Just a thought

[edit]

With articles for 78 and 79, and no seasons for 80 and 81, why not just do 82 to 87? The lede might be more difficult to write, and while I confess I'd rather them all be single seasons, that might best fit the sources. Cake (talk) 17:27, 15 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

  • To be honest, I don't think 1878 and 1879 could withstand WP:GNG scrutiny as stand-alone articles. I could not find a single contemporaneous source of any kind for the 1878 and 1879 seasons let alone anything that would satisfy WP:SIGCOV. Grouping them together appears to be the best way to save them from deletion. Cbl62 (talk) 19:52, 15 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Another way the Swarthmore-Haverford rivalry is historically significant. Cake (talk) 08:46, 16 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
