- Delete - Fan clubs are not inherently notable, and I find nothing to support this club's independent notability. — Jkudlick • t • c • s 19:37, 19 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
- I'm not offering any opinion about the disposition of this article, but would point out the nominator here has repeatedly blanked it. This is was it looked like at the time of nomination. 86.17.222.157 (talk) 20:27, 19 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete - no evidence of notability. GiantSnowman 21:37, 19 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
- Comment – @86.17.222.157 The nominator, User:Abdulla Sahil, didn't blank the page, his only edits to the page were this and this. It was actually the author who blanked it, therefore it may qualify for G7. Where the confusion may lie is that User:Ameer Abdullah the author actually added the AfD template to the article, but Sahil nominated it by creating this discussion and putting it in the AfD log. However, there's something more strange going on here, so i'm going to send GiantSnowman who's an admin a longer message. ★☆ DUCKISJAMMMY☆★ 02:45, 20 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
- Yes, I had assumed that the person adding the AfD template to the article was the nominator. 86.17.222.157 (talk) 11:05, 20 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete - regardless of the suspicious activity mentioned, the article clearly fails WP:GNG Spiderone 11:08, 20 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
- Redirect to Kerala Blasters FC, and write something about it using these sources. It is a reasonable alternative to deletion given the coverage of topic in multiple independent reliable sources. Anup [Talk] 00:39, 21 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
- Redirect to Kerala Blasters FC - there seems to be some significant coverage of the fan group because of a song they released, but this warrants at most a sentence in the club article. Fenix down (talk) 09:46, 21 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete. Article is not notable enough, and is poorly written. Another option would be to redirect. Spike789 Talk 21:56, 21 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete, pending evidence of non-trivial coverage from reliable publications. Regards, Yamaguchi先生 (talk) 23:16, 21 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
