Football Amateur Club de Nice 1920

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Does not appear to meet WP:GNG. Greatest claim to notability is round of 64 in the Coupe de France in 1930. Corresponding article on French wiki has a lot more content but no citations to in depth coverage at independent reliable secondary sources signed, Rosguill talk 05:05, 12 September 2018 (UTC)

 * Keep Club was professional and played in the second division in the 1933-34 season. Although their results were ultimately annulled and they're historical and from France, a Google image search brings up photos from articles of the period and articles such as this which pretty clearly demonstrate them passing WP:GNG due to coverage of the second league at the time: .

 * Comment My issue would be with the 2018 club, which appears to be unrelated to the original club. The original club seems to be notable, but the 2018 club is certainly not notable. I would change the name of the article to match the name of the original club. Jack N. Stock (talk) 11:52, 12 September 2018 (UTC)
 * European football teams are refounded all the time. It doesn't make any sense to delete this article because the current organisation wouldn't pass a notability guideline, even though it does look like there's a WP:COI going on. What's the original name you would move it to? SportingFlyer  talk  02:00, 13 September 2018 (UTC)
 * I find it difficult to find reliable sources, but it looks like it should be FAC Nice. Jack N. Stock (talk) 02:50, 13 September 2018 (UTC)
 * FAC Nice is the short name of the club, I don't see anything wrong with the current name of the page per the detailed French article on the team. SportingFlyer  talk  04:14, 13 September 2018 (UTC)


 * Keep - as above. GiantSnowman 14:19, 13 September 2018 (UTC)
 * Keep and expand - As what a couple have said earlier in the discussion, they did compete in the second-tier of French Football when they went professional. What I do think it needs, is for it to be expanded to correspond with the team that is in question. This can be easily be done by using the French article as a guide to expanding the article from its stub status to possibly get it to a start at minimum.
