  • Comment - Here's the Danish article on the team. There might be worthwhile information there, to at least establish notability, if anyone can read Danish. matt91486 (talk) 17:42, 21 February 2008 (UTC)
    • And confusingly, here seems to be the official website, with a Swedish domain address? I think it's possible that the club could be notable, but it'll require someone with knowledge of Norsk languages to put this together adequately to see. matt91486 (talk) 17:45, 21 February 2008 (UTC)
    • I also tracked down the official league standings page here. I'm not sure if any of this means anything, it's hard to tell what exactly level of Danish football there is. Maybe looking in the Danish press from around the club establishment would note if it was worth having an article on or not. But without knowing the language, that's the best I can do. matt91486 (talk) 18:02, 21 February 2008 (UTC)
  • Comment I'm slightly confused. There seems to be some Swedish Bosna 92 from Örebro, playing in the 6th Swedish division, hence the domain name. I can't find anything about the Copenhagen side, if one exists. BanRay 06:27, 22 February 2008 (UTC)
    • Yeah, I'm equally so. Because the main site has the Swedish domain name, but a team shows up in the Copenhagen standings, and the Danish article asserts they play at a Danish ground. And there's no Swedish article about them. So, yeah, I'm not sure what to make of all of this. matt91486 (talk) 06:36, 22 February 2008 (UTC)
  • Comment The site you posted is the official website of Bosna 92 Örebro (Swedish club), they also have the results and standings of the Swedish 6th division there (link). So either the article is a hoax or there are two clubs named Bosna 92, something I personally doubt. Delete as either a hoax or nn, whatever it is. BanRay 09:45, 22 February 2008 (UTC)
  • As posted above, this seems to confirm that a team with this name does exist in Copenhagen, but it looks like the team plays in a very lowly league..... ChrisTheDude (talk) 09:54, 22 February 2008 (UTC)
  • After a quick look at Football in Denmark it would seem that the league this team plays in is the 8th level of Danish football. That seems far too low level for WP, hence delete ChrisTheDude (talk) 09:58, 22 February 2008 (UTC)
  • In all fairness, don't we have clubs in England that go down to like level 11? I don't remember the exact level off the top of my head, but I believe it's lower than 8. I'm not necessarily voting keep based on that, I just wonder if sometimes we're very Anglo-centric. matt91486 (talk) 16:41, 22 February 2008 (UTC)
  • Domestic Danish football is much much poorer than in England though, level 8 is probably about equivalent to English Sunday league football...... ChrisTheDude (talk) 22:53, 22 February 2008 (UTC)
  • I do wonder if perhaps the Swedish Bosna team would be notable then. It's at a higher tier; perhaps the article could be converted to cover that squad if it's determined to be. matt91486 (talk) 05:22, 23 February 2008 (UTC)
  • Delete - The nominated (Danish) club was founded in 1992 by Bosnian refugees from the war on Balkan, as was the Swedish club with the same name. Swedish Division 6 is the 8th tier and fully amateur and certainly not notable, I assure you. Denmark has half the population of Sweden, so I think it's safe to say that 8th tier Danish football is at most equally non-notable. Sebisthlm (talk) 16:10, 23 February 2008 (UTC)
    • Oh, I'm not trying to argue that the players should be notable. I just don't know offhand the specific crtieria for club notability; I know it's a lot less strict than for players. matt91486 (talk) 21:42, 23 February 2008 (UTC)
  • Delete doesn't assert notability. John Hayestalk 13:08, 26 February 2008 (UTC)
