James Coppinger
non notable footballer. By article's own admission, he made little to no impact. &rArr;   SWAT Jester    Denny Crane.  08:19, 9 May 2007 (UTC)
 * Why is he non-notable?!! I watched him paly while at Newcastle and was very impressed. I'm sure Doncaster Rovers fans would also agree that he is definately NOT non-notable xxx —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Ciaranph (talk • contribs).
 * Keep until somebody sets me straight. Football League One is a professional league, as far as I have been reading, in the 3rd Tier of the English football league. If this is true, then Mr. Coppinger has satisfied the criteria for an athlete by playing for a professional organization. This guideline is what makes the player notable, regardless of the article's assertion. the_undertow talk  09:36, 9 May 2007 (UTC)
 * Keep. Subject has played in a professional league and therefore passes WP:BIO. Whether he made or makes an impact or not is completely irrelevant: if he meets the criteria in WP:BIO he's considered notable. -- Charlene 09:50, 9 May 2007 (UTC)
