No references, and so cannot verify whether the team satisfies the team notability guideline in cycling notability guidelines. Moved to draft space once as undersourced, and moved back to article space without a reference. PROD then removed without providing a reference. The team does not inherit notability from one member. Its notability must be verified with a reliable source. Robert McClenon ( talk) 03:50, 25 November 2020 (UTC)

- Delete or move back to draft at best. It exists, but there is no evidence of notability. Best Alexandermcnabb ( talk) 04:03, 25 November 2020 (UTC)
- @ Alexandermcnabb: We have expanded and added a good amount of reliable sources, Seacactus 13 ( talk) 04:03, 27 November 2020 (UTC).
- Speedy keep Please familiarize yourself with
WP:CYCLING.
UCI Continental teams pass notability, which is what this is. Just because it is currently a stub and unreferenced does not mean it is non notable.--

- Comment to User:Seacactus 13 - Familiarize yourself with the verifiability policy. This situation is no different than an article stating, without a reference, that the subject of a biography is a lieutenant general or a senator. This is known as verifiability, not truth. How do we know that the team is a UCI Continental team? Where is the reliable source? Robert McClenon ( talk) 03:35, 26 November 2020 (UTC)
- Look at the recent changes, several reliable and verifying sources have been added. Seacactus 13 ( talk) 04:53, 26 November 2020 (UTC)
- Keep New team, but there seems to be a ton of articles via Google, albeit in Spanish, such as
this,
this,
this,
this and
this to name a few.

- Comment to User:Lugnuts - If you can supply the reference, then the article can be kept. Robert McClenon ( talk) 03:35, 26 November 2020 (UTC)
- @ Robert McClenon: - I have, they're listed in my reply, above. Lugnuts Fire Walk with Me 07:31, 26 November 2020 (UTC)
- Comment - See Heymann test. It is unfortunate that the author and one other editor apparently thought that a special notability test overrides or is an exemption from verifiability. They should familiarize themselves with the verifiability policy rather than incorrectly lecturing a reviewer about a special notability guideline. But the Heymann test is passed.

- Agree Keep in current state, but with a nod to Robert McClenon, whose call on the original article and available English sources I would still support. Best Alexandermcnabb ( talk) 16:50, 27 November 2020 (UTC)
