Two players for FC Basel who both have less than 90 minutes of professional football under their belt. Consensus is that 1–2 games are not enough if the coverage of the player is merely statisticsl, per numerous AFDs here, here, here, here, here, here, here, here, here, here, here, here, here, here, here, here, here, here, here, here, here, here, here, here, here, here, here, here, here, here, here, here, here, here, here, here, here, here, here, here, here, here, here, here, here, here, here, here and here, and I could have gone on further.

• Delete both per nom, fail GNG which is far more important than scraping by on NFOOTBALL. Alternatively redirect to 1987–88 FC Basel season#Players. Giant Snowman 22:11, 8 November 2020 (UTC) reply
• Redirect I was thinking delete but after GS comments I feel there is actually some merit in the redirect. Govvy ( talk) 12:17, 9 November 2020 (UTC) reply
• keep Both of these articles are correct, do not deleat. Both players were professional at that time. All I am trying to do with my edits, is increase the coverage of Swiss football on Wiki. If the two correct articles are kept they could be improved by somebody who knows more information about the two players. If the two articles are deleated we will never find out.

• Comment @ Huligan0: Nothing wrong in your process or what you did, there is very little on the articles and the players. If you are able to find other information on them to improve the articles I could change my vote. You can always have them moved into your sandbox for now. You could always create a type of list article to show these players, I am sure there are a few more of them around to constitute a decent article. Govvy ( talk) 11:30, 12 November 2020 (UTC) reply

• Answer Thanks for the positive imput :-) As suggested, I have copied both pages into my sandbox. But as far as I can see from the imputs to date, there is not going to be a decision, because there are not all that many inputs so far. Again, I just suggest that we keep the articles just in case that there are going to be improvements made from other users who know or find further information. Again, all I am trying to do with my edits, is to increase the coverage of Swiss football, especially the history of FC Basel. As far as I am concerned, these two players have contributed to the history of the club. I wish everybody a very nice Sunday -- Huligan0 ( talk) 23:18, 15 November 2020 (UTC) reply

• Redirect both per GiantSnowman and Govvy - no evidence that either player garnered significant coverage to pass WP:GNG during their extraordinarily brief careers Spiderone 07:59, 12 November 2020 (UTC) reply
