:({{Find sources AFD|title=Canada SailGP Team}})

Nominated as there is nothing here to assert notability, despite the WP:RS. Now, this is my accessment of sources, ignoring all WP:PRIMARY as they do not count for notability.

• One by Sail Canada concerns about the team captain winning about an award and his role in the team
• One by Scuttlebutt Sailing News is about the team advertising for a new captain as that captain has been released from his contract
• Two by CTV news and another by CBC News is about the event in Halifax, less about the team

In short, none of these help assert notability for the team, thus fails WP:GNG. SpacedFarmer (talk) 22:48, 15 August 2024 (UTC)

• :Keep Thank you for taking the time to review this page. I agree and take your point regarding this page relying heavily on WP:PRIMARY and currently only having four WP:RS. This risks the page failing to meet notability standard based on Wikipedia:Common_sourcing_mistakes_(notability). However, there exists plenty of notable and reliable secondary sources that would address the concern regarding WP:GNG. I am advocating that this page is not deleted but rather has a template appended giving editors opportunity and time to remedy the concerns raised and improve the article.

• ::{{Re|Vonkiegr8}} Hi there! My concern with this is the lack of non-primary coverage of the subject in general. Looking through various search engines, the vast magority of WP:RS are not actually talking about the candian team, they are talking about races in canada. These sources are simply trivial mentions of the subject.
• ::Those concerns aside, I think your proposed template l, or better yet the Template: Notability would be sufficient to mark the page as not having enough WP:RS. Wibbit23 (talk) 19:13, 16 August 2024 (UTC)

• ::I also wanted to add that this page has already been identified by two different WikiProjects for improvement, see Talk:Canada SailGP Team. These project teams should be given the opportunity to do so. Vonkiegr8 (talk) 03:05, 16 August 2024 (UTC)

• Delete Agree that this fails GNG. Agree with your notability interpretation of the resulting reliable sources. Wibbit23 (talk) 23:44, 15 August 2024 (UTC)

• Delete. Looks like a similar case as the USSailGP Team; mostly primary and self-published sources. And lacking significant coverage in independent reliable sources to prove notability. Sadly, not much improvement can be done on the page since it is already seen that there is no WP:SIGCOV. Prof.PMarini (talk) 17:26, 19 August 2024 (UTC)
