Supoj Wonghoi

Google search only comes up with sites that link to Wikipedia. Therefore he fails WP:ATHLETE. Spiderone (talk) 15:49, 17 July 2009 (UTC)

 * Delete per nom; non-notable footballer who fails WP:ATHLETE. GiantSnowman 16:48, 17 July 2009 (UTC)
 * Keep based on research below from Phil Bridger which shows that this player has played in a fully-pro league, meaning he passes WP:ATHLETE. GiantSnowman 14:16, 19 July 2009 (UTC)


 * Delete - I couldn't find any evidence that he has played for Sriracha. Jogurney (talk) 18:06, 17 July 2009 (UTC) Per the evidence below, it seems that Wonghoi has played for Srirachi in the Thai Premier League. I've changed my !vote to keep. Jogurney (talk) 02:44, 20 July 2009 (UTC)
 * Keep - He's listed on the club's web page as number 19 - "สุพจน์ วงษ์หอย" that transliterates to "sòo-pót wong hŏi" so he's certainly on their roster. As they only list 23 players, it would seem likely that he has made appearances.  I can find one media article that mentions him -  which appears to be a game report.  He looks legit to me.

 * When I click on the link all I get is a "Oops! This link appears to be broken." message from Google...GiantSnowman 11:35, 19 July 2009 (UTC)
 * I just clicked on it, and it worked; maybe it was down. Nfitz (talk) 23:30, 19 July 2009 (UTC)


 * Keep. As User:Nfitz points out, he's listed on Sriracha FC website.  If Thai pro footballers are generally not notable and fail WP:ATHLETE, the issue should be addressed systematically since about 3/4 of the current squad have their own similar one-line unreferenced article.  —   AjaxSmack   03:23, 19 July 2009 (UTC)
 * Keep. These appear to be match reports showing that the subject has played in the Thai Premier League, at least as far as I can make out from Google's translations, which are very difficult to read without laughing (e.g. "Dragon-headed unicorn no fear, terrified of the sea turtle Master stabbing attack share points").
