Akishige Kaneda

 * ( [ delete] ) – (View AfD) (View log)

Article fails WP:N and WP:ATHLETE because the athlete has never played in a fully-pro league Jogurney (talk) 18:28, 28 April 2009 (UTC)

 * Keep. Nom is flawed.  His team is in the J League, which is fully professional (see [] for further details on japanese football system).  --C S (talk) 20:51, 28 April 2009 (UTC)
 * Kaneda has never appeared in a league match (he has made the substitute's bench as the back-up goalkeeper but has zero minutes of playing time). The article could be re-created at some point in the future if he gets playing time in a fully-pro league or if sources are found which satisfy WP:N. As of today, that is not the case and there is no flaw in the nomination. Jogurney (talk) 22:11, 28 April 2009 (UTC)


 * Keep - as above Delete - as below -- Blue Square Thing (talk) 07:24, 1 May 2009 (UTC)
 * Delete - nom is not flawed. Nom states "the athlete has never played in a fully-pro league" and that is true, he may be on the books of a J League team  but he has never played a competitive match for them (see the stats in his infobox) and therefore fails WP:ATHLETE until such time as he does -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 21:05, 28 April 2009 (UTC)
 * I apologize if that's what the nominator meant. But it is still wrong.  He has been subbed in on various occasions.  See the official J League appearance record for 2009, which is linked from the article.  The infobox is out of date.  Incidentally, nominating for deletion the article on a new, young player (19 years old), because he simply hasn't appeared in a pro game yet, even though most likely he will in just a few months (which is what happened), seems overly deletionist.  --C S (talk) 21:19, 28 April 2009 (UTC)
 * He was never subbed into a match. Please check the link and you will see he has zero minutes playing time. Jogurney (talk) 22:13, 28 April 2009 (UTC)


 * Ok. Sorry I missed the play time column the first time.  It does look like he has 0 minutes.  Comment above struck.  --C S (talk) 00:41, 29 April 2009 (UTC)


 * I can't open that link, but I'll take your word for it that he has in fact played and change my !vote to keep -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 21:23, 28 April 2009 (UTC)
 * Change back to delete in view of revised info -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 06:56, 29 April 2009 (UTC)

 * Delete. The J-League site confirms that he has only been an unused substitute so far, and until he makes his first professional appearance he fails WP:ATHLETE. He would never be notable then. This article can easily be recreated if and when he makes his debut. Bettia   (bring on the trumpets!)  08:31, 29 April 2009 (UTC)
 * Delete per nom; fails WP:ATHLETE. GiantSnowman 11:19, 29 April 2009 (UTC)
