; '''Reason:''' Lacking in information for such an important team. Many other Bundesliga teams have substantially longer articles which is odd given that Bayern Munich is by far the most successful and most internationally known team in the league. The German article has much more information which could be easily incorporated into this article.

Past collaborations are found on the history page, while removed nominations may be found on the removed nominations page.

Articles to be improved can be nominated by registered users in the "nominations" section below, with an explanation of what work is needed. To nominate an article, you can copy the template that you will below. Please do not nominate articles involved in edit wars. Each Sunday, the article with the most support votes is chosen. Opposing votes are not counted, the nomination is an approval voting. In case of a tie, the candidate that was nominated first wins. Articles need three votes per fortnight to stay on the list. You can vote for as many articles as you like. As with any other vote on Misplaced Pages, sockpuppets are banned.

Renominating

An article that is removed from the nominations list for failing to receive the required number of votes by the stipulated date cannot be renominated till one month after the date it is moved to the current removed nominations page.

The current football improvement drive article is Italy national football team.

Considerations for nominators and voters

  • Giving reasons as to why an article should become the Football AID may convince others to cast their vote.
  • Can the wider football community easily contribute to the article? Or is it something only a small number of people will know about?
  • Is the article one which you are prepared to work on?

Nominations

The next project article is to be selected on Sunday June 24.

Please add new nominations at the bottom of this section.

Sparta Rotterdam

Nominated November 16 2007; needs at least 3 votes by November 30 2007
Reason:
  • Sparta Rotterdam is the oldest professional football club in the Netherlands, and up to a few years ago was one of only four clubs (along with Ajax, PSV and Feyenoord) to have played in the Eredivisie since its establishment in 1956. The club has won the national championship 6 times. It is also the club of the first Dutch football superstar, Bok de Korver. And on April 1, 2008, the club will celebrate its 120th anniversary. I think it would be a fitting tribute to have this article on the Main Page on that day. Aecis 01:47, 16 November 2007 (UTC)
