Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Chris Lee (referee)
If referee/official is not substituted for player it would appear to be an oversight more than deliberate. If you look at the other sports, association football, rugby union and rugby league all specifically mention referees, while baseball and cricket use umpire and American football uses the term figure. At the Wikiproject rugby we assume that any referee that has reffed a professional game is notable (and don't have too much trouble finding sources to back it up). If nothing else the wording of  should probably be changed
