S.C. Esmoriz (2nd nomination)

 * (2nd nomination) – (View AfD) (View log)

Notability hasn't been established. Completely unsourced. No results from Google books or News Archive. Virtually no english language results from google apart from Wikipedia. Addhoc 10:02, 10 March 2007 (UTC)

 * Comment According to Portuguese Second Division this team plays in the third tier of Portuguese football. Is that level notable?  I'm not sure..... ChrisTheDude 09:20, 13 March 2007 (UTC)
 * Note: This debate has been included in the list of Portugal-related deletions.   -- ChrisTheDude 09:22, 13 March 2007 (UTC)
 * Keep - if English clubs are notable down to Level 10, I see no reason why Portuguese clubs are not at Level 3 (or possibly several layers lower). - fchd 16:28, 13 March 2007 (UTC)
 * Keep per Mr Rundle. The Portuguese league, whilst not up there with the Premiership or La Liga, is still a strong league, so I'd say that a club just two levels lower should be notable.  The article does need some serious work, though - you can understand why someone would look at the minuscule amount of info here and assume non-notability......

 * Keep. Seems a bit of a non-brainer really. The stub certainly needs expanding, infact I'll add a sentence or two now. aLii 12:21, 14 March 2007 (UTC)
 * Keep per WP:BIAS: it's a level-3 team. Anyway, a lack of English-language sources is not a reason to delete the article.  I could suggest linking any Portuguese sources in an "External links" section along with pt icon, then tagging the article for translation per notenglish, and finally describing the situation on the talk page.  This is, however, not the actual intended use of notenglish, so whether anyone chooses to do this is up to h(er|im).  -- Black Falcon 07:24, 15 March 2007 (UTC)
 * Keep - my basic rule of thumb for notability for a club is they are notable if they participate regularly in their respective national association's senior cup (this is where the level 10 rule for English clubs is derived from). Based on that is clearly the case for this club, so it should stay. Qwghlm 17:40, 15 March 2007 (UTC)
