Non-notable local football club which doesn't appear to be involved with anything that would pass WP:N. PeterSymonds | talk 21:58, 27 April 2008 (UTC)

FK Makedonija 1970 is a traditional football club in the multiethnic municipality Kreuzberg of Berlin and is the second oldest football club in Berlin founded by immigrants (first being Türkspor, established in 1969). so it is a notable football club. Cukiger (talk) 05:42, 28 April 2008 (UTC)

But it is not a professional club; thus it is not notable. weburiedoursecretsinthegarden 15:55, 28 April 2008 (UTC)
No policy states that only fully professional clubs are notable, there are dozens, if not hundreds, of articles on WP on semi-pro teams, however this seems to be a really low-level completely amateur team, whose only supposed claim to fame is that they were not quite the first German team to be founded by immigrants........

  • Comment - It would help if we knew what the 'Jugoliga' was - that would make deciding this team's notability a lot easier. I haven't found anything on Google yet. Bettia (talk) 15:19, 2 May 2008 (UTC)
From the name I would estimate that it is a local league run by immigrants from the former Yugoslavia. GiantSnowman 15:34, 2 May 2008 (UTC)
In fact the article specifically states "The league was established by Yugoslavian expatriates and collapsed when that country broke up." It's not very surprising that Google turns up nothing on a local recreational league which folded over a decade ago ChrisTheDude (talk) 21:31, 2 May 2008 (UTC)
