The result was merge‎ to Anguilla at the Commonwealth Games. Based on comments by participants, I'm finally closing this discussion as a Merge. Liz ^{Read! Talk!} 00:34, 28 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Lacking in-depth secondary source coverage. Unnecessary fork. Many of these articles have already been deleted, see AfD at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Dominica at the 2010 Commonwealth Games. AusLondonder (talk) 14:23, 30 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

• Note: This discussion has been included in the deletion sorting lists for the following topics: Events, Sports, and Caribbean. AusLondonder (talk) 14:23, 30 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep Article is sourced. The previous discussion (which I started) were articles that only stated the country competed, with no other information. Those should be deleted. Sportsfan 1234 (talk) 14:30, 30 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  Three primary sources? AusLondonder (talk) 14:36, 30 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  I think you need to review what primary sources are. Sportsfan 1234 (talk) 14:41, 30 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  Here are other sources and the nominator clearly did not do a WP:BEFORE. These all mention Anguilla's appearance at the games. Together it should be just enough to pass WP:GNG.

• Strong merge to Anguilla at the Commonwealth Games. A bad idea for a standalone article, in that the potential for growth is limited. Geschichte (talk) 17:55, 30 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  As a WP:ATD, Id agree (especially for the smaller CGAs) Sportsfan 1234 (talk) 00:52, 31 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
Relisting comment: Relisting to see if there is a stronger consensus for a Merge. The article being discussed could easily overwhelm the skimpy target article, Anguilla at the Commonwealth Games.

• @Liz I'm not worried about overwhelming a skimpy target article. It's precisely because Anguilla at the Commonwealth Games is skimpy that it needs to be fleshed out, i.e. with writeups of every year Anguilla participated. If anything, it's the presentation of the results in tables that makes it bulky. Some of it could be converted to prose, useless sub-headers removed etc. Geschichte (talk) 14:04, 19 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
