Comment - now this is an interesting one. I can't find any evidence to confirm whether he played for Partick's first team or not (which wouldn't be enough to pass WP:ATHLETE anyway - as far as I can tell, they were in the 2nd Division at the time). However, it seems he attracted a fair bit of publicity in Iceland for killing a man in a nightclub brawl. There's no refs in the article at the moment, but earlier versions of the page contained some English language refs about this incident, and a few more can be found on Google (English [1][2]) (Icelandic [3]) Question is, is this a single event issue or would the publicity (English and Icelandic) about this incident be enough to pass our general notability guidelines?

Delete - fails WP:ATHLETE and WP:GNG. His brush with the law violates WP:BLP1E. Giant Snowman 13:58, 13 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Delete - Soccerbase confirms that he never played higher than the Scottish second division, so fails WP:ATHLETE. The BLP1E issue has been mentioned as well. J Mo 101 (talk) 15:17, 17 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]
