Deletion of Jim Chapman (footballer)

Comment: Though I am responsible for this RfA, my ''personal'' preference would be to keep this article, and similar articles of borderline notability. True, he might not quite cut it as far as our guidelines go, but here is an athlete/coach who has received a very good amount of coverage by major news sources, including the BBC. When most of us change jobs, it isn't covered by the largest media organization in the world. How much more notable can you get!? :) I propose that this is a good time to invoke , as I feel that all things considered, this article benefits Wikipedia, rather than hindering it

Comment: I've been looking for information on him, and learned that before his coaching days he was a player, and played ''at least'' as high as the Scottish Second Division. In http://www.eveningtimes.co.uk/sport/display.var.1290121.0.my_team_jim_chapman.php this interview he talks about scoring the goal that won the second division championship. I don't know much at all about Scottish football, but assuming that they follow the promotion/relegation format that most leagues around the world follow, then his team would have been promoted the following season. If he remained with the club and played in the Scottish Premier League, he would pass . He might even be notable just for playing in the second division - certainly a player who plays in the the Football League Championship is notable. Hopefully someone more familiar with Scottish football can chime in here

Comment: It's semi-pro, and certainly falls short of .  Beyond that, I agree that this article fails to assert the notability of the subject
