A declined speedy, even though nothing has changed from the first AfD - he still fails WP:ATHLETE and WP:GNG. GiantSnowman 16:37, 29 September 2009 (UTC)

-Guys... look i'm not an intelligent guy, i dont know what the protocol here is and I don't know how to type the way you guys have.

But please... Aaron Mooy, regardless of what stipulations and regulations you guys have tried to set in the past, is worthy of having a Wikipedia article about him. He is a member of the Liverpool FC squad, and is an international player for Australia's U20 side.

I don't know how to read this WP:Athlete guideline you have, but surely you can use common sense in this situation and realise he's worthy of having an article? This is not some indulgent thing, he's represented his country, surely that's enough in it's own right? Otherwise if this article gets deleted, I'm sure thousands more must be too... so please be reasonable with regard to this article. Thanks =) —Preceding unsigned comment added by Brisbane Man (talk • contribs) 02:11, 4 October 2009 (UTC)

Edit: Check out this video on youtube, uploaded very recently. First guy you see is Aaron Mooy playing for his country. http://www.youtube.com/watch?gl=AU&hl=en-GB&v=UKErEb1QoWE

 * He's actually signed to Bolton, not Liverpool...GiantSnowman


 * Keep as numerous youth appearances for Australia and in the squad at Premier League. Has lots of internet hits showing wider notability, including Eldumpo (talk) 08:16, 4 October 2009 (UTC)
 * Sigh. Youth caps do not confer notability and simply being signed to a team isn't enough, you have to actually play to be notable. Oh, and if he as "lots of internet hits" that shows he passes GNG then why have you only provided one article...? GiantSnowman 11:41, 4 October 2009 (UTC)


 * Delete. Until he plays pro, he's doesn't satisfy WP:ATHLETE. Lara  17:15, 4 October 2009 (UTC)
 * Delete without prejudice to recreation as and when he plays professionally -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 13:51, 5 October 2009 (UTC)
 * Delete and recreate when and if he makes a league or cup debut. Govvy (talk) 16:57, 6 October 2009 (UTC)
