  • Comment: The two Sydän-Satakunta articles are the only ones that meet the WP:GNG standard (and even of them, the first one is borderline at best), and they are not enough to establish notability, especially as they are both from the same publication. I'm not saying this club couldn't be notable, but these sources don't yet demonstrate it. DoubleGrazing (talk) 11:57, 20 April 2024 (UTC)
