Melvine Malard

 * – ( View AfD View log )

French D1F is categorised as "not fully professional" by WP:FPL. She has not played a competitive international from the senior national team. She therefore fails WP:NFOOTY. Also fails WP:GNG. -- Usedtobecool ☎️ 06:06, 30 September 2020 (UTC)

 * Keep This woman has played in the champions league final with Olympique Lyonnais, the greatest club ever of the European women's football (this is not an overstatement, but a pretty consensual fact). I don't think a strict aplication of WP:FOOTY is very appropriate in this case. --Coco (talk) 10:01, 30 September 2020 (UTC)
 * Clearly reaches WP:GNG as well, as per the sources in the article, such as this in-depth coverage. --Coco (talk) 02:01, 1 October 2020 (UTC)
 * Delete - fails GNG & NFOOTBALL. GiantSnowman 10:28, 30 September 2020 (UTC)
 * Delete - playing a few seconds of the Champions League Final may allow this to scrape through NFOOTY (potentially) but this still fails GNG comprehensively Spiderone  10:42, 30 September 2020 (UTC)
 * Keep per Jogurney below Spiderone  18:43, 30 September 2020 (UTC)
 * Delete - per User:GiantSnowman.  Heart  (talk) 13:33, 30 September 2020 (UTC)
 * Keep - Article about semi-pro footballer which appears to satisfy WP:GNG. L'Équipe (France's leading sports newspaper) has in-depth coverage (e.g., ), and Imaz Press Réunion (news service based in Réunion) has in-depth coverage (e.g., ). It's also worth noting that she has been called up to the senior France international football team after leading the under-19 side to the European championship in 2019.

 * Delete: Fails WP:NFOOTY and WP:GNG. I have seen articles dedicated to young 12 year old Indian players before for doing well in local Indian leagues. Does it mean they pass WP:GNG? Two articles doesn't make one notable or pass GNG in my opinion. --ArsenalFan700 (talk) 03:54, 1 October 2020 (UTC)
 * Keep she played final in women UCL for Lyon and it is OK, its better to be with maintenance templates than this AFC. ( F5pillar ---/  'Messager🖋📩 ) 10:05, 1 October 2020 (UTC)
 * Keep Malard was more than just called up for France - she played in the matches against North Macedonia and Serbia in the Euro 2021 qualifying thereby passing WP:NFOOTY. The L'Equipe article is just icing on the cake. Dougal18 (talk) 12:58, 1 October 2020 (UTC)
 * Keep passes NFOOTY, and if cleared up could probably pass GNG as well. REDMAN 2019  ( talk ) 16:22, 1 October 2020 (UTC)
 * Keep passes both NFOOTY and GNG though I hope there will be more reliable sources listed as her career progress continues.Tsistunagiska (talk) 19:36, 2 October 2020 (UTC)
