[edit] Kevin Cooper (striker)

Kevin Cooper (striker) (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs) – (View log)

By the article's own admission, the subject is a semi-professional footballer, and there is no evidence that he ever played fully professional football, thus failing WP:BIO. PeeJay 20:13, 27 October 2007 (UTC)

  • Delete Article says he played for Charlton and Brentford, but neither club has ever had a Kevin Cooper play for their first team (Charlton in fact, have never had a player with the surname Cooper at all). All other clubs listed are not professional therefore fails WP:BIO ChrisTheDude 20:37, 27 October 2007 (UTC)

  • Delete per nom There is a different Kevin Cooper at [[1]] which confuses things. Springnuts 22:42, 27 October 2007 (UTC)
    • Yes, the other Kevin Cooper already has an article at Kevin Cooper (midfielder). Coincidentally, the two were born within 10 days of each other, and both have played for a team from Wimbledon (Kevin Cooper (midfielder) played for Wimbledon F.C., while Kevin Cooper (striker) played for A.F.C. Wimbledon). - PeeJay 22:47, 27 October 2007 (UTC)
