Wikipedia is not a stats directory per WP:NSPORTSEVENT. I would redirect this to a team page per the guidance, but that guidance isn't applicable here. TheSandDoctor ^Talk 05:12, 31 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

• Comment - As I pointed out in Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/1992 Indy Lights season, WP:NSEASONS is of no relevance here as this article is not about the season of a single team, so I'm unsure what the deletion rationale is for this article. A7V2 (talk) 12:38, 31 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

  Thanks for the catch. Amended to reflect WP:NSPORTSEVENT, which says basically the same thing. --TheSandDoctor ^Talk 18:26, 31 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

• Keep There is no valid basis for deleting this article. Not to WP:OTHERSTUFF but seasons of virtually every other professional motorsports league has articles. Why were these four seasons singled out? Because the nom thought the body was a bit light - that can be fixed and is not a reason to delete. -Drdisque (talk) 18:10, 2 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep Why is this one of the four seasons that are been sighted out as this motorsport season was essentially the second tier of CART until 2002 where IndyCar picked that up. Really the page needs to be modernized instead of being deleted. HawkAussie (talk) 01:01, 3 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep - I'm not convinced that WP:NSPORTSEVENT is relevant either since these are season articles not just a single event (not that I feel it is relevant to even individual races but that is not under discussion here). It's unreasonable to expect there to be lots of online sources for racing from before the internet took off, but there are books and news articles which unfortunately I don't have access to. As others say, these articles may be undersourced, but they are still notable. A7V2 (talk) 00:53, 5 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
