Tommy Rooney: Dropped into non-league after that and untraceable since 2008, when he was 24.  Sources so far are four lines on joining Macclesfield, a passing mention in a list of releases, and then a load of dead link transfer stories from a specialist non-league website.  A Google search overwhelmingly gives results for a Gaelic football journalist, which when you consider the difference in popularity between soccer and Gaelic football, is not really a sign that this is a notable footballer.  Unknown Temptation ( talk ) 15:24, 16 October 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] In a passing mention, Tommy Rooney was playing Sunday League with relatives by the age of 26.  [6] This man passes the defunct WP:NFOOTY but clearly not WP:GNG .

Giant Snowman 20:54, 17 October 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Delete Rooney's claim to notability is fleeting at best (a few minutes playing time in the EFL and FA Cup) and there is no enduring or sustained coverage of him to sufficiently demonstrate notability.  -- Malcolmxl5 ( talk ) 11:04, 19 October 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Keep , plenty of coverage and some of the sources on page already satisfy GNG.-- Ortizesp ( talk ) 19:19, 19 October 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Everyone's entitled to their opinions but apart from his minutes at Macclesfield all we have are transfer reports from a specialist non-league website and one local newspaper report in Leigh.  We have no proof he was ever any more than a trialist at TNS so the best he went on to was the Conference North (6th tier), and we have no evidence for his life past the age of 24 (except the Sunday League ref I found).  This article wouldn't even exist if he had any other surname.  Unknown Temptation ( talk ) 20:47, 19 October 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Delete : BLP, fails GNG and NBIO.  Sources in article are routine news and databases, BEFORE showed the same, nothing that meets WP:IS, WP:RS with WP:SIGCOV addressing the subject directly and indpeth.  WP:BLP requires strong sourcing, this article fails.  // Timothy :: talk 18:17, 23 October 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] The above discussion is preserved as an archive of the debate.
