- Delete Someone who plays on his team would be notable; it's in the top league in his country. However, I can't find any evidence that this guy exists. A google search for "Armando Herrera" Andorra doesn't provide anything that says he plays for that team. Paragon12321 02:26, 15 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- We went over this ad nausaum at the recent AfD on a player who played in the Faroe Islands. Playing in the top league in a country does not automatically confer notability if the league is non-professional and matches are played out in front of crowds equivalent to those seen in the Northern Premier League. Or, in other words, delete -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 08:00, 15 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Only the first part of your argument is actually true - even if the Andorran league had an average attendance of 500, if it is fully professional, it confers notability according to WP:ATHLETE. For instance, FC Vaduz has an average attendance of somewhere between 1,000 and 2,000 (they play in the Swiss Super League) - I'm sure there are Conference teams that average triple that number. ugen64 (talk) 02:52, 19 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]
