Keep. Nominators rationale is frankly silly "can't be notable because baseball isn't popular"? Where does anything say that? Though as an alternative perhaps a Baseball in Sweden article that can incorporate all the different leagues in the country. Spanneraol (talk) 02:06, 24 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Keep as a clearly WP:POINTy nomination for bandy articles in the US being nominated. Popularity has nothing to do with notability. Did you make an honest effort to find sources in newspapers or google? -DJSasso (talk) 15:38, 24 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Judging from the discussions about American bandy clubs, popularity in the country has everything to do with it. Your nomination of Minnesota Bandolier is more pointy than this one and you know that. Bandy boy (talk) 18:36, 24 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy keep. Bad faith nomination. Reso lute 16:08, 24 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]
