**There is a well-established consensus that an article on a footballer who has only played a handful of minutes in a fully-pro league (as Pinheiro may have), doesn't meet the spirit of NFOOTBALL.

***Fair enough, I wasn't aware of that AfD - appreciate you linking that. Still feel the way things currently are leads itself to inconsistency, a full set of definitive guidelines would be preferred other past consensus that (please correct me if I'm wrong) isn't listed anywhere clear so, evidently, gets lost as time goes by. At the moment, to any new editor, it just looks like NFOOTY is enough - which isn't helpful. Probably is a semi-unusual situation as most articles in question would have played multiple matches or none at all, but it still would be nice to have an easy to find guideline that gives a definitive answer - not: may/may not, is/isn't unless etc. [[User:R96Skinner|R96Skinner]] ([[User talk:R96Skinner|talk]]) 00:04, 18 October 2018 (UTC) |

Footballer who seemingly fails both WP:NFOOTY and GNG. BlameRuiner (talk) 12:26, 15 October 2018 (UTC)

- Keep - Looks like the player featured once for NK Inter Zaprešić in the 2007–08 Croatian First Football League, a league listed over at Wikipedia:WikiProject Football/Fully professional leagues. Footbal Database backs that up. R96Skinner (talk) 17:15, 15 October 2018 (UTC)
- Delete He may have played a Prva Liga match, but it's barely verifiable: [1]. His 20 minutes at Poljud may pass WP:FOOTY, but I believe this is otherwise a directory entry which completely fails WP:GNG. SportingFlyer talk
- Delete - article about a semi-pro footballer who may have played one match in a fully-pro league. I can barely find any coverage of this footballer outside of routine match reports from his play in semi-pro leagues. Not enough here to satisfy NFOOTBALL or GNG. Jogurney (talk) 17:33, 17 October 2018 (UTC)
- Comment - I respect what the above editors have said, certainly see where they are coming from, but I feel the current system needs a larger discussion somewhere else rather than on a specific AfD. I understand the whole argument of NFOOTY being secondary to GNG and that Wikipedia:WikiProject Football/Fully professional leagues is an essay - completely correct. However, that doesn't stop the fact that articles are being judged firmly on NFOOTY during AfDs currently. This brings inconsistency, which isn't good. For example, if this AfD ends in delete it won't change anything on the wider scale; very similar articles will still come and go, with some being deleted and some being kept. I don't feel like this should be the case, consistency should be key surely? R96Skinner (talk) 20:13, 17 October 2018 (UTC)
- There is a well-established consensus that an article on a footballer who has only played a handful of minutes in a fully-pro league (as Pinheiro may have), doesn't meet the spirit of NFOOTBALL. See Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Sawyer Gaffney - which contains links to several earlier AfDs reaching the same conclusion. Jogurney (talk) 23:33, 17 October 2018 (UTC)
