Extremely non-notable football competition. Only Google results seem to be Wikimirrors, Facebook, etc. No hits at all in Google News, suggesting the tournament got no coverage whatsoever -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 20:56, 18 February 2011 (UTC)

 * Delete. According to a comment on this page the so-called 'Wales' team come from the Cardiff and District Premier League. That's tier 7 in the not-exactly-mighty Welsh football league system.  Stu.W UK (talk) 21:55, 18 February 2011 (UTC)
 * Delete as above; a minor, minor tournament. GiantSnowman 12:25, 19 February 2011 (UTC)
 * strong support non-FIFA football tournaments may not get as big a coverage but they do have a large presence (see the size of the teams for the football tournament). at any rate, how does it become non-notable all of a sufdden? because 1 person sugested a possible from the 2010 edition? (which was obviously ready for deletion as it didnt happen) it was pertinent and heavily viwed/edted when it happened.
 * also, voting is not tallied per  Stu.W UK just because one team is listed wrongly doesnt make th e whole page non-notable to delete. One can improve instead of deleteing it.

 * Comment Lihaas - find some evidence of WP:N and I'll change my vote. From what I could see from google, Chris is right - no news articles and a few fan comments Stu.W UK (talk) 22:37, 20 February 2011 (UTC)

 * Notability is not inherited. The FUEN is a notable organisation, but their football tournament isn't. It's like saying a barbecue is notable if it's hosted by the UN. I have no idea why I thought of that as an example, but there you go. You've edited about a billion articles so I'm sure you know all this. Find sources that meet the WP:GNG then it'll be notable.Stu.W UK (talk) 15:05, 22 February 2011 (UTC)


 * Delete - I found this and this which is a rather meagre amount of sourcing for a soccer tournament.  Coverage of the tournament as it progressed appears not to have really happened.  I am not convinced of notability with the sourcing I've found and the article itself has no independent sources. -- Whpq (talk) 14:02, 22 February 2011 (UTC)
