 * Delete: Not meeting notability guidelines Proton Dental (talk) 06:29, 17 July 2022 (UTC)
 * Keep - I have added sources, and there is clear notability, with multiple articles specifically about them as well as routine coverage to establish facts. Given the sourceless state of the original article, I can understand the desire to do something about it, but this has happened repeatedly from your recent nominations, and I think sticking an unreferenced, BLP sources, or refimprove tag on an article would be more appropriate than jumping straight to an AfD nomination. --IdiotSavant (talk) 10:50, 17 July 2022 (UTC)
 * Keep I agree with everything said, especially about the nominators actions. In addition to the sources already in the article, Paso Schwalger is regarded as one of Samoa's best ever players (see this). Article needs improvement, not deletion. Thanks, Das osmnezz (talk) 22:12, 17 July 2022 (UTC)
 * Keep, seems to be sufficient sourcing to pass WP:GNG and WP:ROUTINE, admittedly, the only non-routine coverage comes from non-notable local newspapers, but these newspapers serve the City of Wyndham, which has a population of roughly a quarter of a million, a large enough catchment area for their reliability to be assumed.

 * Keep, the sourcing added seems to be just enough to pass the WP:GNG. Pinging User:GiantSnowman as they asked to be pinged if sources were found and I don't think they have been yet. — Danre98 ( talk ^ contribs ) 01:06, 23 July 2022 (UTC)
 * Can you explain how any of the sources pass GNG? Sportsfan 1234 (talk) 01:18, 23 July 2022 (UTC)
 * Sure. Firstly, I don't see how any of the online sources contributes to meeting the GNG. The two best newspaper pieces as I see them are the ones by Paddy Higgs and Lance Jenkinson. Both seem to be independent, reliable, secondary, and, in my opinion, give weak significant coverage. Others may pick different 'best' ones. I don't see that as a strong argument, though, and I do see deletion as an acceptable outcome. However, I think it should still be kept. — Danre98 ( talk ^ contribs ) 03:16, 23 July 2022 (UTC)
