This is a forth division season results. Fails to satisfy Football notability Guidelines. scope_creep talk 18:22, 3 August 2014 (UTC)

  • Speedy keep The nominator does not appear to have read the guidelines they are quoting (which is actually an essay), as it does not make any reference to articles on league seasons. However, it does quite clearly state that "All leagues whose members are eligible for national cups are assumed notable." (Liga Bet clubs play in the Israel State Cup, and therefore the league meets this criteria), and therefore I see no reason why a league season article should be deemed deletable (particularly as they exist for numerous other regional, non-professional leagues). Number 57 18:27, 3 August 2014 (UTC)
  • Keep I second Number 57's remark. All IFA-affiliated leagues' members in Israel are eligible for the cup, and therefore, not only fourth tier meets the criteria, even fifth tier (which I plan to add in the future) and what was previously the sixth tier are eligible. Eranrabl (talk) 19:20, 3 August 2014 (UTC)

  • Delete - The league itself may be notable, but not sufficiently notable for an article about its individual seasons. The division is divided into regional groups, which has traditionally been an indicator that individual season articles are probably not required. – PeeJay 21:52, 3 August 2014 (UTC)
    • @PeeJay2K3: We have individual season articles about leagues down to level 9/10 in England. Do you not think it's a bit ridiculous that level four in Israel is not deemed as notable? (and yes, I know WP:OTHERSTUFFEXISTS, but it the precedent would suggest that being regionalised is not a problem for league season articles). Number 57 21:57, 3 August 2014 (UTC)
      • I was always under the impression that regional divisions weren't deemed automatically notable. If they pass WP:GNG, that's fine, but I think that only national divisions should have these articles. I'd be very surprised if those season articles about English level 10 divisions have anything beyond a minimal lead section and a series of tables. – PeeJay 22:04, 3 August 2014 (UTC)
        • There are at least two websites (in Hebrew) dedicated for Israeli lower leagues, from third to fifth tier (doublepass.sport5.co.il, goler1.co.il), as well not-as-deep coverage in major news websites (walla.co.il, one.co.il, panet.co.il, etc.) and coverage of individual teams in local news websites.

Franforce (talk) 01:02, 4 August 2014 (UTC)
  • Delete - fails WP:NSEASONS which is quite clear that only top professional leagues need there own season articles. Seems a big WP:NOTSTATS violation as well. @Franforce:, @Number 57: your comments seem to misunderstand that this is an AfD about a season article, not the league, unless I have misread them.

Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, Daniel (talk) 04:29, 25 August 2014 (UTC)

Procedural Note: This debate was closed as 'keep' by a non-administrator. This closure was in error, as there is no consensus whatsoever in the above discussion. While acknowledging that this discussion has been going on for some time and a resolution would be good, I have relisted for another 7 days so hopefully consensus can be reached one way or another in the additional period. Obviously, if that isn't possible, closing as "no consensus" would be appropriate. Daniel (talk) 04:31, 25 August 2014 (UTC)
