Sheyi Ojo

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Contested PROD. Concern was that the article Fails WP:GNG and WP:NFOOTBALL. PROD was contested without a reason being provided. Sir Sputnik (talk) 20:00, 5 January 2015 (UTC)

 * Weak Keep - based on, (goes a little beyond just a routine quick interview), // (how many 14 year olds get this level of coverage for signing a contract with a club, even a Liverpool/Chelsea size club?). Absolutely no question that he fails NFOOTY, but I *think* he meets GNG based on these sources.  Luke no 94  (tell Luke off here) 20:08, 5 January 2015 (UTC)
 * Delete - certainly fails WP:NFOOTBALL, and seems to fail WP:GNG. Not convinced by the coverage, it's all too "OMG a young prospect!!!" for my liking. GiantSnowman 20:58, 5 January 2015 (UTC)
 * Delete - clear NFOOTY fail, and the coverage noted above is very much along the lines of routine, "this guy could be great in a few years" gossip. What has this player actually done? Answer: nothing, he is just a hot prospect potentially, he hasn't even crashed and burned and generated coverage because of that. Fenix down (talk) 10:01, 6 January 2015 (UTC)
 * Delete - Not convinced the article meets WP:GNG. Clearly fails WP:NFOOTBALL. – Michael (talk) 23:43, 6 January 2015 (UTC)

 * Delete. Clearly fails WP:NFOOTBALL. I see no independent non-trivial coverage at all: "young lad does well at little club, goes to big club and might play for them sometime" is no basis for appearance in an encyclopedia. It's decent background material for when and if he actually does something worth noting, but that's all. cheers, Struway2 (talk) 10:18, 8 January 2015 (UTC)
