The following discussion is an archived debate of the proposed deletion of the article below. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page (such as the article's talk page or in a deletion review). No further edits should be made to this page.

The result was delete. Consensus to delete, sole keep vote conceded the subject doesn't pass NFOOTY, but did not provide any sources to support wider GNG and so is not sufficient to warrant relisting. Fenix down (talk) 23:25, 18 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Footballer with a very, very brief career limited only to WP:NOTFPL leagues. No caps mentioned on Soccerway or Ozfootball. A search of Google News yields two squad list mentions. DDG yields nothing of note either. Source analysis to follow. Spiderone(Talk to Spider) 11:36, 11 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete - fails GNG and NFOOTBALL. GiantSnowman 12:52, 11 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete as per Spiderone. WikiJoeB (talk) 17:19, 11 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment @Spiderone: Both OzFootball and Soccerway show 13 caps over 2 seasons. Why did you write No caps mentioned on Soccerway or Ozfootball? --SuperJew (talk) 18:39, 11 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]
SuperJew caps in the context that I was using it was referring to full international caps. If she does have these then she does meet one half of WP:NFOOTBALL. As things stand, she only has WP:NOTFPL games so wouldn't meet the SNG. If she meets the GNG, however, then the article can be kept. If she does not meet GNG then there is enough consensus from recent cases of Australian soccer players such as Sarah Groenewald, Tiarn Powell, Alesha Clifford and Jessica Seaman and others to delete. Spiderone(Talk to Spider) 17:26, 12 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]
@Spiderone: Then you should write that you mean international caps. What you wrote, the meaning is caps in general, club or international level. As we've already crossed paths on quite a few AfD and WT:FOOTY discussions, you don't need to explain to me the meaning of WP:NFOOTY and you know that I think it's nonsense that the top level league in Australia doesn't confer suggested notability in the same way that the top level league in for example Honduras does. So anyways my argument here would be to Keep. I'm sure there's sources and potential to expand the article, but I don't have the time or resources to deal with it now. --SuperJew (talk) 07:41, 13 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment - ProQuest has no in-depth coverage of Forbes, in addition to the searches already conducted above in my nomination statement. Spiderone(Talk to Spider) 11:32, 13 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]
