List of clubs in Egypt[edit]

Indiscriminate list of mainly redline social organizations, listed without rhyme or reason. Notability for the function of these clubs in any given country seems to me to be impossible to establish; how would one get reliable information and how would one measure importance? Currently under discussion is a similar list, Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/List of clubs in Bahrain. Drmies (talk) 17:14, 19 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I, the creator of this list, agree that it is quite a useless page. It would be nice to have around, if it was to be modified a bit, but right now it serves no purpose. I have no arguments for keeping this page. A elalaily (talk) 21:52, 19 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so consensus may be reached.

Keep - BUT substantially limit in scope. Many of these clubs are among the top football (soccer) clubs in the Egyptian League (indeed among the top in Africa). Limit and rename to a list of Egyptian football clubs and chop out what doesnt meet that.
