Article's subject fails to meet WP:GNG. A search on GoogleNews produces no hits, a regular Google search shows pages of statistics but no substantive coverage. I have verified that there are no articles on him in either the Serbian or Serbo-Croatian Wikipedias. While he may appear to meet WP:NSPORT, he does not meet the the more-fundamental requirements of WP:GNG. KDS4444^Talk 09:04, 29 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]

*Keep - Sources indicate that the individual has played in a fully professional league and so passes WP:NFOOTY. Article needs expanding not deleting. Per current consensus, players who have played in a fully professional league are assumed notable. Presence or lack thereof on Serbian WP or any other Wiki is not relevant. Fenix down (talk) 11:43, 30 June 2014 (UTC) Actually not sure he has played FPL. Fenix down (talk) 11:53, 30 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Keep - numerous appearances in a fully-professional league, as confirmed by reliable sources, so this player meets WP:NFOOTBALL. Needs improving, not deleting, to bring in line with WP:GNG. Nomination smacks of WP:POINT. Giant Snowman 17:32, 30 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Comment - It was my understanding that the policies outlined in WP:NFOOTY and WP:NFOOTBALL, both under the heading of WP:NSPORTS, were only intended as useful guidelines, rules of thumb, and that WP:GNG still had to be met to justify a full article. This article is over five years old now with no meaningful citations, and I was able to find no evidence of this individual showing promise of becoming notable in the future. As a permanent WP:SUBSTUB, then, it appeared to fall in the category of deletable articles. Please clarify for me. Thanks. KDS4444^Talk 22:04, 30 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Keep - I added a lot more material to the article just hours ago. I firmly believe it merits to be kept as opposed to deleted, this player has an interesting story. In addition to this he played for FR Yugoslavia's youth team and had multiple seasons in the Serbian top flight. Check out my additions to the article.

Keep - Lukić has played in the fully-pro SuperLiga and the article appears to satisfy the GNG (the blic.rs article is significant coverage for sure). Jogurney (talk) 05:35, 4 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]
