Recreation of an article previously deleted by PROD. Concern was Non-notable young player who fails WP:GNG and WP:NFOOTBALL. The article still fails WP:GNG. While it technically passes WP:NSPORT, let's apply some WP:COMMONSENSE here. Playing a grand total of one minute in a regional league doesn't make him any more notable than before the last deletion.

Delete -- most importantly fails WP:GNG, and one minute on the field as a professional is not enough. Giant Snowman 10:38, 20 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Delete - but feel free to receate when sufficient coverage in reliable sources is available. Jogurney (talk) 14:44, 20 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Delete, as he fails WP:GNG. Playing for an amazing 60 seconds in a fully professional league doesn't grant notability. – Kosm1 fent 17:57, 21 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Keep - when he passes WP:NFOOTBALL there is no need to pass WP:GNG. And if we apply WP:COMMONSENSE - this article is about a young footballer who recently made his debut in a WP:FPL, it's not like it's a article about a retired footballer who played a total of 60 seconds in a WP:FPL throughout his career. Those 60 seconds is just the beginning of the rest of his career. Mentoz86 (talk) 09:27, 22 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]
- Au contraire, GNG prevails over NFOOTY. The latter guideline assumes that the subject meets GNG without the need to look for sources. In fact, NFOOTY itself states: "The notability of these is accepted as they would have received significant coverage as outlined above in the general notability criteria.". However, if it's shown that the subject has not received such coverage (which makes sense, 60 seconds is far too little time for someone to attract media attention), then the article may well be deleted. Of course, I don't think anyone objects to recreation once he gets more playing time, we just feel it's too soon now. – Kosm1 fent 09:39, 22 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]
  - If I remember correctly, there were another deletion discussion not long ago, where WFC nominated another footballer for deletion as he only had played 1 match, but the closing admin stated that when WP:NFOOTBALL is met, there is no need to meet WP:GNG, but I can't find that deletion discussion (only found this one, which is more or less the same as this one).
