[edit] Danny Knowles

Tagged as an A7 candidate, but being a goalkeeper for the League 1 team Gillingham does seem to be an assertion of notability. Players in the Premier League are easy keepers, but I am not sure about players further down in the league system. I think this deserves discussion so I'm bringing it here and abstaining from voting.

I say Keep. Although he is currently out on loan to an Isthmian League club, there are other players at that level who have their own entry, also he may yet play for the Gills ChrisTheDude 08:34, 21 April 2006 (UTC)

Keep. The organization he's a part of seems to be highly notable within countries that regularly follow English football (soccer :-P), and he's sufficiently notable to merit a short article about him. However, taking a page from the Farscape: Dominar Bishan AfD, an article "List of Gillingham players" or some such, with a short bio for each and a link to the section on Danny Knowles would be a very good solution here.Captainktainer 19:28, 21 April 2006 (UTC)

Keep As the author of the article (or rather stub) I say keep, however I must admit, the information in the stub is pretty much all the information there is available on him at present. I think that the information on Danny Knowles should be kept, whether it requires its own section or whether we should follow Captainkrainer's solution is up to you.

• Keep Expand. Startup account 19:58, 26 April 2006 (UTC)
• Delete - Players in the Premier League are one thing, but below that are rarely notable. This should be a precedent for deleting some others. - Runcorn 22:03, 26 April 2006 (UTC)

• It's been announced today that he's not being kept on for next season. As I think it's extremely unlikely that he will go to another League club, I think the page can probably be deleted ChrisTheDude 11:58, 27 April 2006 (UTC)
