Delete. Or redirect to Essam Yassin if deemed appropriate. Same player. Argyle 4 Life^talk 01:49, 4 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Delete - fails WP:GNG and WP:NFOOTBALL. Giant Snowman 16:17, 4 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Delete - fails WP:NFOOTBALL & certainly doesn't pass WP:GNG. ★☆ DUCKISJAMMMY☆★ 01:38, 6 January 2012 (UTC) [reply]
Redirect to Essam Yassin. Mattythewhite (talk) 01:42, 6 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Comment Unless the Iraqi Premier League is a "fully professional league", this player fails WP:NFOOTBALL. Scottdrink (talk) 20:43, 6 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so a clearer consensus may be reached.

Relister's comment: I am adding the article Essam Yassin to this nomination, which is about the same person with slightly different content. Discussion should focus on whether the reasons given for deletion also apply to this second article, or if not, under which name the one article we need about this person should be kept.

Merge - Mr. Yasine is an Iraqi international, and therefore meets WP:NSPORT. However, two articles on one subject are clearly not necessary. Sir Sputnik (talk) 17:35, 8 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Redirect, no content on this page that isn't already on Essam Yassin. --Jimbo^[online] 17:52, 9 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Keep Essam Yassin - notability is conferred through his international cap. Issam Yasine should be a redirect. Mattythewhite (talk) 14:14, 13 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Comment - I'd like to change my 'vote'. Since we have a source for an international appearance, one article can remain. The Essam article dates back to 2009, so suggest keeping that, and setting Issam as a redirect. Looks like a similar argument to Mattythewhite. Cloudz 679 11:14, 14 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Keep - also changing my vote following the discloser of an international cap, keep Essam Yassin & Issam Yasine should be a redirect. ★☆ DUCKISJAMMMY☆★ 12:03, 14 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]
