Talk:2014–15 Faroe Islands v Greece football matches

Merge proposal
I propose that 2015 Faroe Islands v Greece football match be merged into 2014 Greece v Faroe Islands football match, with the article re-named as appropriate. There is no argument in my opinion that these were both shock results of the scale meriting an article, but they come from the same qualification group, the content of both is fairly weak at present, and the second match in 2015 was somewhat less surprising due to the first result having occurred, plus the fact that the Faroes were at home. Merging these articles making mention of both would be a fairly easy task to accomplish in a technical sense and would also make sense logically in my opinion, without diminishing the achievements which made the matter notable, and presenting the match details together will make a stronger article in terms of its content. FYI who created both articles. I will also flag the proposal at WP:FOOTY for wider input. Thanks. Crowsus (talk) 17:55, 10 October 2020 (UTC)
 * I honestly think both should be deleted. Although wins for the Faroe Islands are very rare, especially against big nations like Greece, I don't think these matches are especially notable in the grand scheme of things. – PeeJay 19:43, 10 October 2020 (UTC)
 * [added day later] Doing that (delete both) did cross my mind too, but the Guardian ref for the first match states it was the biggest disparity ever in FIFA rankings. I'm sure there's a few other sources out there to back that claim up. To me that makes it statistically significant as well as newsworthy as an underdog win – I wouldn't suggest every single micronation win should get an article, although they are rare. But the first one of this pair does have that claim to 'biggest gap', and since they then beat them again in the same competition, makes sense to mention that on there as well.

 * You have a good point! I agree with your proposal. Let's rename it to 2014–15 Faroe Islands v Greece football matches. --Davidsousa1 (talk) 03:31, 11 October 2020 (UTC)
 * [added day later] Thanks; although this isn't a formal process like AfD with set rule (as far as I know) I believe the standard is to wait a month or so for all input. Assuming no major objections I'd be happy to assist with a merge after that if required, though I'm sure you would be able to do it fine. Crowsus (talk) 18:17, 11 October 2020 (UTC)
 * (Originally posted at WikiTalk Football) Support While they were two separate matches and not part of a two legged tie, both matches coming in the same group stage is enough for it to be in the same article in my opinion. Merging the two still creates an article of a appropraite length, as neither article is extremely long.RedPatchBoy (talk) 13:33, 11 October 2020 (UTC)
 * That's my bad really, should have said on Footy that comments are better here. Crowsus (talk)

 * Oh man, I completely forgot about this. Can you help in the merging process? Davidsousa1 (talk) 04:55, 21 May 2021 (UTC)
 * If no-one else finds time / inclination, I will have time to sort this on the weekend of 5th/6th June but probably not before.... Crowsus (talk) 04:59, 21 May 2021 (UTC)
