Branimir Kostadinov[edit]

Previously prodded, now recreated. Youth team footballer with no first team appearances ever, clearly fails WP:ATHLETE. Angelo (talk) 22:48, 13 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Delete per nom. --Jimbo^[online] 23:53, 13 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Comment - the article claims that this player plays in the Scottish Premiere League, which is a fully professional league. It would seem to me that this very much meets WP:ATHLETE. Am I missing something? LonelyBeacon (talk) 03:36, 14 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- While he is on the books of Heart of Midlothian, whose senior team do indeed play in the SPL, to date he has only played for their under-18 team, who do not compete in a fully professional league -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 07:15, 14 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Comment - Thank you for that explanation. Being a yank, it did not seem to make sense, but it is clear now. LonelyBeacon (talk) 07:21, 14 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Delete - Based on this, fails WP:ATHLETE. LonelyBeacon (talk) 07:21, 14 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Delete fails WP:ATHLETE. Giant Snowman 16:26, 14 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Delete if/when he plays for the senior team, he can get an article. Until then, delete. Vickser (talk) 21:44, 14 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Delete Fails to assert notability under WP:ATHLETE and WP:FOOTYN as he seems to have had no appearances yet. -- Alexf⁴² 22:24, 15 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Delete as per above reasons. nn. - Jameson L. Tai ^{talk ♦ contribs} 01:14, 18 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
