Nowhere near meeting WP:GNG, coverage is either trivial or not independent, and even the trivial coverage is in sources of unclear reliability. _signed,Rosguill ^talk 03:19, 22 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Comment If this were to be deleted, most articles in the Cosmopolitan Soccer League would need to be deleted as they are playing the same level of football (eg. New York Pancyprian-Freedoms). Willbb234^Talk (please ((ping)) me in replies) 13:22, 22 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

The Pancrypian-Freedoms are at least three-time national cup winners. SportingFlyer T·C 14:26, 25 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Comment Why are you continually targeting this article for deletion? There are sources cited, far more than some articles like Manhattan SC, and there will only continue to be more as time passes. As user Willbb234 said, if this article were to be deleted then there are others that would need to be deleted as well. Everything in the article is factually correct, has citations, and can also be confirmed by the league's website. The club exists, and having a wikipedia page adds to its credibility, furthering the opportunities for the players at the club. To delete the article would actively harm real people's lives and future possibilities, as the club is a benevolent entity helping people in difficult life circumstances through the sport of soccer. Furthermore, by not allowing the club to have an active wikipedia page, you are hindering the reputation and development of the sport of soccer in the United States. Most clubs operating this high up in a nations league system will have a wikipedia page, and it is important for international player transfers coming from KidSuper Samba that the club has a legitimate web presence. Furthermore, there are clubs playing in the lower divisions of the Cosmopolitan Soccer League that have fewer sources and less professionally maintained article pages, such as Williamsburg International FC. There's no reason to target this harmless article for deletion, please move on. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Trallazo4567 (talk • contribs) 07:21, 23 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

As nominator, no objection to redirect per the above vote. _signed,Rosguill ^talk 17:06, 23 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Redirect to Cosmopolitan Soccer League per nom and above; doesn't meet GNG, not notable, but even if it was, I'd still !vote redirect per WP:PAGEDECIDE. – Levivich 02:21, 25 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Delete Completely fails WP:GNG. Fine with a redirect. SportingFlyer T·C 14:26, 25 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]
