Unable to find sufficient in-depth coverage from third-party sources, failing WP:GNG. The most I saw was routine coverage on transfers/contract extensions. JTtheOG (talk) 11:02, 17 July 2023 (UTC)
 * Note: This discussion has been included in the deletion sorting lists for the following topics: Sportspeople, Football,  and Germany. JTtheOG (talk) 11:02, 17 July 2023 (UTC)
 * Keep Bundesliga player with plenty of coverage from a variety of sources to support an article.     (Not all of those pass GNG - the English language one may not be a RS - but enough do.) SportingFlyer  T · C  12:07, 17 July 2023 (UTC)
 * Delete Fails GNG with a lack of significant coverage. The Badische Zeitung articles are paywalled and the others are just WP:ROUTINE contract signing stories. Dougal18 (talk) 14:48, 17 July 2023 (UTC)
 * Being paywalled means nothing when it comes to determining notability. BeanieFan11 (talk) 15:32, 17 July 2023 (UTC)
 * Unsure. The Badische Zeitung pieces by SportingFlyer, although paywalled, do look to be SIGCOV based on the titles (e.g. "Stürmerin Samantha Steuerwald verstärkt die Frauen des SC Freiburg" [Striker Samantha Steuerwald strengthens the women of SC Freiburg]) but the other pieces look to brief to count towards GNG. BeanieFan11 (talk) 15:32, 17 July 2023 (UTC)
 * I also thought that article looked promising, although it might be another transfer piece from the looks of it. JTtheOG (talk) 19:49, 17 July 2023 (UTC)

 * Keep - Per SportingFlyer. Young player with ongoing career in German women's Frauen-Bundesliga, one of best women leagues in world. Article needs improvement, not deletion. Thanks, Das osmnezz (talk) 16:33, 18 July 2023 (UTC)
 * Keep per sources above which show notability. GiantSnowman 18:26, 18 July 2023 (UTC)
 * Keep. Badische Zeitung allows viewing up to five articles per month on free email registration, if you can navigate their broken email registration system. I believe this Sept. 2020 article covering her transition from forward at SV Werder Bremen to defender at SC Freiburg, in addition to the above coverage I've incorporated to the article, fulfill the WP:RS/WP:IS/WP:SIGCOV requirements. -Socccc (talk) 22:01, 18 July 2023 (UTC)
 * Comment All you have done is WP:REFBOMB with press releases, brief mentions and unreliable sources (Bild). No matter how many times her contract renewal with Freiburg is cited it is routine coverage that does not go to passing GNG. Dougal18 (talk) 08:59, 19 July 2023 (UTC)


 * Delete - I agree with Dougal18 that this article fails WP:GNG for now. The Badische Zeitung article from 6 November 2020 looks like it is SIGCOV (I tried unsuccessfully to register to read it in its entirety), but nothing else comes close. The 2008 article about her dream of playing professionally (as a 9-year old :)) is interesting, but only a paragraph. The other coverage is not in-depth or entirely routine (as noted above, when dozens of media organizations carry the same press release about a contract announcement, it's not a sign of notability). I would support draftification as an alternative to deletion since I think it's just a matter of time before there is more in-depth coverage available. Jogurney (talk) 18:02, 20 July 2023 (UTC)
 * Keep As per SportingFlyer. MrsSnoozyTurtle 23:13, 21 July 2023 (UTC)
