 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Article about footballer who hasn't played in a fully-pro league. All of the online coverage appears to be routine (database entries, match reports or transfer announcements) except for a couple of brief mentions in the Newcastle Herald (i.e., local coverage) noting that he was an unused substitute for the local club twice in the A-League. PROD was removed without explanation. Jogurney (talk) 20:23, 12 August 2019 (UTC)

 * Keep - the Philippines Football League is in the list of fully pro leagues. even though the article states he made zero appearances there, he actually made at least one (see 1 and 2). Thanks, Das osmnezz (talk) 16:57, 13 August 2019 (UTC)
 * Thank you. I stand corrected that Pawiak made 1 appearance in the fully-pro Philippines top division. That said, the only coverage I was able to find was that he "rattled the crossbar" with a shot during his club's scoreless draw with Davao. The article doesn't satisfy the GNG in my view, so it fails the spirit NFOOTBALL (see e.g., Articles for deletion/Phakamani Mngadi). Jogurney (talk) 18:34, 13 August 2019 (UTC)
 * , If all articles that met WP:NFOOTBALL had to meet WP:GNG, a lot would have to be deleted since they have few sources; for example, the Russian Professional Football League players who all have a page (e.g. Aleksandr Maslov). Thanks, Das osmnezz (talk) 04:42, 15 August 2019 (UTC)
 * All articles on footballers should be able to satisfy the GNG as NFOOTBALL is merely a presumption of notability. We generally expect sources to exist unless someone rebuts the presumption. Pawiak is a footballer working in places like Australia and the Philippines during the internet era so it ought to be pretty easily to find significant coverage, yet we really can't.

 * Delete per nom. No wide coverage. Sorely fails WP:NFOOTBALL and WP:GNG. -AuthorAuthor (talk) 18:18, 13 August 2019 (UTC)
 * Keep passes WP:NFOOTY and player is only 23 years and currently playing  and there is some local coverage about him    .Pharaoh of the Wizards (talk) 19:09, 13 August 2019 (UTC)
 * Delete – 1 FPL appearance isn't a reason to keep. The links above all come from the same source (Newcastle Herald), so they're not independent of each other; they count as one GNG source for me and we need multiple. If the player were playing in an FPL, I would normally !vote draftify, but in this case, after the one FPL appearance two years ago, the player has been playing semi-professional ball, so there is no reason to think they will become notable in the next six months. Without two GNG sources or reason to think a second one will be written in the next six months, my !vote is delete. – Levivich  19:50, 13 August 2019 (UTC)
 * Delete Fails WP:GNG, and I'm not convinced Philippines have a fully professional league either - it's kind of in turmoil, is it not? SportingFlyer  T · C  01:20, 14 August 2019 (UTC)
