Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Curse of Shareef Abdur-Rahim
I'm the creator of the page, and I can assure you that I didn't make it up.  :)  This particular curse is oft-discussed among NBA fans, particularly of the teams Abdur-Rahim has played for.  (Like articles on the Curse of the Bambino and other more well-known hexes in sports, this article does not attempt to take a stand on whether the curse is ''correct'', only to document a phenomenon in NBA fandom and sporting culture).  That said--and this is why I abstain rather than vote keep on a page I have created--|verifiability remains an issue.  While sportswriters and others have made throwaway comments on the curse in articles on other topics, and message boards (an unacceptable source, for sure--aggregating the commentary in message boards, if we accept their contents as valid, strikes me as original research) contain reams of info on the topic, nobody of note has written ''about'' the curse in any detail--at least that I can find.  For that reason, I abstain and wish the community consensus to decide if what's out there is sufficient to meet  and
