  • Speedy keep User has nominated ~25 articles for deletion in ~20 minutes. Imposisble that a WP:BEFORE was done for each, and the nominations appear to be in bad faith. NemesisAT (talk) 22:45, 22 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Note: This discussion has been included in WikiProject Football's list of association football-related deletions. Spiderone(Talk to Spider) 18:40, 23 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep Besides the fact that the nominator appears to have made the nomination in bad faith, there does appear to be independent coverage of Caesar. See [1][2][3]. I’m not familiar with Virgin Island Daily News or Cayman Compass, but they appear to be local newspapers in the American Virgin Islands and the Cayman Islands. Not sure how reliable or respected they are, but the point still stands. There is significant independent coverage of Caesar to warrant an article. Fats40boy11 (talk) 06:24, 24 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep - meets GNG. I don't think the sources above are SIGCOV, but this is. GiantSnowman 19:38, 24 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep - has clearly decided all players that play for national teams he does not feel confer notability are those which should be deleted. The usual revisionism and elitism around notability in sports. 22 international caps and ongoing international career. Zanoni (talk) 08:25, 25 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep passes WP:GNG.Pharaoh of the Wizards (talk) 12:56, 28 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep - I found another sources which show he is notable in British Virgin Islands: 5. In addition, he is a young 22-time international capped player with an ongoing career. I look at the other sports WikiProjects and they don't nearly have an article deleted per day, let alone 30. Article may need improvement, but definitely not deletion.
