I can't find evidence suggesting that the rivalry between these two national teams is notable. There are a few brief mentions, but I don't think there's enough for a standalone article here. An alternative to deletion could be a selective merge to History of the Germany national football team, though most content here is already covered and cited there. ^Complex/_Rational 17:38, 9 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Keep In more or less every sport the German–Swiss rivalry is the most important rivalry for Switzerland and also very important for Germany. As of new as today there is a new article of this rivalry in the three main team sports in Switzerland. Also article from 2020.🤾‍♂️ Malo95 (talk) 20:09, 9 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Delete – No significant rivalry, there is total disparity between the teams. Switzerland appears to have much more rivalry with Serbia, for example. Svartner (talk) 23:42, 9 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
This is a direct translation from a German article so I cannot change the actual information. KatieMowat (talk) 09:39, 10 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@KatieMowat: As long as you provide attribution for the translated version, which you did on the talk page, there are no restrictions to editing the English article in order to "stay true" to its German counterpart. It's quite normal for different-language articles about the same subject to have significantly different content, and inclusion guidelines also vary across different Wikipedias. ^Complex/_Rational 14:17, 10 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Delete as unproven. If exists or existed, our coverage should have started elsewhere. gidonb (talk) 22:30, 20 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
