[edit] Notability

I addressed the notability issue briefly above. I will reiterate. There is a group of interested editors who are working towards writing and maintaining articles on German clubs that are historically significant or that have played fourth tier football or above. League templates exist for each of the fourth tier divisions and there are articles for close to 90% of the teams listed (more than 140 articles), as well as for many clubs which have since slipped to lower tier play. Significant sharing exists between de:Wikipedia and en:Wikipedia on the subject.

In a broader context, what makes a team notable has been the subject of frequent debate within Wikipedia:WikiProject_Football. The working definition of fourth tier and above is what is currently de facto being applied to German clubs. There are separate sub-projects specific to the football competitions of several countries, but one has not yet been established for Germany, although it probably begs one, as German football is significant both within the country and internationally. By way of example, Wikipedia:WikiProject Football/Italy task force has explicity set forth the objective of preparing articles for each Serie D club. Serie D is a fifth level circuit.

SV Bernbach isn't Bayern Munich or Liverpool F.C., but it doesn't deserve to be treated as cruft either. Wiggy! 22:46, 14 October 2007 (UTC)
