The result was delete. Just about consensus to delete. There's some sourcing available and I wouldn't stand in the way of recreation if that could be expanded upon. Fenix down (talk) 07:08, 18 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Footballer who fails GNG and NFOOTY. Alleged national team appearances not supported by sources --BlameRuiner (talk) 19:51, 3 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

I would kindly ask KingSkyLord (talk · contribs) to stop dePRODing every football player article he sees. --BlameRuiner (talk) 19:53, 3 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]
- @BlameRuiner: I did not dePROD all of them. Just the ones that I thought I could argue for keeping around. @Jogurney also dePRODed some of them as well. Playing in a Tier 1 International match automatically passes WP:NFOOTY, therefore passing WP:GNG. I would look for more citations rather than just delete it as a whole, which is very stressful cause he plays in Uganda and the less coverage. Although there may be possibly some good sources if we look hard enough. Seems like more of a stub than anything else. KingSkyLord (talk | contribs) 20:06, 3 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Delete I didn't find any sources to prove he has been capped for Uganda for a WP:NFOOTY pass. He also fails WP:GNG due to a lack of in depth coverage. Dougal18 (talk) 07:50, 4 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Delete - fails GNG and NFOOTBALL. Giant Snowman 08:19, 4 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Weak Keep He got called up to the Cranes U23, not the Cranes. There have been several articles on him specifically as a footballer and he just might pass WP:GNG as he's a striker for one of the most prominent Ugandan club teams, Vipers SC. [1] [2] as a sample. He technically fails WP:NFOOTY but the Ugandan league is decently well covered by that country's national press and he may very well pass WP:GNG SportingFlyer T·C 06:34, 9 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Delete he does not yet meet our insanely broad football inclusion rules. Wikipedia is supposed to be limited to articles on people who have made an impact and received coverage, not just every person who ever was fielded in a professional game.John Pack Lambert (talk) 16:37, 11 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]
