A perfectly good small professional footballer page. The people calling for it's deletion have still failed to give specific reasons. jack1986mkII — Preceding unsigned comment added by 143.159.172.231 (talk • contribs)

Delete I do not see any evidence that the player passes WP: GNG and WP:NFOOTBALL. Hhhhhkohhhhh (talk) 15:02, 19 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Keep per Struway2. Hhhhhkohhhhh (talk) 18:30, 20 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Delete - clear failure of relevant notability guidelines. Re-consider as and when he actually plays for Port Vale -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 15:06, 19 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

@ChrisTheDude: You can reconsider your vote after reading Struway2 note, thanks! Hhhhhkohhhhh (talk) 18:42, 20 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Delete Non-notable footballer, as he did not played in any fully professional league yet. WP:Crystal to guess he will made debut for Port Vale or not. Matthew_hk t c 15:30, 19 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

*Delete - Fails NFOOTY as has not played or managed senior international football nor played or managed in a fully professional league. No indication that subject has garnered significant reliable coverage for any other achievements to satisfy GNG. A case of WP:TOOSOON at best. Fenix down (talk) 15:37, 19 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Keep - Passes NFOOTY, has played senior international football, in a fully professional league or in a match in the competition proper (i.e. not qualifying rounds) of a cup competition which involved two teams both from FPLs. Fenix down (talk) 13:21, 22 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Keep now. Subject started Port Vale's match in League Two this afternoon. cheers, Struway2 (talk) 16:22, 20 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Delete This notion that a debut participation in a game gives notability shows just how wrong headed the notability guidelines for sportspeople are. Even an actor needs two significant roles in notable films. Here we do not require that the role in the game be in any way significant, and then for unexplained reasons give notability while appearing in only one game.John Pack Lambert (talk) 19:13, 20 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
~~Weak keep~~: EchetusXe has expanded some certain information based on the sources have provided for WP:NFOOTBALL, however, he just debut the participation in a game on not long ago, I think got a bit WP:TOOSOON. SA 13 Bro (talk) 00:28, 21 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Keep: Hmm...the WP:NFOOTBALL have been improved quite well, so I have decide to change the viewpoint from weak keep to keep. SA 13 Bro (talk) 18:37, 23 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
