TJ Rovinka

 * – ( View AfD View log | edits since nomination)

This is a long-unsourced article of a football club that seems to have never played in the highest Slovak First Football League. I can't find any significant coverage of this club that meets WP:GNG. My Google searches, even with "site:.sk" next to the club's name, only come up with club's official website and match reports, the former of which is not independent. Corresponding article on Slovak Wikipedia has been tagged for notability issues for years, which certainly may not help copy over English article. ⋆｡˚꒰ঌ  Clara A.

 * Comment. The team played on the third tier continuously from 2014 to 2022, and participated in the national cup. That's usually more than enough to merit inclusion. They might not be called "TJ Rovinka" in the coverage, probably just Rovinka. Geschichte (talk) 20:56, 26 June 2024 (UTC)
 * Note: This discussion has been included in WikiProject Football's list of association football-related deletions. GiantSnowman 18:07, 27 June 2024 (UTC)
 * Redirect to List of football clubs in Slovakia, where it can be added. That article is in need of an update/clean up anyway... GiantSnowman 18:11, 27 June 2024 (UTC)
 * The list page seems to fail WP:NLIST, so I suggest someone nominate it for deletion too or alternatively redirect to Football in Slovakia. ⋆｡˚꒰ঌ   Clara A. Djalim   ໒꒱˚｡⋆  11:42, 8 July 2024 (UTC)
 * Weak keep A list of Sportnet articles show the club has been consistently covered in local press in spite of refusing a promotion recently: SportingFlyer  T · C  21:07, 29 June 2024 (UTC)
 * Most of them are paywalled, though. ⋆｡˚꒰ঌ   Clara A. Djalim   ໒꒱˚｡⋆  10:24, 6 July 2024 (UTC)
 * That doesn't matter. SportingFlyer  T · C  12:45, 6 July 2024 (UTC)
 * Redirect to List of football clubs in Slovakia per above. This is an awful article with almost nothing behind it. Anwegmann (talk) 01:02, 30 June 2024 (UTC)
 * Article notability is based on the overall notability of the topic, not the state of the article. SportingFlyer  T · C  09:48, 30 June 2024 (UTC)

 * Keep the Sportnet coverage that SportingFlyer points seems in-depth to me - there's many, many articles - but that's only one publications. But there's other sources out there as well, and frequent coverage of their matches. one two. Nfitz (talk) 17:12, 9 July 2024 (UTC)
 * Bratislavský Futbalový Zväz looks like a blogspot to me... ⋆｡˚꒰ঌ   Clara A. Djalim   ໒꒱˚｡⋆  09:29, 12 July 2024 (UTC)

For me there are 6 instances (some overlapping) where I would argue for it being more than a trivial mention – see third column. In addition to the SME sources, the first source from Nfitz in their comment above (Deník) discusses a 2017 "Super Cup" match between winners of regional cups in the Czech Republic versus Slovakia. According to that, Rovinka played in that on account of having won the Bratislava football association cup beforehand, which I found a primary source for here. All in all, I feel this scrapes WP:GNG. More sources may of course exist. C679 15:45, 12 July 2024 (UTC) Relisting comment: Final relist. Opinion is divided between Redirect and Keep, no support for a Deletion. It would be helpful to get feedback on the source analysis which seems to indicate adequate coverage. Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, Liz Read! Talk! 01:51, 18 July 2024 (UTC)
 * Weak keep. Had a good look for sources, plus information in general about this team. They most likely never played in the second tier of Slovak football either. Sport.sk seems to have nothing about them at all. Looking at the SME sources provided by SportingFlyer, I have summarized details of those references to aid the discussion here.

 * Keep. I'm satisfied with Cloudz679's essential source analysis that sufficient RS has been found. Thank you. Thanks also to SportingFlyer for the many links to check. I'd sure like to see some sourcing applied. BusterD (talk) 12:16, 19 July 2024 (UTC)
