Amateur Taiwanese sports club with very-weak-to-non-existent claims to notability, with little to back up said claims. CalendarWatcher (talk) 06:32, 21 October 2008 (UTC)

Baseball-softball is considered the national sport of Taiwan. Amateur softball in Taiwan is as big a deal as college football, which is amateur as well, in the United States. Whether a team has "claims to notability" should be decided by locals whom the team is based in, not by assumptions from people who never set feet on its home base. In this article, there is indeed sufficient backup to its notability claim, just not in English. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Gannilaomu (talk • contribs) 07:26, 21 October 2008 (UTC) Editor's ONLY contribution to Wikipedia, so far.
 * Keep. There's plenty of detail here, and I see no reason to delete. Fumoses (talk) 13:33, 21 October 2008 (UTC)
 * To say 'plenty of detail' is meaningless, since that's not a reason cited in nomination. Perhaps you would care to address those that were cited? --CalendarWatcher (talk) 13:38, 21 October 2008 (UTC)

 * Delete Non-notable amateur softball team. There are thousands of teams in the world and this one is no more notable than any of the others. Fails WP:ORG as there are no reliable references — X96lee15 (talk) 23:35, 21 October 2008 (UTC)


 * Delete No sources that prove notability. One of the "references" leads to the website of the Taipei Metropolitan Rapid Transit system.  Not exactly relevant.--Aervanath lives in the Orphanage 05:00, 24 October 2008 (UTC)
