This article does not attribute any article-specific information to reliable sources. The only attributed information here is to the Elo system, not to the self-styled "World Football Elo Rankings".
This article is filled with nothing apart from a brief description of Elo and original research. The entire article is based off of a website that somebody just created and an advertisement of that website. It is the epitome of self-created material.
The article does not meet the Wikipedia standards for notability. Anyone can create a ranking page for International Football teams, that doesn't make it notable. The Elo system needs variables like the k-factor put into it, variables that have been put in by this person that created the page. Many people would for example question his counting of international friendlies. It is completely arbitrary and completely original research.
Even if you like the site, it is not notable and should not be on Wikipedia. If you can find a reliable source or show why the site is notable, go ahead and do so. Otherwise the article should be deleted.
Again, it doesn't matter whether you like the site or not. I could create a site tomorrow (or give me a few days) with a similar Elo system but that is different in several ways. Would that site be just as notable as this one and get a page also? It's absurd. Anonywiki ( talk) 23:34, 13 October 2011 (UTC) reply
