Turkish footballer. I'm no football expert, but this guy's bio has far less sources than we expect a BLP to have, raising concerns both regarding WP:V and WP:N generally, and WP:NFOOTY specifically, as it seems that the teams he played for did not play in top-level leagues. But there may be relevant Turkish-language sources. Sandstein 19:56, 3 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Keep - Kekıllı appeared in 6 Turkish Super Lig (fully-pro league) matches for Kocaelispor which satisfies NFOOTY. Article needs some work, but that's not a reason to delete. Jogurney (talk) 03:05, 4 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Keep per Jogurney passes WP:FOOTY has played 6 matches in a WP:FPL Süper Lig for Kocaelispor .Pharaoh of the Wizards (talk) 16:34, 4 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Keep - He has played in the Turkish Super Lig, meaning the article passes WP:NSPORT. Sir Sputnik (talk) 17:17, 4 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Withdrawn. The above is not convincing - to retain a WP:BLP, we still require reliable sources, and per WP:GNG, we still require substantial coverage in reliable sources. However, surprisingly, the man is covered by the German lowbrow media as a participant in a dancing show, e.g. at [1]. I suppose that's enough to barely satisfy requirements.
