Welcome to Wikipedia. Constructive contributions are appreciated, but, in this edit to Mahip Riar, you removed Articles for deletion notices from articles or removed other people's comments in Articles for deletion debates. This makes it difficult to establish consensus. If you oppose the deletion of an article, please comment at the respective page instead. Thank you. Dat Guy^Talk_Contribs 13:05, 17 August 2016 (UTC)

Re: Mahip Riar

Language of sources is not the issue here, the subject of the article is. In order to have an article on Wikipedia a subject must meet certain criteria called notability. For footballers there are two relevant notability guidelines. First is the football specific notability guideline, which says a footballer is notable if they've played for their country's national team or in one of the fully pro leagues listed here. Note that the Bosnian top flight is listed under Top level leagues which are not fully professional. The other is the general notability guideline, which says that a subject is notable if they've received significant coverage in reliable sources. Significant coverage does not include routine sports coverage like the profiles cited. I hope that clears things up a little.

On an unrelated, I'd also like to go over some talk page etiquette. Please post new sections to the bottom of talk pages. Doing so conveniently keeps things ordered chronologically. Using the "new section" tab at the top of most talk pages will do this for you automatically. And please sign your comments. Typing four tildes ~~~~ after your comments will display your username and a timestamp, making it easier to tell who said what and when. Happy editing. Sir Sputnik (talk) 23:22, 17 August 2016 (UTC)
