Deletion of Tamding Tsering

Comment: I do agree that the player articles should be deleted, simply on the basis of failings to qualify via thlete, (As never playing a professional game at National level or International level.) However this does not stop an article about the team. In a single article the names can be listed and no player should have an article until they have played professional football

Comment: I haven't seen one irrational delete vote, all the votes cast for deletion have been on grounds due to the extradite Tibet footballers having failed to play at a high enough level of competition in football. As it goes, the extradite Tibet national team do not play in any recognised competitions, thus all player articles fail thlete on grounds, because either they haven't played in a high enough competition in club and the major factor, because the Tibet national team does not play any recognised competition football at all, which thus fails thlete yet again. This brings me to the next problem, the votes for keep are because there are some external links which has the players name, a name on a list is not notable, there must be at least a few citations, news links. More evidence than just a name on another website to even pass  which is clearly failing on every article up for AfD. Thus, why I vote delete earlier above

Comment: None of these players play club football at a fully professional level, so they fail all . None of these players are the subject of any meaningful third-party sources, so they all fail . None of these players have done anything of note, either inside or outside the world of football, so they all fail . None of these players' participation in the Tibet national football team cannot be verified, so they all fail  (the references provided only indicate that they were selected into the squad but not whether they played or not). I would also like to re-emphasise the points made by BigDunc and Toon above - this AfD is NOT part of a anti-Tibet / deletionist conspiracy. How about |assuming good faith

Comment: If these players had been selected from the whole Tibetan population to play for Tibet then I would accept that that would confer notability, but actually they are selected from the much smaller pool of Tibetan expatriates who are willing to act in defiance of the Chinese regime, i.e. who do not wish to return to Tibet and are not frightened of any possible consequences for their families. This means that they are in no way a team truly representative of their nation, so playing for this team does not get through . This may be unfair, but having a Wikipedia article isn't some sort of honour in recognition of courage or good intentions. Also no sources have been presented to indicate that any of the players may pass any other notability criteria

Comment: clear cut case of failing to meet , , , and probably a whole host of WP:something else as well! One of the most obvious delete of football-related articles since I've been with Wikipedia

Comment: These football players represent the Tibetan national squad in exile, a population of 6 million people (that is ). It's not their fault that political circumstances are the way they are. We can at least respect that Wikipedia does not support the wish of undemocratic regimes

Comment: per the article cited by JMundo, these players are part-timers and do not pass . Also, there is no evidence provided which shows they pass

Comment: Tamding Tsering. The rest I haven't looked at. Tsering is exactly the same as the Tenzin Tsering. None of the sources are particularly indepenent, all are trivial and none show he has actually played football. Fails Wp:N and . Any of the rest which clearly fail the same criteria, should also be deleted. Those which may be less clearcut may need further detailed discussion

Comment: The articles about the players from Tibet were nominated for deletion using a prod based on the deletion of Tenzin Tsering. After searching for sources to establish notability users have found two players so far that are notable beside the connection to the national team. The nomination says that the National Team of Tibet is not affiliated to FIFA. It's important to understand that this organization's decisions are heavily influenced by politics, http://www.playthegame.org/Knowledge%20Bank/Articles/Politics%20and%20Corruption%20in%20FIFA.aspx 1, http://www.powells.com/biblio?isbn=9780714649689 2,http://www.accessmylibrary.com/coms2/summary_0286-19667234_ITM 3, http://books.google.com/books?id=OiUoGQAACAAJ&dq 4: "The national teams of Tibet, Northern Cyprus and Gibraltar have seen their progress hampered by larger countries with a political interest in the territories." Our  guideline should not be based solely on the politics of FIFA and China. Keep the articles until we can judge them  on their own merits

Comment: The reason it provoked people to vote delete is because that's the correct outcome! I didn't ask them to vote delete, I asked them to come over and have a look for themselves!  The players clearly fail the |notability guidelines

Comment: these players fail every single one of our |notability |guidelines. We cannot verify that any of them have played for Tibet, which is not at the footballing standard of most FIFA-affiliated national teams. Even if this did not warrant deletion, it does not prevent any of them from playing for professional club side, in a fully professional league, and it is likely that if any of them were good enough, they would be picked up by one. There is no significant coverage from independent |reliable sources. See also: arguments made at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Tenzin Tsering
