I hope this article will become the fourth Rosenborg FL. I believe it meets the criteria, but I'm sure you guys will find at least a few issues I've overlooked. Arsenikk (talk) 22:29, 29 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- Comment - my main concern is that the article only includes stats from 1967 onwards - what about the teams/games Rosenborg played before that date? Current FLs like Luton Town F.C. league record by opponent include stats for all league games, in the case of Luton even from the super-obscure United League. If the intention is to only include top-flight stats then a) why is that? and b) surely 1978 should be excluded as well..........? -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 13:31, 2 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- The main reason for starting with 1967 is that no reliable sources have published statistical information for earlier seasons, so it is physically impossible to produce a more extensive list within WP guidelines. I agree that going back to 1918 would be ideal, but back then RBK wasn't even allowed to join the FA (for instance it is not even known which date Rosenborg played its first match). While Luton Town always has been a spectator-based team, it was first in the 1950s did Rosenborg become sufficiently good to draw a significant crowd and even then it was a smaller player in town. All major, reliable sources I have come across (the club itself, major news sites etc) put 1967 as the starting points for stats. Thus starting in 1967 is the only way to not violate WP:OR and WP:V. As for inclusion of 1978, I have a neutral stance. I have included it because the source includes it, but if it would make the article more neutral by excluding that season, then I am open to that too.

- Is it the book by Svardal that puts 1967 as starting point? On the website "Motstandere" published by Rosenborg BK, cited in the article, all league-matches from 1964 are listed. If we mail them, and ask if they could add the matches from the 1963 season, would it be OR to add those 4 seasons at the second tier to the list? I think starting from 1963 would be reasonable, as the Norwegian league-system was reorganised in 1963. Mentoz86 (talk) 16:59, 4 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- There are several possible starting points and 1963 would also work, as would the "marathon" 1961–62 season. As for the website you mention, it has been updated further since I created this list and adding that information would be fine, although I am not sure if it is complete or not. I'll have to look a bit closer at the stats. Arsenikk (talk) 18:03, 4 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- Statistics is complete back to 1964, all three additional season when RBK played in the Second Divison. I can add these years, alternatively remove 1978 or leave it as it is. Either way is fine for me, but I would prefer any discussion to take place before I do the bulk of the work. Arsenikk (talk) 18:49, 5 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- I believe it would be strange to start in 1964 and not 1963, so if the stats from 1963 is unavailable in RS's, we have two options left: remove 1978 or leave it as it is. I have no opinion on which of those two options should be chosen, but I understand that it looks strange to only have one season at the second tier included. On the other hand, when RS's included 1978, why shouldn't Wikipedia? Mentoz86 (talk) 13:26, 10 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

*Comments Just suggestions, but I am inclined to support the list.

- Support--Tomcat (7) 21:20, 3 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- Comment - "on" matches and "on" seasons in Tomcat's suggestions above should be "in" matches and "in" seasons. "On" is not correct English in those sentences -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 21:39, 3 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Comment you say in the lead "Rosenborg joined the top league in 1967" and then at the top of the list "Rosenborg BK has played in the domestic league from the 1967 season and onwards", so a simple question, did Rosenborg have a "league record" before 1967? If not, then this list is either incomplete or incorrectly titled, or inadequately caveated in the lead. The Rambling Man (talk) 20:21, 2 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- The section header title was proposed by a reviewer here, so I guess I have to get more careful of what advice I accept. I have changed the section header title. I have only been able to find a league record for a single season prior to 1967, per the discussion above, which is why the list has the chronological scope it has. Arsenikk (talk) 13:42, 4 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- Oppose The parent article, Rosenborg BK, discusses the club's history prior to 1967, or 1964, or any arbitrary time-frame being discussed. I accept that you can only provide reliable information for that time period, but unfortunately, without the remaining information, I think that the list is incomplete, and fails criteria 3a.
