I can't find any proof this guy even exists after looking through both english and translated thai results. Can't have someone on here who's unverifiable. Wizardman Operation Big Bear 06:25, 9 March 2011 (UTC)

*Delete - His club appearances would be insufficient to grant notability even if they were verified. If he had played for the Thai national team, he would be notable, but as the nominator pointed out, there is no evidence of that. Sir Sputnik (talk) 15:03, 9 March 2011 (UTC)
 * Delete Even if he does exist, he has not made an appearance in a professional game, and thus fails WP:NFOOTY. Since there is no significant coverage in reliable sources, the article also fails WP:V. Tooga - BØRK! 12:06, 9 March 2011 (UTC)

 * Delete - fails WP:NFOOTBALL and WP:GNG. GiantSnowman 12:26, 10 March 2011 (UTC)
 * Keep, I think... This Thai blog, while not a WP:RS, lists a player of this name as having scored twice in the 1994 Asian Games against Uzbekistan and scoring against India in 1995. RSSSF, which is a reliable source, confirms a Somrit scoring against India, and confirms a Somrit Ornsomchit (slightly different transliteration) scoring twice against Uzbekistan. Google-translating this Hanoi news source gives a 33-year-old "former national team striker Somrit Ornsomchit Thailand" signing for a Vietnamese club in 2004. Assuming it's the same person, he passes WP:NFOOTBALL as a Thai national team player. cheers, Struway2 (talk) 15:24, 10 March 2011 (UTC)
