He has played professionally and is therefore notable. Mattythewhite 15:06, 3 September 2007 (UTC)Reply

That's not right and you know it, because I've already explained it to you. Read WP:NOTE carefully.--Rambutan (talk) 15:30, 3 September 2007 (UTC)Reply

Please don't try and make me out to be a liar. Please read WP:BIO. It specifically states the criteria for notability of people for athletes as "Competitors who have played in a fully professional league, or a competition of equivalent standing in a non-league sport such as swimming or tennis". Mattythewhite 15:36, 3 September 2007 (UTC)Reply

...all that plus WP:NOTE's criteria.--Rambutan (talk) 15:37, 3 September 2007 (UTC)Reply

Okay then. But I am very much against the deletion of content simply because its not "well enough referenced" and trivial reasons such as that. Mattythewhite 15:43, 3 September 2007 (UTC)Reply

But that's policy.--Rambutan (talk) 15:46, 3 September 2007 (UTC)Reply

I'm sorry, but saying because "its policy" or "its precedent" is hardly the right thing to do and fair thing to do. You could at least give the article time to be expanded rather than just get rid of it. Mattythewhite 15:48, 3 September 2007 (UTC)Reply

Am I bovvered? But seriously, it must be sourced. It's not up to you and it's not up to me, it is the rule.--Rambutan (talk) 15:55, 3 September 2007 (UTC)Reply

Fair enough. My opinion is articles, like this, should at least be given a chance. Anyway, this article is now "definetley notable" I suppose and this discussion is hardly relevant to this article now. Mattythewhite 16:01, 3 September 2007 (UTC)Reply
