Deletion of Ryo Miyaichi

Comment: to all those editors voting "keep". There are currently eight references on the article - two bog-standard player profiles, and six near-identical (they probably all came from the same news agency) basic reports about his transfer. Can you honestly say that this is the "significant coverage" that our |notability guidelines require

Comment: Fails  and . I've only heard of this person because he signed for Arsenal recently, which does not warrant an article. Dozens of young players are signed by this club every year and don't have articles. Miyaichi is no different

Comment: I agree that he doesn't meet the criteria of NFOOTY.  But let's make sure we understand one of the fundamentals of the WP:ATHLETE criteria; it is not that they establish whether someone is notable or not, but whether someone can be ''presumed'' to be notable or it can be ''presumed'' that not enough |reliable sources exist to satisfy the GNG.  Someone who satisfies the GNG is notable whether or not he topped out with a 5-minute substitute stint in Conference North.  So the question is this: if he's indeed received substantive nationwide press in Japan, then he passes the GNG.  If no such sources exist, then he neither passes the GNG nor meets the NFOOTY criteria
