Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Eirik Johansen
Reading the comments from people who want to delete this article, it occurs to me that the notability threshold seems to be perceived significantly more restrictively for a football player than it would have for any other bio, sports bios included, that I can remember having seen at AfD. Johansen has had two regular articles about him only in two of Norway's biggest newspapers. By that alone he should qualify per  notwithstanding any topic-specific notability requirements. __
