Probably too controversial for PROD so I'm putting it up for AfD. I do not believe that Elanga meets WP:NFOOTY or WP:GNG.

  • [1] - focused on him but quite short
  • [2] - very brief article about a Twitter video
  • [3] - yet another article based off a bunch of tweets about a youth football match
  • [4] - the closest to WP:SIGCOV so far
  • [5] - he has a lot of articles on United in Focus but I'm guessing that this can't count towards GNG as it would be a non-independent source
  • [6] - another article based off the same Twitter video and Youth Cup appearance as some of the others


Would suggest delete or draftify. Spiderone 14:17, 17 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete - fails GNG and NFOOTBALL. There is no significant coverage from reliable, third-party sources - just fan site and the usual 'oh wow look at this young player doing a trick in a match' clickbait. GiantSnowman 14:59, 17 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete - Article lacks independent sources to backup the page. Sliekid (talk) 15:31, 17 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete - Definitely not notable enough for an article. The funny thing is, he's closer to the first team than Hannibal Mejbri is, and yet Hannibal's article survived deletion over the summer. What a world we live in! – PeeJay 18:24, 17 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
