Oberliga Nord area

I think we will have to be careful with the Oberliga Nord area. Isn't there an issue with notability with a tier V league at some point? Granted, clubs that have previously competed at a higher level (such as VfB Oldenburg) are notable, but what about the rest? I somehow doubt they all warrant an article, so maybe we should just leave the template without wikilinks for those latter clubs? Madcynic (talk) 09:25, 15 July 2008 (UTC)

I think, we won't be able to create that many articles anyway, thats why I didn't list them under requested. I think, the question of notability is therefore only secondary. While I don't like red wikilinks, I think we should leave them there just to tell anybody reading the league article that there isn't actually a club article available.

Football club (GDR)

I've created the above page, so as to better explain what is particular about the designation football club as used in the GDR. Maybe omeone could have a look at this and say a few words re: content and if it's understandable. -- Madcynic (talk) 10:46, 12 August 2008 (UTC)

I think it would be a good idea to link the club articles to this page. Also, some extra explantion may be required regarding the ties between the two Dynamo's and the Innenministerium. I think, some other clubs also got additional support, similar to the BSG's: Jena was tied to Carl-Zeiss, if I remember right. I don't know whether there was a conection between Lok and the railways and Chemie and the chemical industry. Either way, I think the article should mention it. And last, I think a sepparate article about Betriebssportgemeindschaften would be quite good, too. Other then this, its all good. EA210269 (talk) 11:31, 12 August 2008 (UTC)

Whoops, this shouldn't even be here...i'll copy this discussion to Wikipedia talk:WikiProject German football. Madcynic (talk) 12:39, 12 August 2008 (UTC)
