The fifth / lowest division of Cypriot football? Lacks the required notability for season articles. We don't even have an article for the division as a whole! Fram ( talk) 08:54, 13 June 2016 (UTC)
It is a championship that organizes from
Cyprus Football Association. It is not the fifth level or the lower level. It is the championship that the first teams of the fifth level take part to promoted to the fourth level. See
Cypriot football league system. Below this there are many other regional leagues (more than 15. See
el:Σύστημα ποδοσφαιρικών πρωταθλημάτων Κύπρου#Σύστημα (the Greek version of
Cypriot football league system).
I can create an article for the division. See the Greek version el:Πρωτάθλημα Ένταξης ΣΤΟΚ.
Ok. Its Cyprus, a small country. But its a championship that all sports pages and newspapers coverage. I can add some sources. And is not regional. Teams from all over the country take part. Just think that we have articles about regional leagues of 10th level of England 2015–16 West Midlands (Regional) League Premier Division!

WP:OTHERSTUFFEXISTS. As far I am concerned, articles like that of the West Midlands (average attendance per game: 50!) should be deleted as well.

- No. Just like I haven't nominated yet the articles I recently discussed at
Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Football/Archive 103#Notability of individual matches, which was about articles on games in the lower English competition levels. So? There are thousands of articles on Wikipedia I could nominate, I just happen to come across this one now a,d have no interest in starting a discussion on another article right now just because whatever.

- I have. It was a poor idea, from whoever nominated it, to mix 9th and 10th level leagues in that nomination. And it was a bizarre discussion as most if not all "keep"s just gave general comments, not discussing the actual leagues but opposing the very idea that some 10th level league season would be deleted. That one should probably be properly readdressed sometime, but is not really the focus of this discussion. Wikipedia doesn't work by precedent, one discussion which is somewhat comparable does not policy make for all other discussions. Fram ( talk) 16:27, 13 June 2016 (UTC)

- Keep - This is not the fifth level of the Cypriot football, as all the fifth level competitions (amateur leagues) are organized individually by each city's local federation. Instead, this competition is organized by Cyprus Football Association and the participating teams are coming out from all the cities (local federations) of Cyprus. In general, this competition it's a play-off promotion system for entering the fourth level and is more close to the fourth level rather than the fifth level, as no one team of the fifth level is promoted to the fourth level directly through their local leagues. After they win their local league, they have to participate in this "extra" competition in order to win their promotion to the fourth level.
I think the most important problem in this case is the lack of a main (general) article for this competition. If he create the competition's main article and also add more references in this one, then it will be OK to keep this article. Marios26 ( talk) 03:52, 15 June 2016 (UTC)

- Delete - no evidence of notability. Giant Snowman 17:34, 15 June 2016 (UTC)
- Delete - Season article for a regional competition. No indication that this season has received significant reliable coverage outside of routine match reports. Fenix down ( talk) 07:38, 17 June 2016 (UTC)
- Delete as although there's information, there's still questionability for actual independent notability as its own article. SwisterTwister talk 06:51, 25 June 2016 (UTC)
