Non-notable footballer. None of the sources cited meets the WP:GNG standard, and a search finds only social media accounts, routine match reports and stats. Was previously draftified and declined at AfC several times, but the author insists on publishing, so next stop AfD. -- DoubleGrazing (talk) 12:37, 10 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete Fails "WP:NFOOTY" According to WP:NFOOTBALL, a player is considered notable if they have participated in a fully professional league. While the article states that Younis made one appearance for Western Sydney Wanderers in the A-League, a single appearance might not be sufficient to establish notability.

  In any case, NFOOTY no longer applies, players must now meet GNG. -- DoubleGrazing (talk) 13:20, 10 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

  I appreciate you pointing this out to me! My apologies for not being aware of the latest changes in the guidelines. Now that I know WP:NFOOTY doesn't apply and players need to meet the General Notability Guidelines (GNG), I'll definitely keep that in mind for my future contributions to Wikipedia. If you have any more tips or insights, I'd be grateful if you could share them with me. Thanks a lot!Quantum^Realm (meow • pawtrack) 16:38, 10 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete - Football Talent Scout is written by a guest account so clearly is not WP:RS by any standard. The only other stuff that I can find are match report coverage like Greek Herald as well as social media and team sites. Nothing addressing him directly and in detail.

• Delete - no evidence of notability. If sources are found please ping me. GiantSnowman 18:44, 11 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
