Dennis Guma

(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

Article is about a footballer who hasn't competed in a fully-pro league or in a senior international match. It also fails the general notability guideline as the player has received only routine local coverage - mostly related to his exploits with the youth national teams. The article makes an unverified claim that Mr. Guma has played for the senior national team, but I researched and found that he has only played in the CHAN tournament - which are not FIFA "A" international matches. He has been called up for two Africa Cup of Nations qualifiers this year, but has not made the matchday squad yet. Jogurney (talk) 20:10, 7 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Plays in top national league (don't know is it fully-pro or not, but it's top). But we need prooflink for his league stats. --Postoronniy-13 (talk) 02:13, 8 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]

WP:NFOOTY justifies notability only for footballers who have appeared in a fully-professional league, and i can't see Uganda in that list. Kosm1fent ^{Won't you talk to me?} 09:36, 8 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. Fails WP:GNG and WP:NFOOTBALL. I highly doubt that Uganda has a fully professional league. Argyle 4 Life^talk 06:29, 8 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Delete. Until he plays for his national football team, he is non-notable per WP:NFOOTY. Fails WP:GNG as well. Kosm1fent ^{Won't you talk to me?} 09:36, 8 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]
