The result was keep. Not a lot of substance to the delete arguments here, and this group nomination is problematic. Please make an individual nomination if you want the community to reconsider. A Traintalk 17:17, 29 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]

No notability established. Only link is a results database. Also the medalists are mostly red links (which again questions the notability of the event in itself). Sportsfan 1234 (talk) 21:17, 21 July 2017 (UTC)

- But the article needs more to it than just statistics to make it a full-fledged Wikipedia entry. There needs to be a block of text describing the history of Kenya International in addition to the statistics.TH1980 (talk) 00:42, 23 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]

- Agree to separate. Some articles also coverage in the news. Like LibrePrincess comment in Talk:Kenya International: duckduckgo.com/?q="Kenya+International"+badminton seems to bring up a few news sources that report on the events. standardmedia.co.ke, ugandaradionetwork.com, allafrica.com 1, allafrica.com 2, sportsnewsarena.com. I also added some references on Argentina International and Greece International, and i tried to improve all that articles. Stvbastian (talk) 14:02, 26 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep all. These are except for Singapore and Thailand the highest level international tournaments held in the respective countries and are sanctioned by the Badminton World Federation and Badminton Continental Confederations (and Singapore and Thailand are one of the most important countries in badminton and a second level tournament should be relevant like in the countries of similar importance in tennis for instance). All of the tournaments are similar to comparable events in tennis, or golf for instance. Additionally, there are enough sources here to pass GNG. Looking at some of the winners shows that these tournaments clearly attract some very good players. In comparison (stated in Wikipedia:Notability_(events)), College bowl games (not limited to BCS or College Football Playoff bowl games, see e.g. 2009–10 NCAA football bowl games) or All-star or similar exhibition games are notable. All of the mentioned articles for deletion above are of much bigger relevance than the cited college games. Additionally, similar events were already discussed in detail, with all of them as result Keep. Florentyna (talk) 19:08, 27 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]
