Comment: As WP:RUBBISH states, the quality of an article does not have a bearing on whether it should be deleted or not. Doubts about notability, however, are valid if the club fails to meet WP:FOOTYN criteria. I couldn't see any evidence for their participation in the Danish Cup in recent seasons on the statistics website rsssf.com, but according to the cup article regional teams compete for 48 first round positions so they might have done so as some rsssf seasons only document the second round fully. If there isn't any evidence for their participation in the cup elsewhere (I am unsure about other sources), then perhaps it should be deleted. On the other hand, there may be a weak general notability case; according to rsssf they are the only Jewish football club in Denmark [1]. Deserter1 20:40, 9 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Delete - no evidence of notability; being the only Jewish club in Denmark is not enough. Mention at History of the Jews in Denmark and/or Football in Denmark instead. Giant Snowman 22:01, 9 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Delete. Couldn't find anything reliable to establish notability. Certainly fails WP:GNG. Argyle 4 Life^talk 22:20, 9 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]
