Article about a football who fails WP:GNG and doesn't have any proof that he played in a fully pro league. – Michael (talk) 01:10, 16 January 2013 (UTC)

 * Delete - fails WP:NFOOTBALL (no professional appearances per Soccerway) and also fails WP:GNG. GiantSnowman 09:09, 16 January 2013 (UTC)
 * Delete - there's no evidence that he meets the general notability guidelines, and the assertion on his infobox that he has played 5 games for the senior squad cannot be verified; it's more likely those appearances were for the Railhawks U23 squad, which would not be enough to pass WP:NFOOTBALL (nor are his appearances for Costa Rica's U17 team). It's worth noting that he has been named in their senior squad for the upcoming season so he MAY make his professional début in the near future, but that's not enough to keep the article at this point in time. ★ Bald Zebra ★ talk 09:48, 16 January 2013 (UTC)
 * Delete - article is about a footballer who hasn't played in a fully pro league (atleast according to soccerway) or represented his country at senior level, which means that the articles fails WP:NFOOTY. Also fails WP:GNG due to lack of significant coverage in reliable sources. No prejudice against recreation when one of the criteria is met. Mentoz86 (talk) 11:11, 16 January 2013 (UTC)
