A very similar case to Büşra Demirörs. No inherent notability from career to date and no ongoing career either so we need to look at WP:GNG alone.

The only sources cited are the Turkish Football Federation profile page and TSG 05 Bamberg's website, neither of which provide significant coverage nor are they independent of the subject. Google searches turn up no useful results at all and a Turkish source search only yields Wikipedia mirrors, stats websites and results about namesakes. No evidence at all of WP:GNG actually being satisfied. Spiderone (Talk to Spider) 10:47, 4 May 2021 (UTC) reply

  • Contextual awareness 101: This athlete played in the top league in Turkey where an estimated 90% of the population speaks Turkish. Where are you based Spiderone? Hmlarson ( talk) 20:50, 7 May 2021 (UTC) reply
    • Do you have any significant coverage from reliable Turkish sources about Akıl? Nehme 1499 21:03, 7 May 2021 (UTC) reply
There are many, many Turkish female footballers that pass GNG but I can't see any evidence that Akıl is in that category. I am more than happy to be proved wrong. Spiderone (Talk to Spider) 22:16, 7 May 2021 (UTC) reply
