 * – ( View AfD View log | edits since nomination)

A football player who's claim to notability is winning an olympic medal *despite not actually playing a single minute on the pitch*. I know olympic medal winners are generally considered intrinsically notable. Does this extend to people who never actually played? BrigadierG (talk) 19:38, 31 July 2022 (UTC)

 * Keep - A Google search brings up what appears to be significant Spanish-language coverage. (Interestingly, his team was Spain's first-ever national football team.) AiGenly (talk) 23:03, 31 July 2022 (UTC)
 * Speedy keep: the nominator asks a good question but does not actually advance an argument for deletion. StAnselm (talk) 09:02, 1 August 2022 (UTC)
 * Comment I've found two newspaper articles: one from 2011 from El Diario Vasco, one from 1961 on the occasion of Eizaguirre's death from Mundo Deportivo. I've used the first source to expand the article. Unfortunately, the second, old one is difficult to read and use. What did you find, ? Robby.is.on (talk) 09:22, 1 August 2022 (UTC)
 * Keep no matter played he or not. He is the medalist. --Bigneeerman (talk) 14:59, 1 August 2022 (UTC)
 * Note: This discussion has been included in WikiProject Football's list of association football-related deletions. GiantSnowman 17:55, 1 August 2022 (UTC)
 * Keep - sufficient sourcing already in the article to show notability. GiantSnowman 17:57, 1 August 2022 (UTC)
 * Keep - Notable Olympic footballer; Passes WP:GNG. Jogurney (talk) 18:46, 1 August 2022 (UTC)
 * Keep - Per above. I look at the other sports WikiProjects and they don't nearly have an article deleted per day, let alone 20. By the time I finish writing this, another twenty will probably be deleted. Article may need improvement, but definitely not deletion. Thanks, Das osmnezz (talk) 21:41, 1 August 2022 (UTC)
