Fails WP:NFOOTY and WP:GNG. Mas y mas (talk) 19:47, 13 June 2014 (UTC)

I am also nominating the following related pages because they also fail NFOOTY and GNG:




 * Keep all - These players participate in a tournament (2014 AFC U-16 Championship) that serves as a qualifying route to the 2015 FIFA U-17 World Cup. There is no issue on notability. Nevertheless, the article needs expanding (hence the stub status). See Category:Under-17 association football, there seems to be clear consensus from the large number of articles that teams competing at that level in this age group are inherently notable.

 * Delete all - None of these players have played in a fully pro league or for the Nepalese senior national team, meaning all of them fail WP:NFOOTBALL which explicitly excludes youth football as a source of notability. Additionally, none of them have received sufficient coverage to meet WP:GNG. Sir Sputnik (talk) 00:04, 14 June 2014 (UTC)
 * Delete all as non notable players - No evidence of notability. – Davey 2010 •  (talk)  00:16, 14 June 2014 (UTC)
 * WP:NOTPAPER:"Deletionists rule Wikipedia. Ironically, they're constrained by print-era thinking. What harm does it do if an online reference has a long tail of articles that are only interesting to a few people, so long as everyone can still find whatever they're looking for? There is room to do to Wikipedia what Wikipedia did to Britannica" - Paul Graham (computer programmer). Ayoopdog (talk) 13:35, 14 June 2014 (UTC)
 * I was actually going to say "I'm not a fucking deletionist" ... But somehow as of today I've made - Keep votes: 95 (20.1%) / Delete votes: 309 (65.3%) - So really I dont have a leg to stand on with that comment!, As for the notability thing - I vote on guidelines, Not what I like and what I dont. – Davey 2010 •  (talk)  14:19, 14 June 2014 (UTC)
 * It's important to remember that they are just that; guidelines. Just as FIFA isn't the sole controller of all things football, all football related content shouldn't be aggressively pushed to fit Wikiproject Football's guides. They do not control all football content on Wikipedia. They are just a small community that generates guides. Many people forget this. Ayoopdog (talk) 09:00, 16 June 2014 (UTC)


 * Delete all - youth international players are not notable per WP:NFOOTBALL, and all appear to also fail WP:GNG. GiantSnowman 13:08, 15 June 2014 (UTC)


 * Delete all - fails WP:NFOOTY and WP:GNG. SW3 5DL (talk) 21:54, 15 June 2014 (UTC)


 * Delete all They fail WP:NFOOTY and WP:GNG, as per nom., Sir Sputnik and others. --Bejnar (talk) 23:57, 17 June 2014 (UTC)
 * Delete all - a list of players who have not played in a fully professional league nor senior international football so fail WP:NFOOTY. No indication of any other achievements garner significant reliable coverage to pass WP:GNG either for any one of them. Fenix down (talk)


 * Delete all as per above. General problem is some guideline saying that if such and such a player participated in such and such a level contest, or played at such and such a level, they're automatically notable; I have problems with this type of logic, since the real underlying guideline should be the general notability guideline.--Tomwsulcer (talk) 21:01, 20 June 2014 (UTC)
