The result was no consensus on the subject, but the article is to be dealt with by WP:CP procedures. Mailer Diablo 09:37, 19 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Another copyvio. It has been edited with sentences moved about a bit but it is clearly taken from here. Look for 'After throttling USC 51-0, Notre Dame won the national championship while Michigan State ended up second.' at the end of a paragraph in both article and source, for example.

• Delete. Copyvio, not very encyclopedic anyway and IMO not worthy of inclusion. Grandmasterka 06:10, 13 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete as copyvio. --Coredesat talk. o.o;; 07:49, 13 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete per nom. Tychocat 11:42, 13 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep with cleanup This was, and still is, one of the most significant college football games ever played. It's still referred to as 'The Game of the Century'. --DarkAudit 14:40, 13 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

• Comment - I think that it would be very difficult to cleanup with confidence. All the article is taken from the source. IMHO it is not worth putting WP at risk simply to try to keep one article. BlueValour 15:49, 13 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

• Keep Either clean up or reduce to a stub per DarkAudit's reasoning. My father still yells "Play for the tie, Ara" whenever he sees Parseghian on TV. Wikipedia should definitely have an article on this game. JChap (Talk) 03:11, 14 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]
• Comment - If this article is kept, it must be rewritten from scratch. Paraphrasing the original sentence-by-sentence doesn't make it OK. Zetawoof^(ζ) 07:30, 14 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep, stubify and start over from scratch. Enough sources and accolades out there for this one. ~ trialsanderrors 11:56, 14 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]
  • Neutral per User talk:Angusmclellan's observation. I'm not salvaging this too if the college sports fans can't be bothered. ~ trialsanderrors 23:24, 18 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep per DarkAudit. The Copyright vio needs to be removed completely. Agne27 15:20, 18 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete still a copyvio, that tells me that none of those who favour keeping this really mean it. Angus McLellan (Talk) 17:22, 18 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]
