Was tagged as Unref-BLP, but now a reference has been added. Still an article of non-notable footballer. Fails notability criteria for footballers per NSPORTS as amateur and only age group international. Coverage is general sports journalism of general nature of type expected for general local sports persons. ClubOranje^T 09:00, 1 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Weak Delete Fails the General Notability Guideline. As an aside, while the article meets the letter of the BLP sourcing requirements, a link to a stat page does not, in my opinion, meet the spirit. --W F C-- 21:32, 1 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Changing from delete to weak delete to reflect the fact that work has been done, i.e. adding and sourcing the fact that he has played for New Zealand at youth level. Staying in delete because that alone doesn't confer notability, and the sourcing is still just a bunch of stats. --W F C-- 20:10, 2 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Comment I agree to a degree, but there is no requirement for a reference to prove notability, only verifiability.--ClubOranje^T 00:51, 2 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]
