The result was delete. Consensus is that lists where the player has not at one time held their countries all time international scoring record are not inherently notable. Yes there is a reasonable lead and yes it is sourced, but it is sourced to routine match reports and the like, where his scoring is mentioned briefly in a wider context. I'm not seeing Altidores scoring record garnering significant coverage as a feat on its own. Fenix down (talk) 08:18, 19 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Per consensus at WP:FOOTY, developed through previous AfDs, international goalscorer lists should only be created for those who currently hold or have held the record for their resepctive country. Altidore (with 41 goals) is currently third, behind joint topscorers Landon Donovan and Clint Dempsey (57 goals; both have FLs of their own). SounderBruce 04:09, 12 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

- Keep consensus aside, this is a well developed article, with a meaty, sourced lead and well defined inclusion criteria. It's more than just a stats-dump posing as an article. Worst case, merge the info back into his own article. Lugnuts Fire Walk with Me 08:49, 13 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

- Delete - well-written article aside, there is no actual significant detailed/coverage here which justifies a standalone article. GiantSnowman 16:48, 13 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]
