Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Jordan Older (2nd nomination)
On several points.  First, the sources in the article are deeply flawed, per the nominator and others.  Second, the statement at  says anyone who appeared in a fully professional league is '''''generally''''' considered notable.  In short, it's not guaranteed.  And given how big soccer is in Brazil and South America, if this person really did play in Brazil's top division, finding sources shouldn't be this tough. Bluntly, this person fails , and that for me puts him on the wrong side of "generally".  Third, someone noted above that this player does not appear on any transfer list. Almost immediately, a new user comes up with a site that is ''user generated'' that shows one transfer - between small time local teams in San Diego, but nothing that indicates the article subject played any of the top teams claimed.  Seriously, the article claims this guy played in some pretty big leagues, but SPAs in this AFD are trying to pin notability on low-level PDL appearances?  Obvious red flag card. Fourth, it is claimed this person took part in training camp for the American World Cup team in 1994.  Again, if true, reliable sources should have been easily obtained. Fifth, it is fishy that stories that do mention Older tend to be user-submitted. Example: http://www.vcstar.com/news/2013/feb/06/jordan-older-helps-local-soccer-player-sign-europe/. Sixth, we have a professional soccer player who is also a physician who also runs a Film Festival of indeterminate importance who is also an actor (who was "featured" in some pretty big movies, yet has no IMDB profile yet). I'm left wondering if we will see stories tomorrow about how he is also a former astronaut who became a member of Seal Team Six.  All in all, this just looks to me like a whole lot of fiction and puffery.  And based on the first reply on http://www.bigsoccer.com/community/threads/did-jordan-older-ever-play-for-the-usa.484276/ this thread, may have been ongoing for some time
