Lacking secondary sources to establish notability. All sources are primary. Trivial and non-notable. Fails WP:GNG. Also see WP:SPORTCRIT. Zackmann08 (Talk to me/What I been doing) 01:44, 13 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • Weak Keep I like the explanations of the qualification process spelled out in its own article such as this, especially given how much attention Australia and New Zealand pay attention to these levels. Given the number of ice hockey players who participate it probably should be listed there as well.18abruce (talk) 00:00, 21 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep Qualifications for world championships are generally considered notable if the championships themselves are, which contrary to nominator's bad faith nominations, they clearly are. Not only that, this is part of the championship itself, much like the lower divisions in the Ice Hockey World Championship. As such, clearly notable and nomination is disruptive.

  • As Shawn in Montreal said, There is no free pass any pro team being inherently notable. Stop attacking my motives and saying my nominations are in bad faith or disruptive. I am following the rules and policy. You are routinely not WP:AGF. Discuss the article on its merits, not my personal motives. --Zackmann08 (Talk to me/What I been doing) 20:56, 23 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • No one claimed there was a free pass, just said they are for the most part notable. Generally you would have to go out of your way to find a professional sports team that didn't meet GNG. I can find sources for lowest of levels of amateur sports, nevermind the top leagues of a professional one. Secondly, this nom isn't about pro teams. It is about World Championships. The things, which generally are considered to give the athletes that play in them notability which pretty much indicates that the championships themselves must be notable. -DJSasso (talk) 02:15, 24 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]
