[edit] Vojvodina national football team

Vojvodina national football team (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs) – (View log)

This football (soccer) team is not internationally recognized, according to the article, and makes no other assertion of notability. While I do not believe that this meets WP:N or WP:NOT indiscriminate collection of information; I am bringing this to AfD instead of prod as I believe others will contest me on this point.

  • Delete It's more that it fails WP:V. Following the link in the article led me nowhere useful. A google search gave a lot of info about FK Vojvodina, but nothing about this article's subject. Darkspots (talk) 20:48, 31 December 2007 (UTC)
Comment It seems like it's bad linking. I suspect the link is http://roonba.50webs.com/vojvodina.htm . The site uses frames so copying from the Address bar would simply give you the home page. JASpencer (talk) 12:47, 1 January 2008 (UTC)
  • Delete per rationale in nomination, and I would also suggest a similar examination of the other articles linked from List of non-national representative teams in men's football. Many of them are also of the same form (non-national team that played a very small number of games). — Andrwsc (talk · contribs) 21:21, 31 December 2007 (UTC)
  • Delete, too thin. Punkmorten (talk) 10:15, 1 January 2008 (UTC)
  • Mild Delete or Merge. I have nothing against these teams per se. I support a rubbish team and I like small nations, so temperamentally I want to keep the articles. Perhaps we could incorporate them into an article on the league/tournament/informal arrangement that these small nations seem to play in. I have another issue in that I'm not sure that on its own that http://roonba.50webs.com/ meets the reliable sources guidelines and would really like to see a second source such as a team website or other references.

Comment I've added a query to the Reliable Sources noticeboard: [[1]]. —Preceding unsigned comment added by JASpencer (talk • contribs) 18:55, 3 January 2008 (UTC)
Reply to query - I would say "No, it isn't reliable". I see no information on the site in question to indicate that it is anything but personal fan page. As such, it is not reliable. Don't know enough about football or Vojvodina to opine on the AfD. Blueboar (talk) 01:50, 4 January 2008 (UTC)
  • Speedy Delete - This article seems to be a hoax, with no reliable sources having any information about this. // laughing man 22:34, 1 January 2008 (UTC)
  • Delete Draws many comparisons with the Normandy national team article - also up for deletion. Not enough detail to warrant interest or sources to verify.  Carlyle 3
