Leeds United Honours[edit]

(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

Duplicates basic information from Leeds United A.F.C. and then partially expands the stats with uncited, not entirely neutral commentary. NtheP (talk) 16:37, 19 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Leeds United Honours is a genuinely fact based page, set up, because I feel the Leeds United A.F.C. page does not show the full extent of Leeds United's history. In terms of the trophies Leeds United have won and the finals they have reached. I want to put across an unbiased and neutral tone, which support both sides of the argument. I try to describe each event as unbiased as I possibly can. I feel page viewers deserve to see a Leeds United page which shows honours won, events, runners up medals etc.... —Preceding unsigned comment added by Thomas347 (talk • contribs) 17:03, 19 November 2010 (UTC)<! --Thomas347 (talk) 11:13, 21 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I can't find similar articles (i.e. x-football club honours) for Manchester United, Arsenal F.C., Liverpool F.C., or Real_Madrid_C.F..--Johnsemlak (talk) 18:11, 19 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

This article does not duplicate basic information and events of Leeds United A.F.C., because Leeds United A.F.C., does not describe specific events such as The European Cup Final, Cup Winners Cup Final etc… Such as Referee Christos Michas's controversial decisions, which cost Leeds the Cup Winners Cup. Leeds United A.F.C. does not contain any of the finals Leeds have reached, as well as not stating any of the trophies Leeds have come runners up in. For example, Division 1. I describe specific events in an unbiased and neutral tone which supports both sides of the article. I believe this article is fit for purpose and should stay. --Thomas347 (talk) 11:09, 21 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

COMMENT One of the basic principles of Wikipedia is that WP:NOT#NEWS, there are plenty of places to read commentaries and reports on specific matches, this is not one of those places. Numerous other articles on wikipedia e.g Leeds United A.F.C., List of Leeds United A.F.C. seasons, History of Leeds United A.F.C. cover virtually everything in this article. On the tone sorry, but section headings like European Cup Final agony are not neutral. To anyone except a Leeds fan, there was no agony. NtheP (talk) 13:36, 21 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Delete - Nothing here that isn't already covered in other Leeds United articles (Cup finals they've played in can be found here). J Mo 101 (talk) 13:52, 21 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Merge to History of Leeds United A.F.C. if the level of detail isn't excessive, or to List of Leeds United A.F.C. records and statistics or Leeds United A.F.C. in Europe where appropriate, neither of which has any prose at all and could use some. But please write in a more neutral tone and add references to reliable sources independent of the subject. cheers, Struway2 (talk) 14:05, 21 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Delete All or most of the important info in this article is repeated elsewhere.--Johnsemlak (talk) 03:14, 22 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]
