The subject, a Peruvian women's footballer, has not received enough coverage to meet WP:GNG. All I was able to find were interviews ( 1, 2, 3, 4, etc.) and coverage from when an advertising panel fell on her during a post-match interview ( 1, 2, etc.), and everything else is trivial mentions.

- Delete - no evidence of notability. If sources are found please ping me. Giant Snowman 16:40, 7 January 2024 (UTC)
- Keep - interviews are fine as an indication of notability; what it's poor for, is sourcing - but that's not what AFD is about. Nfitz ( talk) 00:57, 14 January 2024 (UTC)
- Delete. As has been noted hundreds of times by now, interviews only contribute to GNG if there is secondary independent SIGCOV of the subject by the author. Nothing derived from what the interviewee says counts toward notability. The above sources in fact aren't even interviews in the sense we use them: they are routine match reports that happen to quote Vega's press statements. Nowhere close to SIGCOV, nor is the brief bump of primary news coverage from the incident noted above.

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
Relisting comment: I closed this AFD as "Delete" but didn't notice at the time that the majority of participation occurred in a few hours before I closed the discussion. I was asked to relist this discussion and I think that's a reasonable request so that's what I'm doing.

- Delete. I agree with what JoelleJay says. Notability means significant coverage in reliable secondary sources that are independent of the subject. Interviews are neither secondary sources (they are primary sources) and not independent sources. Ms Vega scoring a goal, her opinion on a match, particularly that an opposing goal was offside, and being hit by an advertising board does not amount to notability and I see nothing better. -- Malcolmxl5 ( talk) 00:41, 23 January 2024 (UTC)
