Fails WP:NFOOTY (only a bench appearance for Dundee) and WP:GNG (non-significant and trivial coverage). I would suggest moving it to the draftspace as it is relatively well-developed, as to publish it once he becomes notable. Nehme₁₄₉₉ (talk) 20:21, 23 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Draftify, per nom. It's a decent well developed article, and can go back to mainspace once the subject makes a first-team appearance. In future, it might be worth suggesting such a course of action to the creator before going to AfD. cheers, Struway2 (talk) 11:31, 26 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]
- So it's perfectly fine to ask the creator to move the page to the draftspace? And then I would have to nominate the redirect to the draft for speedy deletion, right? Nehme₁₄₉₉ (talk) 17:16, 26 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  - It's fine to ask, so long as you explain why you're asking. And if they agree, you just tag the redirect for speedy deletion as per WP:CSD#R2. Cross-namespace redirects. cheers, Struway2 (talk) 17:54, 26 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]
    - Got it, thanks. Next time I'll keep this in mind. Nehme₁₄₉₉ (talk) 18:07, 26 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Draftify - it looks like the article was originally in draft, looking at the history. Since he is on the books of a top tier Scottish side, it's not unreasonable to believe that he might be notable in the near future but clearly does not meet GNG or NFOOTBALL yet Spiderone^{(Talk to Spider)} 16:04, 26 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Draftify - as suggested above seems fair and a good way forward. He has been on the bench this season, but has yet to make a first team appearance for Dundee United (or any other side), so does not meet NFOOTBALL yet. However he may well do in the future given his international record at age group levels and so then would be the time for an article. As this actually is a well put together article it would be fine for it to be used if and when he does meet GNG or NFOOTBALL. Dunarc (talk) 20:01, 28 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Draftify per above. Full-fledged deletion seems undescribed under the circumstances. LEPRICAVARK (talk) 18:05, 30 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]
