Ibrahim Madaki

 * – ( View AfD View log )

Maybe this is just because I'm fatigued but I've read the article twice and can't see what the actual claim to notability is. None of the teams that he has allegedly managed or played for have ever played in a professional league, so clearly WP:NFOOTBALL is failed. This article relies too much on this self-published and unreliable source. My WP:BEFORE search only came back with this passing mention in Sinar Harian, which is nowhere near enough to pass WP:GNG.

The entire article seems to be a vanity piece and the article creator never made any edits that weren't directly related to Madaki. The Sinar Harian source proves that he exists but we need more for notability. Spiderone (Talk to Spider) 18:07, 2 April 2021 (UTC)

 * Comment: go to WP:FPL and the Niger Premier League is mentioned under mens leagues. He has played at first class level in Niger. Ibrahim managed to recover from his injury and two years later, he won a 1-year contract offer from Niger Premier League side, Espoir FC.  --Whiteguru (talk) 10:58, 6 April 2021 (UTC)
 * - Niger Premier League is listed as Top level leagues which are not fully professional on WP:FPL, along with the other leagues that don't meet the criteria. Not to be confused with Nigeria Professional Football League, which is listed as fully professional. Spiderone (Talk to Spider) 13:45, 6 April 2021 (UTC)
 * OK, thanks for that. I must have (oversighted) the not fully professional --Whiteguru (talk) 21:37, 6 April 2021 (UTC)
