A season article about a fourth-tier Italian club (non fully-pro). Barely sourced, doesn't really merit an article of its own. Nehme ₁₄₉₉ 15:59, 20 July 2021 (UTC) reply

• Delete - seems totally unnecessary when the parent article is barely more than a stub. Below the level that typically gets enough significant coverage to build a meaningful season article. Spiderone ^{(Talk to Spider)} 16:33, 20 July 2021 (UTC) reply
• Keep It has taken me all day yesterday to create and I am trying very hard! Not exactly sure as to why it's not notable ... the club are playing in Serie D = League Two in England (so they're playing "League football", not "non-League"). Also, you have to understand it is difficult to provide reliable sources for a club that has only been in existence since 2020, especially when I have to source information from websites such as Transfermarkt (which User:Sir Sputnik doesn't want anyone to use as a source for verification because they consider it "unreliable"). Another two sources I have used are TuttoCalciatori and TuttoCampo. I would try and source more information from the club's official website, however it is still "a work in progress", meaning not everything is available on there. Matese lost in the play-offs and had they played in the final and won, they would have been playing Serie C football for the 2021/22 season. Look, the reason I have placed templates like Empty section / Expand section is because even though I have seen photographs of the kit online ... I don't know what to class their coulours as (for example, the shirt and shorts are green but appear as different shades according to different photographs). Therefore I am not sure what colour coding I should add (hence why I haven't added the home & kit template to the article). The socks are sort of a lighter shade of green, perhaps a kind of yellow (F.C. Matese's nickname) according to TuttoCampo is "Verde Oro", see link at Tuttocampo "Green Gold", see this link for the kit (shirt) at Tuttocampo. - ST MADG*85 talk) 17:52, 20 July 2021 (UTC) reply

• @ ST MADG*85: Please read WP:INDISCRIMINATE. Just because Matese exists, and have almost reached the Serie C, doesn't mean we need to have an article on each of its seasons. Even you admit that it's "difficult to provide reliable sources", and that you have had to resort to unreliable sources such as Transfermarkt. Also, per Wikipedia:WikiProject Football/Fully professional leagues, the Serie D isn't exactly the same as League Two. Serie D is the first semi-pro league in Italy, while League Two is still fully-pro. Nehme ₁₄₉₉ 17:36, 20 July 2021 (UTC) reply

• Okay, fair enough! I created the article because the club were only established in 2020, therefore if at some point they end up playing higher up in the Italian football pyramid, (becoming notable), we'd already have at least their first season recorded. As for the other matter, what do you suggest I do about the colour coding (Kit template) ... I mean, what shade of green would you say their kit is and what is the secondary colour for their home kit (the socks)? Based on this link on the club's official website [1], the socks appear to be a luminous green / yellow, yet in another photo, they are the same colour as the home kit's shirt and shorts. Here's a link to an away match in which they wore their home colours, notice they're wearing the luminous socks [2] Maybe, the luminous colour is an alternate colour they use. They seem to play in a white / green away kit. Again, what colour green would you say they use for their away kit, if it is at all different? Looking at this link on their official YouTube channel YouTube, you can see they're wearing their third kit, even though they are playing in their home stadium.

• @ ST MADG*85: I've answered on your talk page. No need to discuss about kit colours on a deletion nomination. Nehme ₁₄₉₉ 18:13, 20 July 2021 (UTC) reply
