This was prodded last year for "Fails WP:NSEASONS. Also per WP:NOTDATABASE.", but deprodded without explanation or improvements. The article is in a sorry state since its creation in 2011, created by a long-blocked sockpuppeteer, sourced to a generic page for the league (so basically unsourced), for a second division team without anything tremarkable in this season. Even if we would want an article for this club season, very little is lost by getting rid of this version. Fram (talk) 09:33, 2 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete - if something notable did happen with Ehime this season, it can easily be covered at Ehime FC and 2008 J.League Division 2, both of which have plenty of room for more content. The stand-alone article for the sake of having one is wholly inappropriate in my view. Spiderone^{(Talk to Spider)} 13:17, 4 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete. Does not meet WP:GNG. Agree with Spiderone that descriptive content about the 2008 Ehime season could easily be added to Ehime FC or the league article, as long as it's well sourced. Would further add that keeping lists with (questionable) personally identifiable information about non-notable individuals (i.e., birthdates (lacking citations) of players without Wikipedia pages) probably violates data privacy guidelines.
