There many such similar articles which have been created for each player of a football team. However, there is no indication of significance and thus must either be put under one page or better, just wait until more information can be found. The Wikimon (talk) 12:53, 10 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Comment He's played several games in the highest-level Turkish league for Mersin İdmanyurdu SK, a professional club in a fully-professional league (albeit one that was only promoted in 2011 and is soon to fall out of the top level)[1] and therefore meets WP:NFOOTY. He seems to have received some coverage in Turkish media so the article could be expanded.[2][3] --Colapeninsula (talk) 14:44, 10 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

KEEPFor footballers to be notable he is to pass WP:NFOOTY and WP:GNGThe turkish league is fully pro 16:33, 10 April 2013 (UTC)
Keep - with forty some odd appearances in the Süper Lig, he clearly passes WP:NSPORT. Sir Sputnik (talk) 17:16, 10 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Keep - passes WP:NFOOTBALL by some way; article needs improving, not deleting. Giant Snowman 20:52, 10 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Keep: While I think WP:NFOOTBALL is a wholly inadequate criteria compared to WP:PROF, this individual has been paid to step onto a field. Ergo, he satisfies the notability criteria. Praemonitus (talk) 00:43, 11 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Keep: Passes WP:NFOOTY. Needs improving however. --ArsenalFan700 (talk) 14:48, 11 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Keep - The article needs improvement but it passes WP:NFOOTBALL. — Joaquin008 ^(talk) 10:27, 12 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Keep as above, article should be expanded as there is enough to demonstrate notability. C 679 20:58, 15 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
