Although the player has twice represented Tranmere to scrape past NFOOTY, I don't think there is sufficient coverage to merit an article at present. It is a TOOSOON case. The best option may be to draftify. No Great Shaker (talk) 14:19, 27 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Strong Keep - meets WP:NFOOTY and - also meeting "Have played for a fully professional club at a national level of the league structure. This must be supported by evidence from a reliable source on a club by club basis for teams playing in leagues that are not recognised as being fully professional." having played in the English Football League a fully professional league. There is no reason at all for this one to be nominated as an AFD - has three FL appearances, one FA Cup appearance and 2 also in the Football League Trophy, where he appeared in the 2021 competition final for the club vs Sunderland.

Zanoni WP:NFOOTY is a guideline on players likely to be notable, not an absolute guarantee that someone is notable. Don't see that they pass WP:GNG. Joseph2302 (talk) 09:16, 28 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Joseph2302, yep get this has crept in - but frankly it's still contested. This player has played three times in the Football League, and a Football League Trophy final as well. There's loads of articles out there with someone who played in EFL matches in the early 1900s with one, two, three appearances yet they are also notable - often as they played for clubs like Liverpool, Arsenal, Tottenham etc. Basically these deletion nominations are made by those making decisions on *who they think* are notable Zanoni (talk) 09:30, 28 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Delete or draftify doesn't currently meet WP:GNG. Joseph2302 (talk) 07:38, 28 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Weak Keep - meets WP:NFOOTY, but only just due to only playing two league matches. Rillington (talk) 12:33, 28 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

@Rillington: - three league matches...... -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 12:43, 28 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Keep - meets NFOOTBALL, ongoing career - needs improving, not deleting. Giant Snowman 19:10, 28 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]
