The footballer never played in a fully professional league, thereby failing WP:NFOOTY. There is some local coverage, which I do not find sufficient for passing WP:GNG. Ymblanter (talk) 06:55, 29 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Miyamoto played for Balzan F.C. and Sanglea Athletic F.C., the teams from the Maltese Premier League. The player has appearances during matches of Balzan F.C. and Sanglea Athletic F.C. Apart from that, the player meets criteria of general notifiability WP:NFOOTY. The article is to be improved in the near future, however for the players at the beginning of the career, mostly basic information on websites such as transfermarkt, soccerway, everpedia etc. is available. News article about the transfer was also added as a source. WP:GNG. Iplegal (talk) 13:26, 29 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]

  • Weak Delete - In accepting this page, after verifying that the subject had played at the highest level in Malta, I did not check whether that league is considered fully professional. I should have made a more thorough check and declined the draft. Robert McClenon (talk) 14:17, 29 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]

The winner of the Maltese Premier League qualifies to UEFA Champions League. Does this fact change the review of the league as professional (regardless of Wikipedia listing)? If not, I respect the decision about delation.Iplegal (talk) 16:55, 29 April 2019 (UTC).[reply]

  • Delete (probably wp:TOOSOON). No, the winner of a league playing in a tournament that's professional doesn't mean that notability inherits onto the entire league. On the other hand if he himself actually plays in the UEFA Champion's League I'd be more than happy to say he has played in a professional league and reverse my vote to keep. For that matter I'd do so for the UEFA Europa League (which is more likely). Neonchameleon (talk) 15:21, 29 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete Fails WP:NFOOTBALL and WP:GNG. Even if a Maltese team won the CL or the EL their players still don't pass WP:NFOOTBALL. Dougal18 (talk) 16:02, 29 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete Same as nom. Fails WP:NFOOTBALL. Sincerely, Masum Reza 01:56, 30 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]
