- Öland national football team (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) (delete) – (View log)
The bold title in the lead is definitely more accurate: Öland local football team. This is a representative team who played 3 exhibition matches against other Scandinavian islands. For their participation in international tournaments, 2 of those teams are notable. This team isn't. The citation given in the article is for an unsourced website. No games listed on the most comprehensive, sourced football stats site rsssf.com. In summary, fails WP:N and questionable WP:V Stu.W UK (talk) 00:26, 15 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

- Delete--but "spam"? Arma, did you look at the article? I wish there was a rule that any article that has Oland in it were automatically notable, but I'll grudgingly admit that since Oland is not a country it cannot have a national team. If only they'd destroy Oland bridge, that would be a start. Drmies (talk) 02:42, 15 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete have tried to google in Swedish for "Öland" "national team" in various forms and not found any hits. I've never heard about any (and I'm very confident that there doesn't exist any) inter-landskap championships (which would be the equivalent to county cricket) in any sport, so even on that it falls. chandler ··· 03:14, 16 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

- Delete, Öland is not a country, therefore it doesn't make sense that there'd be a "national football team". Lankiveil (speak to me) 06:51, 21 May 2009 (UTC).[reply]
