[edit] Steven Hazarian

Steven Hazarian (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs) (delete) – (View log)

Contested PROD: Non-notable footballer, does not seem to have played professional football at any level. Article was included in a previous AfD of football bios that demonstrated no notability, most were improved this one wasn't. It still fails WP:ATHLETE and WP:FOOTYN English peasant 21:47, 28 March 2008 (UTC)

• This discussion has been included in WikiProject Football's list of association football related deletions. English peasant 21:52, 28 March 2008 (UTC)

• Keep Plays in a professional Premier League which allows Champions League Qualification. Needs references badly though. Porterjoh (talk) 22:08, 28 March 2008 (UTC)

I had a look and couldn't find any reference to the fact that he had actually played a game. In the case of Premier League or La Liga, players articles about players who have never actually played get deleted on a regular basis, I can't see why it should be any different for the much less notable Armenian Premier League.

• Delete I don't find any evidence that there is an Armenian footballer by this name. There is a Gevorg Ghazaryan, but I can't find any other Ghazaryans or Hazarians that match this one. Even if there is a real person by this name, if he had played in the Armenian Premier League, there should be sources for it (like there are for the other players on this team).

Oops, he exists (Stepan Ghazaryan) and has played for Banants ([1]). I'm a fool. Jogurney (talk) 17:07, 29 March 2008 (UTC)

• Keep, played for the Armenian national team. Stifle (talk) 23:23, 29 March 2008 (UTC)

• Now that the identity of the player has been established I would support the speedy closure of this AfD and a move to Stepan Ghazaryan. English peasant 23:49, 29 March 2008 (UTC)
