Levon Smith

Contested PROD. Concern was Non-notable footballer, no assertion or sources to show that this player has ever played football at fully professional level. Fails WP:ATHLETE. PROD was contested on the grounds that he has played in the Honduran top flight. Since this league is not confirmed as fully professional, this does not confer notability.

Comment I'm not familiar enough with football leagues to make a good call on this one, but I do note that most of his old teammates on C.D. Motagua have articles about them. However, I'm not sure this is definitive proof of notability, as many of them have also played in other, more notable leagues, and some of the other player articles there may be questionable as well.

Most of them are notable because they have played for the Honduras national football team and therefore meet WP:NSPORT. Since Levon Smith has not, it's particularly relevant here. Sir Sputnik (talk) 03:00, 5 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Fair enough. Nwlaw63 (talk) 04:05, 5 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Delete - He hasn't played in a Fully professional league and he doesn't have any senior international caps either therefore he fails WP:NFOOTBALL. IJA (talk) 10:34, 5 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Delete I'm sold. Nwlaw63 (talk) 01:44, 7 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Delete - Fails WP:NFOOTY as has not played senior international football nor played in a fully professional league. No indication that subject has garnered significant reliable coverage for any other achievements to satisfy GNG. Fenix down (talk) 11:50, 9 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]
