Non-notable association football club. Fails WP:GNG and Wikipedia:WikiProject Football/Notability Walter Görlitz (talk) 05:54, 24 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Keep Olympic gold medalists are most definitely notable. Sportsfan 1234 (talk) 19:29, 24 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]
  • Withdraw nomination. I misread the year as 1981. Clearly notable. Walter Görlitz (talk) 20:01, 24 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep - Was this a joke? This is one of the most famous football teams in the nation! I'd suggest User:Walter Görlitz restrict themselves to only trying to delete articles in areas of which they are familiar. One shouldn't have had to have read the article closely to know this! And a clear lack of research, given that any team that has represented the nation internationally got there in a national competition! Nfitz (talk) 01:59, 25 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]
  • Perhaps Nfitz can keep his opinions to himself. I already requested that it be withdrawn. Walter Görlitz (talk) 03:21, 25 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]
    • I disagree. It's such a shocking nomination. Perhaps User:Walter Görlitz should properly research future AFD candidates before proposing deletion of such a massively famous team that anyone with awareness of the history of soccer in this country would instantly recognize. Ignoring the miss of the Olympics in the article, did you even read it? Surely the multiple references of induction into the Canadian Soccer Hall of Fame was a huge giveaway!

      • I did properly research this AfD. I looked at Google for sources. Found Canadian Soccer History-Great Teams Galt FC 1904 and nothing else. The references were just added now. So WTF dude. Walter Görlitz (talk)
      • I think I see the problem now, I'm not from Southern Ontario. I had never even heard of the team despite being very aware of Canadian association football. Walter Görlitz (talk) 03:38, 25 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]
