Talk:Yankees Universe

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

I don't think that Yankees Universe should be an article on it's own. If anything, it should be a section of Yankees --Brewcrewer 14:31, 8 October 2007 (UTC)

If Red Sox Nation can be a page, why can't Yankees Universe. It is charity, has 501(3)c status and actually is tied to something (I would believe Red Sox Nation is more of just a pop culture reference). This is both a legitimate non-profit group and a pop culture reference. I can find at least 10 references to the term in established media sources such as The New York Post and The Daily News. I can move it or add to it, let me know what is right. I am new; just trying to present an arguement for it's having it's own space. I don't think it belongs merged in with the Yankees team page. —Preceding unsigned comment added by TunaWuna (talk • contribs) 22:28, 8 October 2007 (UTC)

Red Sox Nation is a well known pop-culture reference which validates its own article. Until Yankee Universe earns the same recognition it should not be an article on it's own. The fact that it's a charity makes no difference. Every charity cannot have it's own article. See Wikipedia:Notability for the guidelines of what is notable for a Wikipedia article. I think that its best place would be as a section in Yankees. But I guess that if you wish you to leave it as a seperate article and add to it, then do so. But watch out, it might get nominated for deletion. If it does, make sure to argue for a merge into Yankees. --Brewcrewer 06:49, 10 October 2007 (UTC)

I see the point, but not every caritable orgnization has famous spokespeople such as Yankees players, the general manager [Brian Casham] and gets constant TV publicity on networks such as [The Yes Network]. If this isn't large enough for a page, what is? The rules are very nebelous so it's hard for new people to tell. Everything I put out here seems to be challenged and I don't know why. It does not make one want to contribute. There is some pretty thin stuff covered on Wikipedia -- thinner than the stuff I have been putting out here but there are no questions about that.
