Could you specify exactly which articles you're nominating and actually tag them? Users shouldn't have to wade through a category containing 180 articles looking for the ones which contain specific text to work out which ones they're !voting on..... -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 21:07, 5 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Keep. Articles should not be deleted because of "lack of content" if there still is enough content to make the article subject notable. And WP:ONEVENT does not apply, IMHO. Refereeing a World Cup match means that the referee has had several other noteworthy appearances. – Elisson • T • C • 00:37, 6 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Keep. How about trying to expand the articles rather than simply trying to delete them? WikiGull (talk) 09:05, 6 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Keep - I'm sure this fella is notable for more than just refereeing at the 1982 World Cup. I mean, he'd have had to do something of note to even be selected as a World Cup ref. – Pee Jay 09:24, 6 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Keep Notable. Needs expansion, but that's not a reason for deletion. --Dweller (talk) 12:27, 6 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]
