The result wasDelete does not meet the professional criteria as pointed out, as Kosovo is a province of a country, and also no unusual things or achievements that make him pass on other grounds. Blnguyen (bananabucket) 06:22, 21 May 2007 (UTC)

• Keep. Plays at professional level of sports. Satisfies athlete criteria. the_undertow ^talk 01:48, 8 May 2007 (UTC)
  • Comment FWIW, the notability criteria requires that an athlete play in a fully professional league. Merely playing in a professional league isn't enough. Ytny (talk) 03:52, 8 May 2007 (UTC)
• Keep has played in top-level national soccer. That's notable enough. —Resurgent insurgent 2007-05-08 02:32Z
  • Not according to our guidelines. Punkmorten 10:37, 8 May 2007 (UTC)
• Delete the Kosovo First Division does not seem to be a professional league officially recognized by UEFA. --Angelo 02:35, 8 May 2007 (UTC)
• Weak delete Kosovo Superliga appears to be a regional league, not a UEFA member league, and even if the league is fully professional, I don't think he plays at a high enough level to be considered notable. Ytny (talk) 03:52, 8 May 2007 (UTC)
• Comment Kosovo Superliga is not associated with Serbian Superliga (or the league system), there is no promotion nor Relegation between them (see United Nations Interim Administration Mission in Kosovo). But, with 2 million population, it is hardly to believe that it is a full-professional league.

Also, if this AfD pass, all Kosovar footballer without playing outside should be deleted. Matthew_hk tc 04:02, 8 May 2007 (UTC)

• Weak Keep player and topscorer of top division of de facto nation. Matthew_hk tc 04:02, 8 May 2007 (UTC)
• Strong Delete user:the_undertow said the biggest joke I have ever heard in wikipedia. There is no way to be even a semi-professional. Also plays in a de-facto national team. If internationals are accepted, they are only from the recognized national teams. Just to tell you, personally I am from Cyprus, where another league such Kosovo exist in Northern Cyprus. Northern Cyprus are by far on much lower level (worse than malta) and play so amature that if you watch their pitches and the level of football you will laugh and their level is lower than Cypriot Second Division. Imagine that Northen Cyprus football is better than Kosovo if you se how their fake national teams are doing. Also we had here a discussion for Wikipedia talk:Notability (people) about international players are notable and all we agreed that playing for non-recognized national team is not notability, --User:KRBN 02:35, 8 May 2007 (UTC)
• Relisted to get further consensus. Luigi30 (Taλk) 13:04, 15 May 2007 (UTC)
