- The following discussion is an archived debate of the proposed deletion of the article below. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page (such as the article's talk page or in a deletion review). No further edits should be made to this page.
The result was redirect to TCR Touring Car without prejudice against a selective merge. I see consensus against retaining the page as a standalone article, with support for an ATD. Owen× ☎ 12:17, 27 May 2026 (UTC)
WSC Group
[Hide this box] New to Articles for deletion (AfD)? Read these primers!

Current sources as of nomination do not include any independent significant coverage. Performing a Google, Google News, and Wikipedia Library search resulted in no independent reliable sources with significant coverage on the company. Fails WP:GNG. Ecourter (talk) 05:28, 4 May 2026 (UTC)

- Keep unless a page is created for Marcello Lotti. This is the man that's looked after the world of touring car racing for 20 years, and more recently (under the WSC name) founded the TCR regulations and organised the World Touring Car Cup and TCR World Tour. Independent coverage obviously exists for all of this (, , , , , , , and much more on Autosport, TouringCarTimes and TouringCars.net). I'd contemplate merging WSC Group into Marcello Lotti if such article existed. MSport1005 (talk) 11:35, 4 May 2026 (UTC)
- Delete Appears to be created using an LLM. All but 2 sources are to the org's own website, the other two do not have bylines and appear to be press releases, similar to any other sources I could find online. Orange sticker (talk) 16:51, 5 May 2026 (UTC)
- The other two sources came from TCR Eastern Europe & IMSA Michelin Pilot Challenge (which were created by WSC...). As MSport1005 said, and as examples, there is plenty of information and sources about WSC. MotorsportFan0926 (talk) 15:16, 6 May 2026 (UTC)
- Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
Relisting comment: Source analysis please
Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, Spartaz Humbug! 05:55, 19 May 2026 (UTC)- Merge to TCR Touring Car, company was never notable for anything else.

- Redirect to TCR Touring Car where the subject is mentioned. Fails WP:CORPDEPTH for a stand-alone article. --K.e.coffman (talk) 11:09, 27 May 2026 (UTC)
- Already !voted delete but redirect or merge to TCR Touring Car is a reasonable alternative. Orange sticker (talk) 11:48, 27 May 2026 (UTC)
