Rachelle Bukuru
AfDs for this article:


 * – ( View AfD View log | edits since nomination)

This article fails WP:GNG, as the subject is completely lacking in WP:SIGCOV from independent WP:RS. The last time this was nominated this was closed as "no consensus" because many editors cited WP:NFOOTY, which no longer exists. My WP:BEFORE is showing only WP:ROUTINE soccer match coverage of Bukuru with sporadic mentions in the international sports press, either in a list of the match lineup or things like "Bukuru scored a goal this game". No hits from Burundi's sole private national newspaper, Iwacu. No hits from the government newspaper Le Renouveau. No hits from Jimbere Magazine, a Burundian magazine which focuses on women's issues. As for the current sources cited thus far:
 * Source 1 - database entry. Doesn't count towards notability per WP:SPORTCRIT.
 * Source 2 - Single mention in list of players, not SIGCOV
 * Source 3 - Post by Burundi team's official Instagram account showing a player lineup, single mention, fails SIGOV and source is not independent
 * Source 4 - Link is dead, but archive shows its just a list of players, fails SIGCOV
 * Source 5 - Single mention in list of players, fails SIGCOV
 * Source 6 - Single mention ins list of players, fails SIGCOV. Article is from Burundi's football federation website, thus also probably lacking independence
 * Source 7 - Database lineup page, single mention, fails SIGCOV
 * Source 8 - Subject not even mentioned.

This player is not notable, and the article should be deleted. -Indy beetle (talk) 01:38, 10 June 2022 (UTC)
