Marco Rosa (footballer)

 * – ( View AfD View log )

Has never played in a league listed at WP:FPL so does not meet WP:NFOOTBALL. Sources cited do not demonstrate WP:GNG as they are either stats pages, his club's own website or social media pages. The best source that I can find in searches is Bola VIP (not sure if this is WP:RS) which still contains very little actual information about Rosa. Simply just states that he scored a goal in the UEFA Europa Conference League and was the first player for a Gibraltarian club to do so.

If being the first player for a Gibraltarian club to do x thing is enough for an article then I'm happy to stand down but I've always been under the impression that GNG or an SNG would still need to be met in this sort of case. Spiderone (Talk to Spider) 07:22, 1 October 2021 (UTC)

Comment. Inclined to agree with nom that this should be deleted but I have some reservations. Would have been okay if he had played for Betis' first team but, as it is, notability is questionable. Not sure. No Great Shaker (talk) 08:52, 1 October 2021 (UTC) Comment. I'll be honest I was always of the impression that scoring in a top tier UEFA competition was a qualifying factor, with the Group Stage of the Conference League counting as that. I've seen players from Irish clubs who have not turned pro get pages after scoring in the Europa League group stages, for example. But if that's not the case then fair enough.

 * This was the project guideline WP:FOOTYN which has now been superseded by WP:NFOOTBALL which is, in a lot of cases, superseded itself by WP:GNG Spiderone (Talk to Spider) 20:17, 2 October 2021 (UTC)
