  • Keep so a guy who could play for the national team isnt important enough? i think maybe you should get out and see the world rather than asking peoples pages to be deleted because theyre not important enough for you —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Johnnybhoy22 (talk • contribs) 00:23, 12 February 2007 (UTC).
  • Delete. He could play for Australia as indeed could I theoretically. Given that he plays for a suburban indoor soccer team however, I doubt that the Australian selectors are paying him much attention. It is also interesting that the article claims that he plays for teams in Melbourne and Logan City in Western Brisbane. Capitalistroadster 02:30, 12 February 2007 (UTC)
  • he is on our indor roster, but hasnt played because he has gone back to brisbane, and logan city is south east! not west, and btw SRI LANKA has been interested in him not australia can you read? —Preceding unsigned comment added by Johnnybhoy22 (talk • contribs)
Comment: Most people here can read. I suggest you take a read over the official Wikipedia policy, Wikipedia:No personal attacks. There's no need to go insulting anyone simply because they may disagree with your idea of notability. -- Longhair\talk 03:12, 12 February 2007 (UTC)
  • KEEP i agree, it shouldnt be personal, but if this player has goal scoring records, and is being scouted for an international squad, then it must be of some importance, and therefor relevant to people interested in his progress —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 58.164.134.249 (talk) 03:21, 12 February 2007 (UTC). — 58.164.134.249 (talk • contribs) has made few or no other edits outside this topic.
  • The person should first read then get his facts right before saying the page should be deleted, and i dont think merely asking someone if they can read is a personal attack thanks all the same —Preceding unsigned comment added by Johnnybhoy22 (talk • contribs)
  • Comment: Calling other editors "nerds" in other AfD discussions [1] could be considered a personal attack. My comments of above, whilst not referring to your worst offence of a personal attack, is your warning to stop with the personal comments, or be stopped. Comment on content, not the contributor. I've also left some pointers on your talk page to the official policies of Wikipedia so you don't fall foul of the rules. Now back to the article at hand, do you have any evidence of this players' achievements and/or claims of notability from a source outside of your organisation? As it stands, the article is currently without any external references at all, so we're merely taking your word for everything the article says. Wikipedia functions on verifiability and some sources may help to back up the article's claims. - Longhair\talk 03:51, 12 February 2007 (UTC)
  • sorry ill stop it then anyway back to the topic, currently Keiths Football Club doesnt have a website which i can give reference to but it will soon be up and running with all stats and player profile, but if you really want a reference you can contact Jason Sorenstam, club coaching director and confirm all keiths details Johnnybhoy22 04:46, 12 February 2007 (UTC)
  • Delete Non-notable social player - being top scorer in a minor suburban indoor league does not satisfy WP:BIO. I find it very hard to believe that an international team would be scouting in such a league, and "you need to contact some *bloke in Australia" is not a valid citation.... ChrisTheDude 08:21, 12 February 2007 (UTC)
  • Actually he is not top scorer in a minor suburban league mate, he is on the roster but hasnt played for the indoor team, he is top scorer in Queensland state league 3(equivilent to Coca Cola League 2) which is a top league and also is top scorer for another team aswell, please read the article propely before asking for it to be deleted —Preceding unsigned comment added by Johnnybhoy22 (talk • contribs)
  • Delete - totally non-notable. Orderinchaos78 08:43, 12 February 2007 (UTC)
  • [2] theres park ridge fc for you, and obviously u havnt looked hard enough for queenslands league —Preceding unsigned comment added by Johnnybhoy22 (talk • contribs)
    • I never said the club didn't exist, I said I could find no confirmation of the league existing. The club's own website doesn't mention it and neither does the website of Football Queensland.... ChrisTheDude 09:11, 12 February 2007 (UTC)
      • After some further searching I've found that Park Ridge apparently play in the Brisbane District League (not QLD State League) but aren't in the top three divisions (which is all the website currently shows fixtures for), so presumably they play in one of the lower divisions, which doesn't strike me as a "top league", personally, and certainly not the equivalent of England's national fully professional League Two, as claimed above. I'd also hazard a guess that the Brisbane League itself isn't a full-time professional league, which means that Mr Murray doesn't meet the requirements of WP:BIO....
