Minor League Basketball Association

[edit]

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

A search for this league turns up only its own primary webpage. There are no news sources that meet WP:GNG. Possibly WP:TOOSOON, but the only independent source reporting on it is a guy who tracks these non-news covered leagues. Recreate if they make an actual newspaper somewhere. I recommended a draft space article first until it meets WP:GNG and it was at Draft:Minor League Basketball Association, but it was recreated (I am not against it going back into draft status or a user space). I prodded and it was de-prodded without improvement or reason given. This league currently has less actual coverage from news sources than the recently deleted Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Canadian Arena League (which I know is WP:OTHERSTUFFEXISTS argument, but it a similar comparison).

Delete League has no literal schedule and for a reason that is plain indecipherable, doesn't play with the NBA season (the entire point of a minor league is to play in the major league season so players move up). Basically seems like yet another place for teams that don't want be associated with/pay the dues for the current mess that is the American Basketball Association to play amateur basketball (which is what the Minden Knights Facebook calls it), so this isn't even a minor league.

Delete Fails WP:GNG and WP:CORPDEPTH with lack of significant coverage from multiple independent sources. Perhaps it is just WP:TOOSOON if the league finally takes off at some point.—Bagumba (talk) 15:59, 29 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
