The result was redirect to List of FC Basel players. This seems like the best decision, no real indication of GNG, but a plausible search term and the player is noted in the wider list article. If GNG can be shown at a later date I've no problem with someone being bold and undoing this edit. Fenix down ( talk) 21:43, 31 January 2021 (UTC)

1 game of football in 1914 is nowhere near enough when failing Wikipedia guidelines otherwise. Geschichte ( talk) 20:22, 24 January 2021 (UTC)

- Keep Dear friends, this kind of discussion about events that took place over 100 years ago is somewhat objectionable and disconcerting. Yes, one proven league match in two seasons is not very many, but then the season had only six league matches (it was , but then many more friendly games. In the text it states he also played friendly games. Friendly games also took time to organise and the travel to get there was not just sit in your car and drive there quickly. In most matches we cannot prove which players were involved, because the records no longer exist: FCB-Nordstern, LcdF-FCB, Sporting-FCB, Biel-FCB, FCB-Biel, YB-FCB in the season 1911–12. Plus Biel-FCB in the season 1914–15. This article about the player Walter Flück is a small part within the history of the club FC Basel and if deleted, would smaller my attempt to document the club's history. Please take this into account when voting for or against deletion. Please do not destroy the club's history just because a few 100 year old match records are no longer at hand. In adition to all this, a notification from you abou this AFD on my talk page would have been honorable. Geetings from Switzerland -- Huligan0 ( talk) 01:14, 25 January 2021 (UTC)
- Delete it is time we once and for all reject the absurdity of one game notability. John Pack Lambert ( talk) 21:03, 25 January 2021 (UTC)
- Statement I've spent an evening analysing the problem. My mistake was that I did not pay enough attention to the fact that many records from before World War I no longer exist or are incomplete. I was working backwards in time and by players with more playing seasons, a couple of missing matches did not have that much of an affect. I have now modified the article, removed that statistics and replaced them with a footnote, have also added slightly modified pros and a different ref. I will await your feedback before adding further pre-war players. Greetings -- Huligan0 ( talk) 20:13, 26 January 2021 (UTC)
