See WP:NRIVALRY; this article fails criteria because it is just a list of results; the two clubs are both located in Algiers but there is no indication of a real rivalry, certainly not a notable one. Spiderone 14:57, 23 October 2016 (UTC)

- Delete - no evidence of notability. GiantSnowman 15:10, 23 October 2016 (UTC)
- Keep - notable. Hichem algerino 21:49, 23 October 2016 (UTC)
- @Hichem algerino: - I strongly disagree. For this to be a true rivalry, there needs to be more than just a collection of results and match reports. This rivalry may well exist, although I'm not even sure of that, the big question is whether WP:GNG is met. Wikipedia policy states that rivalries are not inherently notable and only can be passed if there is significant coverage from independent sources. Spiderone 09:44, 24 October 2016 (UTC)
- Delete - fails WP:NRIVALRY, no evidence of sufficient coverage of the notion of a "rivalry" not just match reporting of individual games, to indicate GNG. Fenix down (talk) 13:44, 24 October 2016 (UTC)
- Delete - no evidence this is a notable article topic. Eldumpo (talk) 16:21, 26 October 2016 (UTC)
