This article was originally created by banned user Sander.v.Ginkel, recreated by a Slowking sock, recreated again by a SvG sock, and has now been "cleaned up" and reinstated. It has three sources. The first is worthless ([1]). The second does not mention her. The third is a directory. This article - every version of it, ever, pretty much, fails WP:NOTDIR. Subject-specific notability guidelines don't trump WP:V/WP:GNG/WP:NOT, especially for living people. Guy (help!) 23:41, 29 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

- That seems like a perfectly sensible solution where players have no significant biographical sources, and I definitely suport it. Guy (help!) 09:37, 30 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]
- I disagree, as then it would eventually just become a "list of..." type of article which isn't a positive for a club/national team article that is, obviously, about the team - not the player(s). R96Skinner (talk) 13:07, 30 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]
- Agreed, that's the worst possible solution. If they're not notable enough for their own articles, they're definitely not notable enough to have a short biography in the much more widely-read articles about the teams. That would require more, not less, notability than having one's own article. It's a reasonable solution for a sort-of-notable band with four members, but not for a football team. /Julle (talk) 19:39, 30 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]
- Oh, does NFOOTBALL introduce an exception to GNG and BLP to allow articles with no substantive reliable independent sources? Guy (help!) 09:36, 30 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep meets WP:NFOOTY and WP:GNG. She made three international appearances, and was included in the squad at two major tournaments (Olympics and UEFA Women's Championship). It can be difficult to find online sources for women's footballers prior to the 21st century, though I have expanded the article. S.A. Julio (talk) 10:15, 30 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete Fails WP:GNG almost as hard as the various fictional entries that have clogged AfD these last weeks. The only source listed that even starts to qualify is a single sentence recap of her season. Verba Delenda Est! Rockphed (talk) 13:10, 30 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep Meets WP:NFOOTY#1 "Players who have played in, and managers who have managed in any Tier 1 International Match, as defined by FIFA, in a competitive senior international match ..., or the Olympic Games. The notability of these is accepted as they would have received significant coverage as outlined above in the general notability criteria." My emphasis: the fact that we can't find more coverage online from 23 years ago (and probably in Swedish) is not a reason to ignore this guideline.

- Keep There have to be sources out there as she comepted in the 1996 Summer Olympics which is the highest tier without the World Cup for a women's football player. HawkAussie (talk) 08:50, 2 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep passes WP:NFOOTY and has competed in the 1996 Summer Olympics.Pharaoh of the Wizards (talk) 19:06, 2 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep meets WP:NFOOTY, and an Olympian to boot. Swedish language sources from that era are going to be hard to find - we establish notability criteria to avoid having to find them - and this one isn't even borderline. Nfitz (talk) 03:33, 5 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]
