[edit] Up and Under Football Club

Put up for speedy deletion but has an assertion of notability so relisted here. I am listing it out of process and not expressing an opinion. Tyrenius 18:56, 22 July 2006 (UTC)

  • Delete as a non-notable local club. --Hetar 18:57, 22 July 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete non-notable local club that won a non-notable tournament. Metros232 19:01, 22 July 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete. It needs clarification and consensus as to how far down the system football clubs in England go and still rank as "notable". This lot play at Level 18. Most of the clubs down to about Level 11 (and an ever increasing number of those below that) appear to have their own article. I love non-league football (semi-professional/amateur football below the top four divisions for those of you not in the UK!), but I think what we've got now seems a bit over-the-top. - fchd 20:10, 22 July 2006 (UTC)
  • Comment - now that is impressive; how do you find out at what level a club plays? BlueValour 22:38, 22 July 2006 (UTC)
    • Delete. The article about this team's league, Devon and Exeter Football League, indicates that the Devon & Exeter top division is at Level 12. Then there are five more divisions below that, and after that then comes the division this team is in, which would be Level 18. That's a bit too low to warrant encyclopedia articles about the teams in that division. --Metropolitan90 06:02, 23 July 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete Several levels too low to justify an article. Oldelpaso 09:30, 23 July 2006 (UTC)
