This page is an archive of the proposed deletion of the article below. Further comments should be made on the article's talk page, if it exists; or after the end of this archived section. The result of the debate was delete. - Mailer Diablo 3 July 2005 10:04 (UTC)
This list is absolutely worthless. Only one other article, List of songs links to it. Perhaps creating a category would be a better option, but this one needs to go. I say delete.--Zpb52 17:19, Jun 26, 2005 (UTC)
- Delete, unmaintanable and not-encyc. This should go the same way as List of songs played at dances...you'll never guess....it's made by the same author. -Splash 17:57, Jun 26, 2005 (UTC)

- Weak Keep but rewrite and a criteria must be set for inclusion. I don't think this list should just be of any old songs, but rather of songs specifically associated with sporting events, such as "Charge!" for Hockey events, or "Take Me Out to the Ballgame". Just because a sporting event uses a top-40 song like "Whoop There it Is" doesn't mean the song should be listed otherwise, as Splash says, it becomes unmaintainable. 23skidoo 18:18, 26 Jun 2005 (UTC)
- Delete. Not encyclopedic. The list could conceivably contain every song ever recorded. AиDя01DTALKEMAIL 18:49, Jun 26, 2005 (UTC)

- Delete, per AиDя01D and Splash. Perhaps an article could be written on the practice of playing music at sporting events, players having "theme songs" to trumpet their entry on the field, etc. But this list would be unmaintainable. -- BDAbramson talk 19:33, 2005 Jun 26 (UTC)
- Delete. I have no problem with an article about songs associated with sports (e.g. We Are the Champions and You'll Never Walk Alone), but this article is too broad, unencyclopedic and unmanageable. Aecis 19:43, 26 Jun 2005 (UTC)

- Nice idea, but delete as too broad and unmaintainable. There might be some hope for the idea, though. - Lucky 6.9 30 June 2005 02:23 (UTC)
