 * Delete per nom; two of the links on the article are dead, and the remaining one doesn't confirm he has actually played in a game; he looks to fail WP:ATHLETE and WP:N. GiantSnowman 17:56, 25 July 2009 (UTC)
 * Keep. The 1st link indicates he has won titles with Botafogo Eldumpo (talk) 14:38, 26 July 2009 (UTC)
 * Comment the first reference doesn't indicate he actually played in any games for them during those seasons and may have just been a squad member. --Jimbo[online] 15:03, 26 July 2009 (UTC)
 * Well the site says he's won those honours (Rio cup 2007 & 08) so unless there's counter-references it would seem reasonable that he did Eldumpo (talk) 15:44, 26 July 2009 (UTC)


 * Delete no verifiable sources stating he's ever played in a fully-professional league or competition, thus failing WP:V, WP:N and WP:ATH. No third-party sources that satisfy WP:GNG. All the references on the article are trivial stats sites, that don't even produce how many games his played, hardly deemed reliable. --Jimbo[online] 17:11, 26 July 2009 (UTC)
 * Delete. This source seems to confirm he didn't play for Botafogo, and I can find no other sources which say otherwise. According to his portugeuse Wikipedia entry, he currently plays for América Futebol Clube (Minas Gerais) in Serie C, which isn't a fully professional league. Therefore, he fails WP:N, WP:V and WP:ATHLETE. Bettia   (bring on the trumpets!)  18:04, 26 July 2009 (UTC)
