Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Paul Cairney
Clearly meets . That he doesn't meet  is not relevant. He is the sole subject of the BBC article http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/football/teams/p/partick_thistle/7502709.stm, and is also in about half the articles that come up http://news.google.ca/archivesearch?hl=en&tab=wn&ned=ca&q=%22Paul+Cairney%22 (yes, I was well aware that only about 30 to 40 of the articles related to him - but there was no further length to make any comment in the edit summary. It seemed to me that 30-40 articles were more than enough, but the goalposts seem to move on this. Actually, if you do a proper search the number of articles is 43 - http://news.google.ca/archivesearch?q=park+OR+thistle+%22paul+cairney%22&as_price=p0&ned=ca&sa=N. Those claiming that it isn't enough aren't happy when there is a dozen serious international articles, and hundreds of more minor sources
