Fabio Possagno

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Subject fails both general and football (soccer)-specific notability guidelines. A PROD was removed by the creator in the belief that the subject had played for Portogruaro in the third tier of Italian football, which is listed as a fully professional league as per WP:NFOOTBALL. However, there are no sources to verify his actually playing in that league, as opposed to signing for a team in it, other than the user-edited and thus unreliable Transfermarkt website. That site's claims of Mr Possagno's appearances in matches for the Portogruaro club are contradicted by other stats databases and by match reports in the media and on the websites of their opponents. Please see examples at WT:FOOTY. Struway2 (talk) 14:18, 23 May 2014 (UTC)

 * Delete per nom. There don't appear to be any reliable sources to verify the subject's appearance in a fully pro league, and thus we can't say the article passes WP:NFOOTBALL.  There is also no indication the topic has received significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject, thus failing WP:GNG. Mattythewhite (talk) 14:47, 23 May 2014 (UTC)

 * Delete - as unverified. He is not confirmed to have played in a fully pro league and has not received significant coverage meaning the article fails WP:GNG and WP:NSPORT. Sir Sputnik (talk) 01:20, 28 May 2014 (UTC)
