Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Sandro Cárcamo

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The following discussion is an archived debate of the proposed deletion of the article below. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page (such as the article's talk page or in a deletion review). No further edits should be made to this page.

The result was delete. There is rough consensus that the subject does not meet the requirements of FOOTY, so that leaves the GNG argument. A list of sources is presented, and a list of arguments for why these sources don't add up to the significant coverage required by the GNG. These arguments are not refuted, and perusing them shows that indeed many cases are mere mentions, or not mentions at all, or indexes of articles that contain the name. So it must be delete.

Relisting: Was nominated recently as second article in a single nomination and got completely ignored both by the comments and by the closing admin, see Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Júnior Padilla. Fails WP:GNG and WP:NFOOTY. Has not played in a fully professional league and has not played in a FIFA sanctioned senior international match. - Sincerely, Taketa (talk) 06:05, 31 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]

WP:GNG is met, WP:NFOOTY doesn't need to be The FAQ on WP:SPORTS states "if the subject meets the general notability guideline, then he/she meets Wikipedia's standards for having an article in Wikipedia, even if he/she does not meet the criteria for the appropriate sports-specific notability guideline. The sports-specific notability guidelines are not intended to set a higher bar for inclusion in Wikipedia: they are meant to provide some buffer time to locate appropriate reliable sources when, based on rules of thumb, it is highly likely that these sources exist".Becky Sayles (talk) 06:44, 7 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so a clearer consensus may be reached.

@Becky Sayles: thank you for the links. I had not checked those links during the last AFD because a better reason to keep the other article was already posted and I assumed the links were about the other article. I have checked the links you provided (note link 5 is about the other article), and agree that there is enough to fulfill WP:GNG. Since there are other delete votes, I cannot widraw the nomination, but I am changing to neutral. All the best, Taketa (talk) 14:39, 7 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete - Fails WP:NFOOTY as has not played senior international football nor played in a fully professional league. No indication that subject has garnered significant reliable coverage for any other achievements to satisfy GNG. There are a lot of links above, but there are major problems with almost all of them. Mainly concerning their breivty, the fact that they are simply WP:ROUTINE match reporting where the player v briefly describes a match, are simply links to searches for the name or do not discuss the player in any real detail at all. To deal with them in order:
[18] - an interview of reasonable length, could with other links indicate GNG.
[19] - routine match reporting / speculation, this is about an upcoming match not the player in question.
[20] - This is about Junior Padilla, a completely different player.
[21] - a couple of brief quotes from the player. Nothing actually about him, just him commenting on his team. No GNG here.
[22] - the same link as number 2, cannot be used twice!
[23] - v brief comments by the player himself on his own fitness. No real substance to the article.
[24] - Simply a list of articles in which he is mentioned. Does nothing whatsoever to indicate a significant level of coverage, merely that his name crops up in match reports.
[25] [26] - Simply a list of articles in which he is mentioned. Does nothing whatsoever to indicate a significant level of coverage, merely that his name crops up in match reports.
[27] - This is a mtach report from the Motagua v Real Sociadad match. This is not about the player in question at all. He is mentioned only as a part of a wider whole in a routine match report.
[28] - Briefly mentions Carcamo, but actually about another GK, John Bodden in the main.
[29] - Thisi s the same link as number one so cannot be used again.
[30] - This is not an article about the player, he is merely mentioned as one of many in a poll to see who should be thee national keeper. other players get far more prominance in this article.
[31] - five line routine match report with extremely brief passing mention of the player. No in depth analysis of his performance or interview with him.
[32] - Routine match report, player mentioned v briefly to say he had a bad start.
[33] - routine match report with extremely brief passing mention of the player. No in depth analysis of his performance or interview with him.
[34] - the same link as number 2 and 6, cannot be used three times.
Aside from the fact that five of the links are repeats of only two separate articles, bar the first link provided, everything else is routine match reports, brief quotes or links to searches for the name. It is clear that this person is a regular player for a team, it is far from clear that there is significant coverage of the player in detail. Where the player is not the subject of the article, the mentions of him are exactly of the trivial sort GNG explicitly forbids. @Taketa: you might like to have another look at these?
