PROD contested as the author believed that the page passed WP:GNG due to mention in the telegraph (India) and firstpost (sportswiki does not count). I disagree and I believe that user needs to check up on WP:GNG to grasp what it means. This page is still not notable. ArsenalFan700 (talk) 23:07, 4 December 2015 (UTC)

 * Comment Telegraph (India)and Firstpost...Both sources are considered very authentic. I don't get any reason to contest it for deletion. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Suman420 (talk • contribs) 06:49, 5 December 2015 (UTC)
 * Keep I completely agree with Suman420. I too don't get any valid or relevant reason for its deletion. To me, nominating this article for deletion is nothing more than wastage of precious time. &mdash; Swastik Chakraborty (User talk)  08:36, 5 December 2015 (UTC)
 * Comment: Read the rules on GNG. Mentions in those papers mean nothing, otherwise the I-League 2nd Division and other state leagues would be considered good enough to have player pages made for those who play in those leagues. --ArsenalFan700 (talk) 09:29, 5 December 2015 (UTC)
 * Comment Your reason is invalid here. Player page is also considered as the biographical article about living person. That's why Wiki allows player's profile who plays in the top league (of their respective country).Suman420 (talk) 09:36, 5 December 2015 (UTC)
 * I don't see how it is. GNG trumps everything. Please actually look at it. --ArsenalFan700 (talk) 09:53, 5 December 2015 (UTC)
 * This is what GNG tells: "If a topic has received significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject, it is presumed to be suitable for a stand-alone article or list." As far as significant coverage in reliable sources are concerned, this article passes GNG. Suman420 (talk) 10:04, 5 December 2015 (UTC)
 * Do you know what significant coverage means... this needs a lot more coverage in independent pages than just the 2-3 articles it is in. Google search this and the majority of it is from facebook and twitter! It is just not notable. --ArsenalFan700 (talk) 10:26, 5 December 2015 (UTC)
 * Two authentic sources are enough to be significant. Suman420 (talk) 10:50, 5 December 2015 (UTC)
 * No, it really isn't. Not even close. --ArsenalFan700 (talk) 15:09, 5 December 2015 (UTC)


 * Delete - fails WP:GNG. It deserves a mention in the main article perhaps but there is no need for a separate article on this fan club. Spiderone  11:00, 5 December 2015 (UTC)
 * Delete - IMO 1 or 2 random articles are not enough to keep this. There definitely has been no significant coverage (I suspect the subjective "significant here points to a big event such as an Earthquake for example) and as a result fails WP:GNG.The real AG (talk) 05:01, 6 December 2015 (UTC)
 * Delete - I'm simply not seeing how this fan club is solidly independently notable. SwisterTwister   talk  07:01, 6 December 2015 (UTC)
 * Delete - no evidence of notability. GiantSnowman 08:52, 6 December 2015 (UTC)
