Joe Green[edit]

This player never played at a professional level (external link in the article states "he did not break into the first team for the Canaries") and therefore does not satisfy the requirements of WP:BIO. Prod was contested (by an admin, no less) ChrisTheDude 12:25, 28 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Comment - the article says that he is a former professional footballer and played for Norwich City F.C. the article for which says that it is a professional team which played in The Football League 2007-08. You listed it on prod saying "This player has never played at a professional level" and there was no mention that you disputed the fact of the article, only that you found it not notable. --After Midnight ⁰⁰⁰¹ 12:35, 28 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Delete One of the external links in the article states that he never played for Norwich City and that he only ever appeared for their Youth team. Therefore, where "the article says that he is a former professional footballer and played for Norwich City F.C." it is factually incorrect as he has never played at a professional level and he is therefore not notable as he has never played in a fully professional league. ♦Tangerines BFC ♦·Talk 12:39, 28 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Delete - the player never played at a professional level, he does not meet notability requirements. The article appears to have been created by someone who knows him (see his userpage). Seems to me an obvious candidate for deletion.--EH74DK 13:22, 28 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]
