Not a notable sporting venue. The stadium was temporary, built for one game. It's the game (Fort Bragg Game) that has enduring notability, not the venue. All information on the venue is on the game's page. – Muboshgu (talk) 18:57, 22 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]

• Redirect to Fort Bragg Game per nom. --Metropolitan90 (talk) 04:03, 23 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep or Redirect Disagree that this facility isn't notable, as Google yields many articles about the construction of the facility and the unique circumstances relating thereto. At most, a redirect should be maintained. - Bbny-wiki-editor (talk) 07:03, 23 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • I wouldn't disagree with a redirect either to the game or the relevant section on Fort Bragg, but I don't think the stadium (which again, no longer exists) is notable outside of the context of the game. – Muboshgu (talk) 16:21, 23 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]

The fact the stadium no longer exists is irrelevant to the notability issue, and most minor league ballparks that have a page here are non-notable outside of the context of the games played therein. - Bbny-wiki-editor (talk) 20:27, 23 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]

• Keep The argument that it's non-notable outside of the game is irrelevant. Everything is non-notable outside of the things that make them notable, and hosting major league baseball games (or even minor league baseball games) makes venues notable.

• Redirect to Fort Bragg Game. This stadium was built for the one game and then promptly disassembled. The article contains no additional information that is not already found in the game article and since it had no other use there is nothing more that can be added.Spanneraol (talk) 14:21, 29 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]

• redirect per above. Mangoe (talk) 14:24, 30 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
• Redirect to Fort Bragg Game. I say this a bit reluctantly, because I do ascribe to the baseball notion of "hallowed ground". But the fact that this was known, in advance, to be a temporary ballpark leads me to conclude that it is simply one aspect of the game itself.
