Mohd Zaidi Napiah deletion 

I'd like to query your deletion of Mohd Zaidi Napiah. I see the consensus was for deletion - but I feel this was contrary to policy. 

The nominator seems to reason that the page be deleted purely because he or she doesn't know anything about the subject and can't find/hasn't looked for any sources. There is no question that the subject passes WP:ATHLETE since the single source describes him as one of a professional club's most important players. A cursory search of google throws up plenty of mentions on forums etc. of his exploits in the Malaysian league.

Although these are not reliable sources, it makes a nonsense of the speculative idea that he was registered to a series of leading clubs but never took to the field.

Would it not be better to restore the page, tag it and wait for an editor who actually knows something about the subject area?
