Procedural nomination; proposed for deletion by GiantSnowman, but deletion challenged by Abhinabha. As I speak neither Dutch nor Farsi, and know virtually nothing about Dutch football, I don't consider myself competent to judge the validity of sources and whether there's enough coverage to constitute notability. Procedural AFD nom, so I abstain. ‑ Iridescent 09:27, 4 June 2016 (UTC)

- Keep. Passes WP:NFOOTY. The editor who challenged the proposed deletion said at Talk:Zabih Etemadi that they "included a link to a well-known soccer website where Etemadi's profile can be seen". And so they did: at Voetbal.com, the Dutch-language edition of Worldfootball.net, which shows ten appearances in the Eerste Divisie for Cambuur. The Eerste Divisie is listed as a fully professional league within the meaning of WP:NFOOTY, and 10 appearances in it isn't a bare scrape in an obscure league. The 2003 Friesch Dagblad piece about subject and his then 16-year-old brother, which was in the article at the time it was prodded, opens with "Zabih is de meest bekende van de twee voetballende broertjes; hij stond dit seizoen al enkele malen in de basiself van Cambuur Leeuwarden", which means "Zabih is the better known of the two footballing brothers; this season he's been in Cambuur's starting eleven several times". And even from just the sources in the article, we can see that media attention is ongoing. cheers, Struway2 ( talk) 08:21, 11 June 2016 (UTC)
