What does it take to meet notability?

I live in Portland, OR, USA, and have started attending some semi-pro football games. I came here to see if I could find more information about the teams, league, etc. and found... nothing. http://www.semiprofootball.org/ has records for the Pacific Football League dating back to 1998. What's the cutoff for notability? I found the team (Portland Pit Bulls, nee Monarchs) through word of mouth. Farfromunique (talk) 05:04, 5 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Orphaned references in American football in the United States

I check pages listed in Category:Pages with incorrect ref formatting to try to fix reference errors. One of the things I do is look for content for orphaned references in wikilinked articles. I have found content for some of American football in the United States's orphans, the problem is that I found more than one version. I can't determine which (if any) is correct for this article, so I am asking for a sentient editor to look it over and copy the correct ref content into this article.

Reference named "si":

From United States: "Sports Illustrated: NCAA Reports $1.1 Billion in Revenues". March 7, 2018.
From Rivals Professional Football League: Earlywine, Aaron (February 9, 2017). "A closer look at football developmental leagues". Sports Illustrated. Time, Inc. Retrieved December 12, 2018.
From National Collegiate Athletic Association: Sports Illustrated: NCAA Reports $1.1 Billion in Revenues
From Minor league football (gridiron): Earlywine, Aaron (February 9, 2017). "A closer look at football developmental leagues". SI.com. Retrieved December 12, 2018.
From List of American and Canadian football leagues: Earlywine, Aaron (February 9, 2017). "A closer look at football developmental leagues". Sports Illustrated. Retrieved December 12, 2018.
From Pacific Pro Football: Earlywine, Aaron (February 9, 2017). "A closer look at football developmental leagues". SI.com. Time, Inc. Retrieved December 12, 2018.

I apologize if any of the above are effectively identical; I am just a simple computer program, so I can't determine whether minor differences are significant or not. Feel free to remove this comment after fixing the refs. AnomieBOT ⚡ 21:57, 18 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
