Anthony Robinson (footballer)
AfDs for this article: 
 * ( [ delete] ) – (View AfD) (View log)

Previously deleted as a result of this AfD. Player fails notability at WP:ATHLETE having never played in fully-professional league or competition. Source in article indicates that he's played for Barbados at international level, however, this source does not mention Robinson's name. --Jimbo[online] 13:03, 9 September 2008 (UTC)

 * Delete Can't turn up any sources other than, which shows him as coming off the subs bench for Mansfield Town. To the best of my knowledge that does not make him pass WP:ATHLETE.  And I certainly can't find anything which corroborates the idea he played for Barbados. Porterjoh (talk) 17:47, 9 September 2008 (UTC)
 * Keep . I'm finding plenty of sources over a decade -, including this BBC article that says he is/was a senior Barbados international. Nfitz (talk) 16:38, 10 September 2008 (UTC)
 * Have you actually read those articles? The first link to Google news lists his name in squads for Conference National games, which is not fully-pro, failing WP:ATHLETE. That one BBC link, calls him an international with no proof that he has played. Like the link to the story on Hendon's website, which said he played against N.Ireland - but he didn't (wasn't even on the bench). --Jimbo[online] 17:34, 10 September 2008 (UTC)
 * Something fishy here ... Nfitz (talk) 17:47, 12 September 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete per WP:ATHLETE - unless evidence of the contrary can be found. --Angelo (talk) 07:38, 11 September 2008 (UTC)


 * Keep. Minfo (talk) 02:28, 12 September 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete - Per nom. Hubschrauber729 (talk) 02:34, 12 September 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete - Per nom and Jimbo above. No evidence he passes notability non of google search hits from Nfitz satisfy. Internationals are recorded - show me one team list on a WP:RS that lists him playing for Barbados and I'd be happy to keep, but a vague unsupported low level BBC article doesn't cut it. Lazy journalist I reckon.-- Club Oranje Talk 11:46, 12 September 2008 (UTC)
