- Keep So how many Premier League matches is notable? Five? Ten? The football notability guideline is pretty clear, and has to work both ways – plenty of footballers who have played one match in a pro league are kept in AfD, while well-referenced articles of footballers who have signed to a major club are often deleted citing the same guideline. --Canley (talk) 07:59, 31 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Comment His 16 appearances for Bournemouth and 5 for Wycombe were also at a fully pro level, so he made 23 appearances at a fully pro level, easily enough to satisfy the requirement of WP:BIO ChrisTheDude (talk) 08:01, 31 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]
