Fails WP:GNG and lacks WP:SIGCOV. Sources on the page are trivial, and sources such as [1] are also trivial. Sportsfan 1234 (talk) 22:43, 27 August 2022 (UTC)

- Delete - no evidence of notability. If sources are found please ping me. GiantSnowman 09:54, 28 August 2022 (UTC)
- Keep - Clearly significant figure in Anguillan football and probably one of few Anguillan players ever to play outside England. I look at the other Sports WikiProjects (or any WikiProject) and they don't nearly have an article deleted per day, let alone 30. By the time I finish writing this, another 30 will probably be deleted. Article may need improvement, but definitely not deletion. Thanks, Das osmnezz (talk) 15:14, 28 August 2022 (UTC)
- Delete - agree with nom's analysis of sources. I also did specifically check [2] just in case, but got no results. As for Das's keep, I don't see any evidence that Varian is a clearly significant figure in Anguillan football in the sources (and yeah, there's structural issues with AfD but that's not what I'm here to discuss). —Danre98(talk^contribs) 22:32, 30 August 2022 (UTC)
- Delete - ProQuest and Google News have passing mentions only. The "Clearly significant figure in Anguillan football" comment by Das is totally unsubstantiated. Spiderone(Talk to Spider) 07:39, 3 September 2022 (UTC)
