Contested PROD. Concern was Article about a footballer who fails WP:GNG and who has not played in a fully pro league. PROD was contested without providing a reason. Sir Sputnik (talk) 21:27, 16 February 2014 (UTC)
 * Note: user:HitroMilanese did contest the PROD with a reason: that the Lao Premier League was indeed fully professional. L.tak (talk) 21:35, 16 February 2014 (UTC)

 * Comment-I contested PROD. I gave reason in my Edit Summary. Hitro   talk  21:35, 16 February 2014 (UTC)
 * Delete - fails WP:FOOTBALL. The Lao Premier League is not fully pro.  Even if it was, he still would've failed because he hasn't made a league appearance.  More importantly, he fails WP:GNG because he has not received any significant coverage. – Michael (talk) 23:10, 16 February 2014 (UTC)
 * Then our article on the league is also incorrect (but then: it is not cited at all). User:Mikemor92, Do you have a ref for the this assertion so i) the Lao Premier League article can be corrected and ii) I have some information whether I should suggest "keep" or "delete"? L.tak (talk) 04:52, 17 February 2014 (UTC)
 * If you can find third party sources to suggest that the Leo PL is fully pro, then start a discussion on the talk page of WP:FPL which has the list of fully pro leagues (supported by references) and there's also a list of leagues that aren't fully pro. – Michael (talk) 05:12, 17 February 2014 (UTC)
 * Thanks for the info; I'll update the article accordingly. As you can see from my previous comment, my question was a question, not an assertion; I have no particular interest in the outcome of this AfD, just want to get the data on the table..… L.tak (talk) 18:19, 17 February 2014 (UTC)


 * Delete - no evidence the Lao Premier League is a WP:FPL, meaning it currently fails WP:NFOOTBALL. Also fails WP:GNG as there is no significant coverage. GiantSnowman 12:57, 17 February 2014 (UTC)
 * Delete - Fails WP:GNG and WP:NFOOTBALL. Has not played senior international football, nor in an FPL. No indication of any wider achievements garnering significant coverage. The interview to a Russian media outlet is insufficient for GNG. Fenix down (talk) 16:04, 17 February 2014 (UTC)
 * Delete: Player fails WP:NFOOTY and WP:GNG. --ArsenalFan700 (talk) 16:13, 17 February 2014 (UTC)
 * Delete. Per GiantSnowman's arguements. Finnegas (talk) 10:38, 18 February 2014 (UTC)
