The article itself seems like a small display ad without proper contextual information and lacks authoritative citing. It's also out of the bounds of WP:Notability guidelines. JackFredrickk801 (talk) 07:56, 31 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

• Keep - A well known sports complex in Iceland, has been significantly covered by the major national news media in the country for over 60-years, including in Vísir[1][2], Morgunblaðið[3][4] and Vikan[5]. Alvaldi (talk) 11:14, 31 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep - There are abundant sources in Icelandic that testify to its notability. It is an important community hub in Reykjavík and an important milestone in the development of the Icelandic community swimming pool using geothermal water, which has been widely covered (e.g. [6]). --Akigka (talk) 12:03, 31 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

• Keep as there are sources to warrant a pass of WP:GNG. It is more important what sources exist as per WP:NEXIST than the current state of the article. This article was only created the day before it was nominated and still being developed. -Kj cheetham (talk) 19:05, 31 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep: I've done some Google searching and found existing sources that significantly cover the subject in question in Icelandic, proving its notability. --Harbouri: Let's talk! (This is a legitimate alternative account for Harobouri.)
• Keep as per above. Also, as the nominator is blocked as a sockpuppet, could probably be speedy kept as per WP:DENY. Joseph2302 (talk) 08:54, 3 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]
