Fails WP:GNG and lacks WP:SIGCOV. Sources such as [1] and [2] are trivial. Sportsfan 1234 ( talk) 21:26, 31 August 2022 (UTC)
- Note: This discussion has been included in the deletion sorting lists for the following topics: Sportspeople, Football, and Nicaragua. Sportsfan 1234 ( talk) 21:26, 31 August 2022 (UTC)
- Keep international footballer and goalscorer in his local league, some coverage here 1, 2, 3.-- Ortizesp ( talk) 22:25, 31 August 2022 (UTC)
- Keep - Per @ Ortizesp:. Besides the sources Ortizesp found, I found 4, 5, 6, 7 , 8, and 9 among many many other sources. Significant young figure in Nicaraguan football with an ongoing pro and international career who has played for two of the top 4 Nicaraguan teams (Real Estelí and Walter Ferretti) and helped the latter win their only ever Nicaraguan cup in 2021. Article needs improvement, not deletion. Thanks, Das osmnezz ( talk) 05:39, 1 September 2022 (UTC)
- Delete, coverage cited above does not amount to a WP:GNG pass, being a collective of interviews, passing mentions and unreliable sources, none of which contribute to notability. Devonian Wombat ( talk) 11:57, 1 September 2022 (UTC)
- Delete (weakish) per Devonian's source analysis. I couldn't find much myself, either. The subject appears to have received some coverage, but not enough for notability. I did find [3], which I do believe counts towards the GNG. However, more sources need to be found for notability to be demonstrated. — Danre98( talk^ contribs) 23:58, 1 September 2022 (UTC)

- Keep per sources above which show notability. Giant Snowman 12:57, 2 September 2022 (UTC)
- Delete Lacks enough significant coverage to pass WP:GNG. While the source from User:Danre98 is decent (the rest is not), GNG requires multiple significant sources. Being an international, professional or having an ongoing career is irrelevant in AfD. If somebody finds additional significant sources, I am more than happy to change my !vote. Alvaldi ( talk) 15:23, 3 September 2022 (UTC)
- Delete. The source from Danre98 is indeed the best of the lot, but I don't think it has enough independent secondary commentary on him to count towards GNG. Among the non-quoted material, there's too much content that's just restating what he said rather than providing analysis. JoelleJay ( talk) 02:12, 4 September 2022 (UTC)
- Delete owing to a lack of multiple in-depth high quality sources with which to write an article. Fails GNG. Please don't waste people's time by putting forward Facebook and YouTube as sources, that's being disruptive. -- Malcolmxl5 ( talk) 21:08, 7 September 2022 (UTC)
Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, Liz Read! Talk! 21:29, 7 September 2022 (UTC)
- Delete I think one source is not enough, thus it violates WP:GNG.-- Tysska ( talk) 14:22, 8 September 2022 (UTC)
- Delete per nom and comments above - sources around are not good enough to confer notability. -- Angelo ( talk) 23:41, 8 September 2022 (UTC)
