Wikipedia:WikiProject Deletion sorting/Motorsport

This is a collection of discussions on the deletion of articles related to Motorsport. It is one of many deletion lists coordinated by WikiProject Deletion sorting. Anyone can help maintain the list on this page.
- Adding a new AfD discussion
- Adding an AfD to this page does not add it to the main page at WP:AFD. Similarly, removing an AfD from this page does not remove it from the main page at WP:AFD. If you want to nominate an article for deletion, go through the process on that page before adding it to this page. To add a discussion to this page, follow these steps:
- Edit this page and add {{Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/PageName}} to the top of the list. Replace "PageName" with the relevant article name, i.e. the one on the existing AFD discussion. Also, indicate the title of the article in the edit summary as it is particularly helpful to add a link to the article in the edit summary. When you save the page, the discussion will automatically appear.
- You should also tag the AfD by adding {{subst:delsort|Motorsport|~~~~}} to it, which will inform editors that it has been listed here. You may place this tag above or below the nomination statement or at the end of the discussion thread.
- There are a few scripts and tools that can make this easier.
- Removing a closed AfD discussion
- Closed AfD discussions are automatically removed by a bot.
- Other types of discussions
- You can also add and remove other discussions (prod, CfD, TfD etc.) related to Motorsport. For the other XfD's, the process is the same as AfD (except {{Wikipedia:Miscellany for deletion/PageName}} is used for MFD and {{transclude xfd}} for the rest). For PRODs, adding a link with {{prodded}} will suffice.
- Further information
- For further information see Wikipedia's deletion policy and WP:AfD for general information about Articles for Deletion, including a list of article deletions sorted by day of nomination.
This list is also part of the larger list of deletion debates related to Sports.

After a deletion discussion it was decided to merge Wikipedia:WikiProject Deletion sorting/Motorsports into this page. For the archive of WikiProject Deletion sorting/Motorsports, see Wikipedia:WikiProject Deletion sorting/Motorsports/archive.

Following up on Talk:Australian Grand Prix#Merge proposal, there is support for deletion on the grounds of notability, with no suitable merge target as an alternative to deletion. The results are unreferenced; the single reference is not independent of the topic. Klbrain (talk) 16:12, 27 June 2024 (UTC)
- Note: This discussion has been included in the deletion sorting lists for the following topics: Motorsport and Australia. Shellwood (talk) 17:04, 27 June 2024 (UTC)
- Delete – Agreed, no independent notability. Any content worth preserving (I don't think there is any) could be merged to Australian Formula 3. 5225C (talk • contributions) 17:16, 27 June 2024 (UTC)
- Delete minor support event that hasn't being run for 17 years BFC Aspie (talk) 17:28, 27 June 2024 (UTC)

This article only references corporate sources. It does mention a book, but unless this book can be sourced - which it so far has not been. Fails WP:GNG and WP:NCORP for these reasons. Checking the Italian and Swedish versions for sources proved unfruitful, and with the book being prohibitively expensive to fix the reference (which is incorrect on publishing date) it is very difficult to see this being notable.

- Comment: I agree based on these sources this seems notable, I don't have WP:LIBRARY access so much appreciated. If no other arguments are put forward this seems to pass WP:GNG JM12624 13:18, 26 June 2024 (UTC)
Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
