Deletion of History of Bengaluru FC

Comment: Three contributors above call for a merge '''''"back"''''' into the main article.  Hmmm.  Was this article forked from the article on the club?  Nope.  The record shows {{U|Coderzombie}} https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=History_of_Bengaluru_FC&type=revision&diff=723073431&oldid=723046042 wrote the first draft, of about 14K, on 2016-05-31.  If this were an actual fork, we would see something like 10-14K trimmed from the main article.  The record shows Coderzombie did edit the article about the club, on that date, but their edits https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Bengaluru_FC&type=revision&diff=722975051&oldid=722502409, https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Bengaluru_FC&type=revision&diff=723047317&oldid=723029489, were merely relatively minor mundane copy-editing.  So, this part of the merge suggestions is based on a misconception.  Coderzombie's creation of this article '''''followed''''' seven routine copy editing changes to the article about the club.  They cut nothing from the main article to create this article.  It seems to me that the creation of 14k of coherent and properly documented content is something we should applaud.  A general theme of those calling for delete or merge seems to be that the '''topic''' of the history of this sports club just doesn't seem significant enough to merit a standalone wikipedia article.  But wait a second, we are supposed to rely on GNG and other notability guidelines, when determining notability.  Sufficient references that cover a topic in detail is the gold standard there.  I don't remember any deletion or notability policy or guideline that says we should rely a feeling that a topic just doesn't seem significant enough to merit an article to determine notability.  Sorry, no offense, but basing an AFD opinion on whether a topic '''''SEEMS significant''''' is an instance of a lapse from the good advice at .  The main article is already pretty long.  As are 2013–14 Bengaluru FC season, 2014–15 Bengaluru FC season, 2015–16 Bengaluru FC season, 2016–17 Bengaluru FC season, and they seem coherent and well referenced, as well.  Forking off subtopics, when a main topic is already long is a perfectly reasonable thing to do.  Merge proponents routinely overlook the serious disadvantages of unnessary merges
