After a good faith search, failed to find any references that were capable of satisfying WP:N or WP:SIGCOV. While I note it was suggested on the PROD there were Portugese news sources, the one I located was a mention only after translation. ManicSpider (talk) 11:15, 17 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]

    • Comment On the reference that has now been added, I would like to point out that it does not meet WP:RS or WP:SIGCOV. -ManicSpider (talk) 05:23, 19 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete. I PRODed the article and I have not been able to establish its notability. Andrew327 11:17, 17 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep - used in a WP:FPL-compliant league for several seasons, that's enough for notability as per general practise. Lukeno94 (tell Luke off here) 12:23, 17 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment - a redirect to F.C. Famalicão (the main team that plays there) would be more sensible than deletion. I can't find much coverage beyond basic capacity/year of building info. --Colapeninsula (talk) 12:50, 17 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep - it may not be policy, but it is certainly backed up by past AFDs and simple COMMONSENSE - a top-level stadium is notable. Article needs improving, not deleting. GiantSnowman 18:49, 18 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]
  • Merge/redirect to F.C. Famalicão, without prejudice against re-creation when sources become available. A football stadium used for a decent length of time in a top-level league will probably have had enough coverage for someone with access to Portuguese historical newspapers or relevant books to build a useful article. But without any evidence of that coverage, we can't make a useful article on the topic. And as there's a clearly sensible place to keep the existing information until someone with such access to sources does feel like making a useful article, the one-and-a-half lines we do have would be better kept with the football club.

    Incidentally, re ManicSpider's comment, the reference added to the article obviously isn't SIGCOV, but it is RS. cheers, Struway2 (talk) 14:39, 23 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep - I don't know how the stadium of a team that has played meany seasons in the top level of Portugese football isn't notable. Nfitz (talk) 04:27, 12 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]
