Appears to fail both WP:GNG and WP:NFOOTBALL. The claim that he has played senior football for Cameroon is not supported by NFT or FIFA. GiantSnowman 09:50, 28 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]

- Keep and give a serious cleanup to. Player doesn't fail WP:NFOOTBALL. He played for 4/5 seasons in the WP:FPL-listed South African National First Division, as confirmed by Soccernet for his first two clubs. Unfortunately they stop giving player stats for that league after 2008, but online reports confirm his continuing to play for and sometime captain FC Cape Town until 2011, e.g. IOL April 2009, Kickoff April 2010, Kickoff Jan 2011. I find no evidence of his playing for Cameroon. Neither camfoot.com nor fecafootonline.com mention him in connection with international football.
Suggest moving him to Samuel Eboule or Samuel Eboule Bille, i.e surname last, and any passing admin might want to delete the infobox image, which has the name of a photo agency slapped across its middle. cheers, Struway2 (talk) 14:18, 28 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]
- This article wasn't helped by the bad formatting making it looks like all the clubs he'd played for were redlinks. I've corrected that, least. Morwen - Talk 14:35, 30 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]
- I've deleted the copyvio pic, and I'm more than happy to withdraw this AfD following excellent research (as ever!) by Struway2 which shows this player meets WP:NFOOTBALL. The name issue (further research of my own - I've also seen 'Eboule Bille' and 'Samuel Bille') is a matter for the talk page. GiantSnowman 14:40, 30 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]

- Keep he's played several seasons in the South African National First Division - I added some references to the article which support this. Jogurney (talk) 15:36, 3 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]
