Player fails WP:NFOOTY and WP:GNG. According to article creator who removed the PROD, Morrison is a professional who plays for a top flight club and has played over 30 professional matches. However, that is not correct. WP:NFOOTY means that Morrison must PLAY in a FULLY-PROFESSIONAL league. Motherwell are a fully-pro team but Morrison has never had a first-team appearance for them. Additionally, his only pro matches were in Scottish League Two, which is not listed in WP:FPL. ArsenalFan700 (talk) 19:56, 14 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

@ArsenalFan700:Is there a way to de-convert it back to a draft, where it can be improved, until such a time as he has a appeared in a first team match for Motherwell. I do believe Morrison has appeared for Motherwell, albeit for 2 minutes, in the final home game of Motherwell's 2012-13 season, in which he replaced departing goalkeeper Darren Randolph to allow for a standing ovation, please correct me if I am wrong.Adric of Alzarius (talk) 20:06, 14 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

It was Lee Hollis source --ArsenalFan700 (talk) 20:10, 14 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Morrison was only 15 at the time, so it would have been unlikely (albeit not impossible) for it to have been him...... -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 20:22, 14 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Delete - fails GNG and NFOOTBALL. Has not played in a fully-pro league, only semi-pro/nearly amateur Scottish League Two. Giant Snowman 20:01, 14 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Delete - semi-pro player who does not satisfy GNG. ‡ Єl Cid of Valencia ^talk 20:19, 14 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Comment Can this be reverted to draft? Or retrieved if/when he makes a professional appearance? If so, yep I'm happy for it to be deleted.Adric of Alzarius (talk) 20:45, 14 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, it can be very easily restored, and I am happy to do so if/when he makes his Motherwell debut. Giant Snowman 21:44, 14 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
