[edit] sources please

Google comes up with zero hits for "Basketball Federation of Kosova", and there is no "Kosovo national football team". Either keep only Albanian name and move article, or use full English translation per WP:MOS. Otherwise please give some references on this English name, and team. Thank you. // laughing man 04:11, 23 May 2007 (UTC)

It's a year later, and I undid your move, as the organization's official self-representation in English is "Basketball Federation of Kosova". And Google gives right now 1,130 hits for that search string in quotes: [1] and 74,200 without: [2]. One source is yesterday's official press release by the FIBA Central Board from its annual meeting in Beijing, where they denied the Kosovan federation membership, using this name [3]. Another is the federation's own official webpage in English: [4]. --Mareklug talk 05:31, 27 April 2008 (UTC)
