Contested PROD. Concern was Article about a footballer who fails WP:GNG and who has not played in a fully pro league. PROD was contested by the article's creator on the grounds that he will captain the Iraqi team at the Youth World Cup. Events are never grounds for notability until the actually occur per WP:CRYSTAL, and WP:NSPORT explicitly excludes youth football as a source notability. Sir Sputnik (talk) 18:56, 9 June 2013 (UTC)

 * Delete - Fails WP:NSPORT and WP:GNG.Simione001 (talk) 01:13, 10 June 2013 (UTC)


 * Delete The subject has not achieved sufficient notability, at this time, to warrant an article. Stormbay (talk) 03:03, 10 June 2013 (UTC)
 * Delete - fails WP:GNG and WP:NFOOTBALL. GiantSnowman 09:54, 10 June 2013 (UTC)
 * Comment - is the Iraqi Premier League not a professional league? Has he been fielded? --MicroX (talk) 09:10, 11 June 2013 (UTC)
 * Delete - no, the Iraqi Premier League is not on the list of fully pro league and since he hasn't represented his country at senior level, the subject fails WP:NFOOTY. Also fails WP:GNG due to lack of in-depth coverage in reliable sources. Mentoz86 (talk) 09:47, 11 June 2013 (UTC)
 * Comment - Iraq IS a fully professional League sponsored by Zain just Like Saudi Arabia, But because of security reasons we don't play in the AFC Champions League. STRONGLY KEEP. Mussav (talk) 12:03, 14 June 2013 (UTC)
 * Having a sponsor does not necessarily mean a league is fully pro. Just as an example, the English fifth division is sponsored by Blue Square yet it isn't an FPL. Which means this article does not confer notability. Sir Sputnik (talk) 17:14, 14 June 2013 (UTC)
 * Iraq is a fully Professional league and If you type on Google "Iraq Professional League on Arabic" you'll have one million and one hundred plus articles. Now that I've given you proves that Iraq is Fully professional League, now tell me why Iraq IS NOT a professional football league? Thank you. Mussav (talk) 18:02, 14 June 2013 (UTC)
 * WP:GHITS is not a valid argument. I could perform the same procedure on almost any of the confirmed non-fully-pro leagues and get several million hits. Sir Sputnik (talk) 14:54, 15 June 2013 (UTC)
 * I've given you sources, but yet you didnt answer my question. Btw Iraq League is on the pro list!!. Mussav (talk) 19:37, 16 June 2013 (UTC)
