This was deleted at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/United Tournament but challenged at Wikipedia:Deletion_review/Log/2013_December_21. The result of the discussion was to relist the 'year' articles to obtain a clearer consensus. As the DRV closer, my role is procedural so I am neutral.

Keep. The tournaments are notable. The 2014 one was recently nominated for deletion in the Russian Wikipedia and was kept. --Moscow Connection (talk) 20:17, 1 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Keep I !voted to relist at the deletion review. After viewing both articles now, I believe that we should keep it, because it seems to have press coverage each year, and it makes sense to have articles about each year's tournament. TonyBallioni (talk) 21:01, 1 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Merge and redirect with United Tournament, which is ideally what should have been done after the last AFD. There is no evidence that the tournament is notable enough to merit an article for every single annual edition. Also the Russian Wikipedia notability issue is wholly irrelevant here.

- The Russian Wikipedia notability issue is relevant cause it is logical that people who can read Russian know better than people in the English Wikipedia. People in the Russian Wikipedia checked whether there was enough coverage of the tournaments, and there was. I'm telling you that there is enough coverage. If you can read Russian, look at the Yandex News Search results: [1]. --Moscow Connection (talk) 15:31, 2 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]

If you read Russian and if you know the context of the tournament then you will know the tournament is very notable and carries more weight than the Premier League Asia Trophy which is a tournament which has articles about seasons. 2.125.165.111 (talk) 15:27, 3 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Keep. Notable tournament with big media coverage in Russian/Ukrainian media with special sections/tags in it: [2] [3] [4] [5]. Attempt to create the United Russia-Ukraine league in future. NickSt (talk) 14:49, 3 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Keep. A notable tournament with huge coverage and a lot of importance in the context of Russian-Ukrainian football. More important than the Premier League Asia Trophy that's fore sure, because the United Tournament comes in the context of uniting the championships. 2.125.165.111 (talk) 15:18, 3 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]
