James Troisi (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs) (delete) – (View log)

Contested PROD. Has not made an appearance in a fully professional league, so fails WP:ATHLETE. robwingfield «T•C» 19:14, 25 February 2008 (UTC)

  • This was posted by an IP on the talk page of this AfD rather than the page itself, I do not endorse the opinion but copy it here for the sake of completeness: ChrisTheDude (talk) 07:50, 26 February 2008 (UTC)
    • Please keep James Troisi's page. He's literally games away from a senior start. He's played in many friendlies, including in a recent trial with Roda JC. He also nearly made the final squad for Australia's World Cup Qualifier against Qatar, despite not yet having played first team football. Once again, first team football for this kid AND MORE, like Senior National Team selection, is just around the corner. Please stick with this entry as he's considered one of Australia's most promising talents who may impact for us as soon as Australia's next World Cup Qualifier against China on March 26th, though I suspect he may see first team football at club level, just before then ;) .
  • Delete Lacks notability. Subjective claims of athlete's future potential do not merit inclusion in Wikipedia. Dgf32 (talk) 15:49, 26 February 2008 (UTC)
  • Although he has recently been involved with the full national team and is listed as a first team member of the Newcastle squad he hasnt made a debut, so page can be deleted and restored when he does so. Nufc2006 (talk) 16:16, 26 February 2008 (UTC)
  • Weak Delete per nom, though I think this is probably one of those cases where turning a blind eye wouldn't harm Wikipedia. Still rules is rules. John Hayestalk 11:18, 28 February 2008 (UTC)
  • Delete Fails WP:FOOTY/Notability the article can be recreated if/when he makes his professional debut. English peasant 01:31, 1 March 2008 (UTC)
