Contested PROD. This player is non-notable because he has never appeared in a fully-professional league (therefore failing WP:NFOOTBALL), and has not received "significant coverage", therefore failing WP:GNG.

 * Delete - Clear failure of WP:ATH and WP:GNG Spiderone  07:21, 10 January 2011 (UTC)
 * Weak Keep - while I don't think we should give all people who participate in his league notability, he was named the league MVP for the 2005 season. This indicates greater notability than an ordinary player in his league and I think supersedes the fully professional status definition. matt91486 (talk) 05:34, 15 January 2011 (UTC)
 * All that means is that he the MVP of a non-professional league; should the MVP of the San Marino/Turks & Caicos etc. leagues also have articles? GiantSnowman 13:41, 15 January 2011 (UTC)


 * Keep - References included in the article demonstrate that he passes WP:GNG. Kugao (talk) 20:03, 15 January 2011 (UTC)
 * I don't believe they count as the "significant coverage" that GNG requests - nothing but passing mentions...GiantSnowman 20:06, 15 January 2011 (UTC)
 * Further info - there are currently 10 references on the article. 1, 3, 5 + 9 are dead links; 2 + 7 are match reports; 4 is a player profile; 6 is a forum; 8 mentions his name and nothing more - basically what coverage there is out there fails WP:NTEMP. Only 10 would count is more than a passing mention. GiantSnowman 20:14, 15 January 2011 (UTC)


 * Delete - per nom. There is insufficient coverage for him to meet WP:GNG, and he has not played in a fully pro league, thus failing WP:NSPORT. Sir Sputnik (talk) 21:37, 15 January 2011 (UTC)
