passes GNG. Isn't there a requirement for participants in a deletion-discussion to actually search for sources before claiming a topic fails GNG? http://www.bt.no/100Sport/fotball/eliteserien/Andreas-Vindheim-utfordrer-mannen-som-alltid-far-spille-414898_1.snd#.UxNgvBw-NFk This article from the regional newspaper, Bergens Tidende,  and http://www.nrk.no/hordaland/18-aring-vil-gi-saevarsson-kamp-1.11565354 this article from the national broadcaster NRK both addresses the topic directly and in detail. Vindheim has also received a lot of coverage in local papers when he http://www.firda.no/sporten/fotball/article7037374.ece signed his first professional contract, http://www.ba.no/sport/article6594291.ece when he was training with French club St. Etienne, http://www.ba.no/sport/article6627892.ece when he was wanted by the French club and http://www.ba.no/sport/fotball/brann/article7036882.ece when he rejected the French club offer  - but those shouldn't be counted towards notability.  is just a rule of thumb, and we all know that playing one match in a |fully pro league has no real impact on passing the general notability guideline, which is the most important notability guideline - but I must say that nominating an article for deletion when he is expected to pass NFOOTY in a couple of weeks is also bordeline y
