[edit] Upper Beeding F.C.

Upper Beeding F.C. (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs)

non-notable team in the 12 level of English football Geoffrey Spear 18:28, 21 December 2006 (UTC)

• Weak Keep A google search shows up about 300 unique hits. Thus, this article has the potential to be substantally verified. This article is also part of the non-league football project, which is a sub-project of Wikipedia:WikiProject Football. If this article is deleted, it will most likely be re-created in the future when the non-league football project grows more substantially. --Siva1979^{Talk to me} 19:48, 21 December 2006 (UTC)
• Keep Up until this year, the club played in a league in which clubs are considered notable, the Sussex County League.--Balerion 20:00, 21 December 2006 (UTC)

Comment - the article asserts that they played in Division 3 of that League, which is at Level 11, below the guideline in WP:CORP. Geoffrey Spear 20:31, 21 December 2006 (UTC)

Comment - there are several leagues which seem to be exceptions to this rule, including the SCL Div 3, Wessex League Div 2, South Western League, Devon County League, and Central Midlands League. --Balerion 20:41, 21 December 2006 (UTC)

Then the clubs in those divisions should also be deletable. Delete this club. -- Bpmullins | Talk 20:46, 21 December 2006 (UTC)

• Keep Even at this level, the clubs are worthy of an article especially as they can move up the football structure. Daemonic Kangaroo 21:34, 21 December 2006 (UTC)
• Strong delete. Utterly non notable club with no important history, not even meeting the already low standard for English football clubs (level 10 is fairly low). It has no permanent field, and an average league attendance of 30 persons... (this was probably a wee bit higher when they played a division higher, but still...). Of the 30 distinct Google hits[1], this[2] and this[3] are the most relevant ones, and neither is very convincing. Fram 09:27, 22 December 2006 (UTC)
• Strong delete Fails WP:CORP which states that only participating in levels 1-10 make a club inherently notable. Qwghlm 14:04, 22 December 2006 (UTC)
• Delete - never played at level 10 or higher. As for the theory that this should be kept because there is the theoretical chance for them to move up, that applies to virtually any club/team in England. - fchd 17:47, 23 December 2006 (UTC)

• Delete - Fails WP:CORP. Also, not a crystal ball. No significant sourcing provided that might allow an exemption. TerriersFan 19:28, 27 December 2006 (UTC)
• Delete below the bar for notability. Oldelpaso 14:29, 28 December 2006 (UTC)
