Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Spoofhound
to me, there are 2 things to look at here.  First, is the concept of the "Spoof Hound" Carnival Toy and the stated origin of the team name notable and verifiable.  I think the answer to that is clearly no.  All sources for this definition and explanation of a spoof hound are from http://www.halcyon.com/marcs/mascoths3.html this site (which apparently is based on submissions from the general public and is not in any way vetted or verified), the school website, and Wikipedia mirrors.  I just don't see enough |reliable sources to consider the supposed carnival toy and name origin to meet |verifiability requirements.  That said, the second thing to consider is if a high school mascot is notable enough to have a standalone article.  I think the answer to that is no as well and it appears to be pretty common practice that mascots are only mentioned in the school article.  I'd say merge, but the information has already been integrated into the Maryville High School article.  I don't see much of a compelling reason to keep this as a redirect unless there is a licensing reason to do so
