Contested PROD. Article about a footballer who fails WP:GNG and who has not played in a fully pro league. PROD was contested on the grounds he has played in the qualifying rounds of the champions league. There is however a long standing consensus that playing in these rounds does not confer notability.

*Keep Correct me if I'm wrong, but having appeared in at least one match with one national league team qualifies the person for WP:NFOOTBALL. I see at least one reference there that he played (in 2010) and is currently playing matches in the Armenian premier league [1]. No caps (and really, Armenia?) but still. Or am I reading that wrong? §FreeRangeFrog 19:10, 17 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]

WP:NFOOTBALL requires an appearance in a fully professional league, as listed here. You'll note the Armenian Premier League is not among those listed as fully pro. Sir Sputnik (talk) 21:27, 17 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Comment Oh, wow. I was not aware of that. Seems a bit weird but I guess them's the rules. [2]. §FreeRangeFrog 21:38, 17 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Delete - fails WP:GNG and WP:NFOOTBALL. Giant Snowman 08:56, 19 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Delete - article is about a footballer who hasn't played in a fully pro league or represented his country in at senior level, which means that the article fails WP:NFOOTY. Also fails WP:GNG due to lack of coverage in reliable sources. Mentoz86 (talk) 13:13, 19 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]
