Uganda national under-23 football team

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

Another contested draft with zero in-depth independent sourcing. Nothing but routine sports coverage. Fails WP:GNG.  Onel 5969  TT me 14:11, 20 May 2023 (UTC)


 * Comment: it is sad and unfortunate that WP's existing guidelines are unable to accommodate articles like this. Jack4576 (talk) 14:49, 20 May 2023 (UTC)

 * Weak delete I think NSPORT still (if it is the N guideline I am thinking of?) permits articles for international teams more or less just for existing, but since this team doesn't seem to have played any competitive international games, that would be a real stretch.

 * Redirect to Federation of Uganda Football Associations, per WP:ATD. There seems to be nothing with which to build an encyclopedic article here, and we don't need stats dumps and squad sheets, which is all this is ever likely to become. wjematherplease leave a message... 16:32, 20 May 2023 (UTC)
 * Comment. It's not that the team has never played any competitive international games, it's that they haven't managed to qualify for their continental championship (and that championship is, for some reason, the only event listed in this article). They have entered and played in the qualification rounds for the U-23 Africa Cup of Nations but not made it into the main tournament. See 2011 African U-23 Championship qualification, for example. --Metropolitan90 (talk) 17:11, 20 May 2023 (UTC)
 * Redirect to Uganda national football team. Under-23 teams can be notable, but the lack of coverage kills this for now. GiantSnowman 12:35, 21 May 2023 (UTC)
