This player does not appear to have played for a first-tier professional team. Play for national youth teams is likewise not ipso facto qualifying, and there is no evidence of general notability guidelines. Robert McClenon (talk) 14:18, 22 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Comment - In the interest of preserving the discussion, I am copying the nominators rationale from Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Duwayne Ewart (2nd nomination). Sir Sputnik (talk) 13:35, 23 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

This individual does not appear to have played for a first-tier professional team. See association football notability guidelines. Robert McClenon (talk) 14:21, 22 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

The guideline you link to makes no reference to a "first-tier" professional team, it only requires that the subject have played in a fully professional league -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 15:28, 24 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Keep - He has played in the USL, a fully pro league per WP:FPL, meaning the article meets WP:NSPORT. Sir Sputnik (talk) 13:35, 23 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Keep - meets WP:NFOOTBALL; needs improving, not deleting. Giant Snowman 21:23, 23 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Keep - Easily satisfies notability standards, and do remember that AFD is not cleanup. Smartyllama (talk) 13:09, 26 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Keep - Passes NFOOTY, has played in a fully professional league or in a match in the competition proper (i.e. not qualifying rounds) of a cup competition which involved two teams both from FPLs. Fenix down (talk) 06:16, 26 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Keep per GiantSnowman - I couldn't put it any better myself - It does simply need improving and it does meet NFOOTBALL. –Davey2010^Talk 10:26, 29 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]
