WFails WP:NFOOTY and WP:GNG. FilFootyGuy (talk) 17:46, 21 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Keep He is notable because he qualifies for playing in a recognized fully professional league the Philippines Football League, and the reference provided in the article clear states that he featured in a match. Shotgun pete (talk) 6:06, 21 April 2018 (UTC)

Comment It's been discussed before at WP:FOOTY that the Philippines Football League, despite being labelled as a pro league, doesn't pass the criteria as a "fully professional league" (FPL). Therefore players who make an appearance in the league do not pass WP:NFOOTY. In this case, Linatoc also do not pass WP:GNG. FilFootyGuy (talk) 11:41, 22 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

It's listed over at Wikipedia:WikiProject Football/Fully professional leagues which is usually accepted. Further clarification needed perhaps. R96Skinner (talk) 12:53, 22 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Delete - Fails NFOOTY as has not played or managed senior international football nor played or managed in a fully professional league. The Philippines leagues is not fully professional. No indication that subject has garnered significant reliable coverage for any other achievements to satisfy GNG. Fenix down (talk) 17:08, 23 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Comment - How come the Philippines Football League is listed at fully professional league then; which you mention in your reason for deletion? R96Skinner (talk) 17:22, 23 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Comment - I agree why is the Philippines Football League listed at fully professional league then. When that list is used to determine which players qualify as being notable. Therefore in this case Linatoc does pass WP:GNG. Shotgun pete (talk) 6:06, 23 April 2018 (UTC)

Keep The Philipines League is listed as an FPL. If it's not really an FPL, it should be removed from that list. But we normally go by that list, and an AfD is not the appropriate place to discuss modifications to it. Smartyllama (talk) 19:35, 24 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Keep - Philippines Football League is listed at WP:FPL with multiple references as fully-pro. FYI @Fenix down:. Giant Snowman 08:35, 26 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]
