.P.S.

(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

Cheerleading squad of a 500-student school in Chile. Made two trips to the US. No indication of notability. Zanhe (talk) 23:12, 13 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Keep Clear systemic bias over here (just because it is not an US/European team does not mean it is non notable in this English-language Wikipedia). The article is supported by national and international sources, they have been recognized by the (former) President of Chile, and have had some sort of triumph in their US trips. Clearly WP:NOTABLE complying. Küñall (talk) 01:21, 14 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Re accusation of systemic bias: I have also PROD'ed Texas Rangers Six Shooters. In the Category:Cheerleading organizations, there isn't a single article for a high school cheerleading squad. -Zanhe (talk) 01:34, 14 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Well, as an inclusionist, my belief is that an article is well referenced, it should not be deleted. This article is one of those. With 19 references in total (9 local, 6 regional, 3 national, and another one from social networks), it is a definite proof that this subject is notable; it complies with all of the WP:GNG points.

Delete. Team is largely unknown outside Pichilemu (and perhaps outside its school). Kuñal, you should absolutely move a lot of Pichilemu stuff over to a special Wikia about Pichilemu. This team is just one of many irrelevant articles related to Pichilemu (e.g. Pichilemu post-office building). Sietecolores (talk) 02:09, 14 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]
- Sietecolores, I don't understand what's your problem with Pichilemu-related stuff. I don't get why you even suggest me to move to Wikia. Really, what's your problem? The team does not exist anymore (it disbanded last year), and references of national relevance (La Tercera, 24 Horas) prove the team is notable outside home. Besides, as I pointed above, it is GNG compliant. Küñall (talk) 03:09, 14 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]
- Besides, "Team is largely unknown outside Pichilemu (and perhaps outside its school)" is largely a personal appreciation. Sources in the article prove the contrary. --Küñall (talk) 03:16, 14 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  - A one time mention in La Tercera is not enough to idnicate notability. I have personally also been mentioned in El Mercurio, yet that does not make me notable for an own article in Wikipedia. I suggest you to mention this team in a general article about Sport in Pichilemu. Sietecolores (talk) 14:50, 14 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]
    - WP:GNG says the contrary; the article of La Tercera is an in-depth one about them. The collection of sources used in the article establish its notability. Disregarding that it comes from a high school, a college, or whatever. Küñall (talk) 15:02, 19 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]
      - Yep, but tiny local newspapers like Pichilemu News (edited by a person you probably know) and El Rancahuaso are difficult to use to establish encyclopedic notability. Sietecolores (talk) 15:13, 19 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]
        I don't get why you keep on making unjustified, personal presumptions ((edited by a person you probably know)) and which have no relation with the article's content. Like it or not, the article has relevant sources which, as I have said repeatedly, make it GNG, WP:NOTABLE compliant, and so it should be kept. --Küñall (talk) 21:32, 19 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]
        Nope your sources are not relevant. Pichilemu News can hardly be used to establish notability for a Pichilemu article. You haven't still mentioned if you know personally or not the editor of Pichilemu News. Why do I ask this? To avoid a WP:COI. Sietecolores (talk) 05:33, 20 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Delete. High school cheerleading squads are no more notable than any other high school sports teams, clubs, societies, choirs, bands or whatever. Doesn't matter where they come from. -- Necrothesp (talk) 13:07, 14 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]
