Leslie Fernandez (hockey player)

 * – ( View AfD View log )

Claim that he played in 1975 Hockey World Cup is not verified by reliable sources. Not notable. Larkspurs (talk) 19:05, 17 October 2011 (UTC)


 * Comment There are enough reliable sources to prove that he was a member of India's national hockey squad. And that is notable enough.- Ravi My Tea Kadai 19:17, 17 October 2011 (UTC)


 * Keep Sources confirm he played on India's 1975 team at the Hockey World Cup which, along with the Olympics, is the highest level of competition in field hockey. Ravendrop 21:02, 17 October 2011 (UTC)

 * Keep sources confirm statements. Playing on national team in Olympics is definitely notable.  jsfouche &#9789;&#9790; Talk 00:10, 18 October 2011 (UTC)
 * Keep. It's verified that he played on India's 1975 World Cup team (in fact, he's still getting coverage in The Hindu about it ). But even playing a single international hockey match for India would prove notability. Jenks24 (talk) 05:34, 18 October 2011 (UTC)
 * Keep He played on the world cup team that far and away meets nsports. -DJSasso (talk) 15:01, 19 October 2011 (UTC)
