This is an article about a non-notable footballer who has played no higher than the Greek fifth division and failed to get a contract in the (English) Wessex League. Prod removed with no explanation. Daemonic Kangaroo (talk) 19:28, 23 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete - per nom. He has not played in a fully pro league or received significant coverage, meaning the article fails WP:NSPORT and WP:GNG. Sir Sputnik (talk) 19:43, 23 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete - Definitely fails WP:NSPORT and WP:GNG... maybe WP:SNOW should be used here? JMHamo (talk) 20:35, 23 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]

This player is living person who has played for Blackpool FC Under 20s in 2009 on a 6 month contract which expired because he was injured before it's completion (3rd month), I know that as I am his agent and personal friend and unfortunately I can't prove otherwise as I don't have a paperwork from the FA about him. Furthermore he is 23 years old and he played in these leagues as a pro not in a first team squad but in the Under 20s (still consider pro footballer). As for Sholing FC I have proves but don't expext me to upload official documents online. The issue was concerned from Dusdeeper or whatever his nickname is supporting he didn't play in the Championship which is a true story but this doesn't make him a non-blackpool player. As about the deletion of the article I believe that you have to reconsider things and stop playing around.

• Delete - per nom. Fails WP:GNG and WP:NSPORT. Blackpool under 20s is not a sufficiently high level of football to confer notability.--Egghead06 (talk) 20:57, 23 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete - No where close to meeting the notability guidelines. – Michael (talk) 21:13, 23 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete - Delete article immediately please as I don't want my client to be shown in it anymore. Total unprofessional manner of handling this issue by the members of wikipedia (lack of experience of the professional football/soccer leagues around the world). As soon as possible.--Jordanjounior (talk) 00:14, 24 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete - vanity article for obviously non-notable footballer. Fails WP:GNG as the subject hasn't been the subject of significant coverage in reliable sources. Fails WP:NSPORTS - hasn't played in a fully professional football league. Hack (talk) 00:58, 24 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete - never played at a notable level. Not sure what prompted the strop from his apparent agent/friend above. If WP "members" have acted in an "unprofessional" manner, does that mean we're meant to be doing this professionally? When do I get paid for my eight years of work? ;-) -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 07:39, 24 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete - fails WP:GNG and WP:NFOOTBALL. GiantSnowman 08:48, 24 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Just for the record, the term professional doesn't only concern money/payments but also attitude (the manner in which you treat your and others work), you can get paid for it (not my issue, forward your complains to wikipedia) or not but in both ways you can be professional by the way you handle things. By the way I am doing this as a volunteer so don't use irony every time you think that someone hearts you feelings or your work ( I am in the second parameter my self even though I have an article written with more academical way than most of them and with sufficient prove about most of the sources, if I had more I would have given them but they don't exist online ). It's not personal. Kind Regards. --Jordanjounior (talk) 11:43, 24 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]
