Restored article previously deleted by PROD. Concern was Article about a footballer who fails WP:GNG and who has not played in a fully pro league. This remains valid. The article was restored on the grounds that it had previously been kept per afd. See: Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Ahmed Matar. Keep !votes in the previous afd were based on sources listed at WP:FPL at the time, which did not actually confirm that the Kuwaiti Premier League is fully pro.

Delete - fails WP:GNG due to lack of significant coverage, and also fails WP:NFOOTBALL as he has never played in a fully-pro league or at senior international level. Giant Snowman 16:12, 16 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Delete - article is about a footballer who hasn't played in a fully pro league or represented his country at senior level, which means that the article fails WP:NFOOTBALL. Also fails WP:GNG due to lack of coverage in reliable sources. Mentoz86 (talk) 18:04, 20 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Delete. Fails WP:NFOOTBALL. The player hasn't played in any of the leagues listed as fully professional, nor has he competed in international competitions. Apart from that, significant coverage can't be found per WP:GNG. --Batard0 (talk) 12:45, 24 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]
