Contested PROD. Fails to meet notability guidelines as defined by
WP:NSOCCER. In my opinion, fails overarching
WP:GNG as all other listed references/citations are trivial mentions (e.g. signing with a team, leaving a team, etc.) which for me doesn't satisfy
WP:SIGCOV and many run in to
WP:COISOURCE issues (e.g. publicity by her teams/leagues). Upon a cursory search, I could only find
one,
maybe two, sources I would consider adding to the article (though did find other routine and first-person interviews, podcasts, etc.), whereas the PROD was removed with no reason ("rm prod - take to afd if desired").

Keep Passes
WP:GNG with the references already in the article, the articles listed above and Norwegian coverage such as
[1].

Comment - As I'm sure you're aware,
WP:SIGCOV states "Significant coverage is more than a trivial mention, but it does not need to be the main topic of the source material." The article you provided, like many others, barely mentions the subject or does so as part of
WP:ROUTINE coverage which still doesn't satisfy
WP:GNG in my opinion.

I don't really care about whether the article is kept, and that link probably wasn't the best considering I don't read Norwegian, but a Norwegian language search uncovered a number of possible
WP:GNG hits.

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.

Keep: Goalkeeper of the Year in Norway (edging out
Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Madalyn Schiffel) is a "significant honor" well into
WP:BIO#Sports personalities territory. There's an extensive interview
[2] and bits of coverage in Norwegian media
[3] which nudges
WP:GNG. Although I'm fully aware that someone will be along in a minute to call the first one a blog and pretend the second one is routine. That's invariably how these things go down when elite female players are involved! It's as sad and predictable as GiantSnowman's robotic "fails WP:GNG and WP:NFOOTBALL" vote.

Personal attacks have no place. (Is there an echo in here?) Don't bring the level of discourse down like that. Comment on the notability of the article subject, not on other editors, please. –

Keep – Plays for the top league in her country, Goalkeeper of the Year, works for me. –

Delete fails
WP:GNG (nothing more than routine coverage, some of it primary) and
WP:NFOOTBALL (never played in a FPL or senior international football. The Goalkeeper of the Year award is only for goalies in her league of 12 teams. Playing top division football = article keep is not a precedent that should be set.

Keep meets
WP:GNG with sources in article and above (I think
User:Dougal18 is mistaken when they claim nothing is more than routine - how is
this routine?)

The interview is sigcov but Everybody Soccer
focuses on goalkeepers mostly in the American game. Giannetti is only being interviewed because of her position and involvement in US college football. That interview shouldn't be enough for her article to survive AFD.
Dougal18 (

Much of the interview is about her play in Europe in addition to her play at the university level. In particular it talks about her win of Goalkeeper of the Year in the Norwegian
Toppserien - for which there's another
reference that I'll add to the article.
