His four minutes of professional football for Rotherham give a presumption of notability under WP:NFOOTBALL but I haven't found anything to suggest he can even come close to WP:GNG. There is growing consensus - see this Wayne Stark AfD - that these sorts of articles should at least demonstrate something towards GNG. Following his very short time at Rotherham, he played for non-league clubs across Europe and Asia. He even struggled to get playing time in the Spanish 4th division.
I also found this but it's clearly written by Bolima. Sometimes these footballers gain a level of fame (or infamy) as a result of their brief careers but I'm not seeing that evidenced here. Spiderone 17:48, 27 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

- Except, of course, the current criteria does not match standard criteria... GiantSnowman 15:39, 28 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
- The aim is for this list to include all players that have played 100 or more senior matches. Which Bolima is no where near at! Govvy (talk) 17:10, 28 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete no reasonable inclusion criteria would make Bolima notable. It is time to tighten the ludicrously broad inclusion criteria that makes Bolima notable.John Pack Lambert (talk) 16:18, 30 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete - Article about footballer who played as an amateur except for one appearance in the Football League. I can't find any French- or English-language sources online that demonstrate it could meet the GNG. Jogurney (talk) 15:59, 1 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
