Abdulmajeed Al Abbas does not satisfy association football notability guidelines. The subject has not played for a team at the highest level in Saudi Arabia. This draft also does not describe significant coverage that would satisfy general notability. This article was already move from article space to draft space once by User:Spiderone, and has been moved back to article space, so that any further draftification can only be done on the AFD close. Moving this article back to draft space a second time would be edit-warring. Robert McClenon (talk) 04:31, 4 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Delete - as does not pass WP:NFOOTY currently; has played for parent club (which is an FPL club) in cup competiton but not against FPL opposition, so could achieve notability in (near) future. No prejudice against draftifying as an alternative, or re-creation as and when appropriate. Eagleash (talk) 08:32, 4 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Delete - fails GNG and NFOOTBALL. Giant Snowman 08:58, 4 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Delete - this is, at best, a massive WP:TOOSOON. His only game for Al-Nassr was against a 3rd tier side so does not pass WP:NFOOTBALL. No significant coverage cited and searching his name in Arabic comes up with nothing outside a squad list mention, Kooora, Soccerway and his clubs' own websites. The draft can be retained if people wish for it to be but this doesn't meet our agreed minimum inclusion criteria and I see no reason for us to ignore notability guidelines in this case.

Has anyone reviewed the Arabic-language sources in the article? SportingFlyer T·C 10:46, 4 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

This is my assessment of the sources available:

Source	Independent?	Reliable?	Significant coverage?	Count source toward GNG?
Source assessment table:
https://www.kooora.com/?player=126372			Kooora is a stats website like Soccerway, no significant coverage	✘ No
https://ar.soccerway.com/matches/2019/11/09/saudi-arabia/champions-cup/afief/al-nasr-riyadh/3178028/			Soccerway match stats report	✘ No
https://web.archive.org/web/20200206101732/https://arriyadiyah.com/676957		?	Just a routine announcement about signing a contract. Mentioned once along with seven other players. No actual significant coverage of the player that is the subject of this AfD.	✘ No
https://twitter.com/ALJABALAIN79/status/1318180841227517953	?	?	A one-sentence transfer announcement on Twitter.	✘ No
https://int.soccerway.com/players/abdulmajeed-abbas/647448/			A Soccerway profile with barely any info let alone any significant coverage.	✘ No
