Article fails WP:GNG. This article was only just deleted earlier this month and nothing has changed since then. Simione001 (talk) 02:31, 24 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Keep: How is this failing GNG? Multiple sources provided showing significant coverage of the player both within Australia and recently as a professional player in the United States (USL2 is a fully-professional league). Has scored and won in a Grand Final in Australia in a nationally recognized competition. Nath1991 (talk) 02:38, 24 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I direct you to the following page Wikipedia:Notability, it fails WP:GNG because none of the references in the article address the subject directly or in any great detail. Simione001 (talk) 02:47, 24 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
None? [1]https://www.oursportscentral.com/services/releases/tormenta-fc-adds-jackson-khoury-to-2023-usl-league-one-roster/n-5920481] - Whole article dedicated to the signing of the player. 3 mentions, and an entire paragraph dedicated to his performance [2]https://www.wjcl.com/article/tormenta-fc-defeats-triumph-fc-in-inaugural-peach-states-derby/43546224] He's mentioned directly in all the sources that have provided match reports on significant events that he's been involved in. Media outlets don't write up detailed articles on an entire player scoring goals, short of them doing something ridiculous like Archie Thompson scoring 13 goals v American Samoa back in 2001.

The first is routine transfer news and the second is a match report. This isn't sufficient. Simione001 (talk) 04:01, 24 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
To add further, how does this not meet GNG after sources make several mentions of the player, yet James Bayliss (just one of many stubb articles), which only has a singular source (no other than the clubs own match report, where he gets a brief 5 word mention) does? I notice in the editing history that you created the article, but that wasn't deemed "not notable" by yourself? I'm not suggesting this player is Cristiano Ronaldo, but he's certainly mentioned enough to warrant notability for his recent history in a professional national competition. Based off your reasoning, it's clearly one rule for yourself, another for everybody else. Nath1991 (talk) 04:07, 24 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Yes however that article was created at a time when WP:NFOOTBALL was sufficient. This is no longer the case. Regardless this nomination is not about James Bayliss so not relevant to this discussion. Simione001 (talk) 04:47, 24 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
