Non-notable footballer, who has somehow moved from a top flight Nigerian team to a minor New Zealand team. Article claims two appearances for a team in the Nigerian top flight team, but I do not believe this to be true. a [http://www.google.co.uk/#hl=en&tbo=d&sclient=psy-ab&q=%22+Obina+Carrick+%22&oq=%22+Obina+Carrick+%22&gs_l=hp.3...448850.449720.2.450095.3.3.0.0.0.0.0.0..0.0.les%3B..0.0...1c.1.DhHuLl5vr-w&pbx=1&bav=on.2,or.r_gc.r_pw.r_qf.&fp=dc644044d522e5e5&bpcl=38897761&biw=1187&bih=814 google search] brings back only six hits, all for WP or mirrors. Seems to inherently fail WP:GNG regardless of the veracity of his appearances in a fully professional league. Lack of google hits suggests to me a fake player.

  • Delete - per nom. He has not received significant coverage or played in a fully pro league. This means that the article fails WP:GNG and WP:NSPORT. Sir Sputnik (talk) 15:18, 21 November 2012 (UTC)
  • Delete - fails WP:GNG and WP:NFOOTBALL. GiantSnowman 15:32, 21 November 2012 (UTC)
  • Delete This is a WP:HOAX, there is no such player. There is a Brazilian pro player named Obina, this is definitely not him. §FreeRangeFrog 21:05, 21 November 2012 (UTC)

  • Delete - article is about a footballer who hasn't played in a fully pro league or represented his country in at senior level, which means that the article fails WP:NFOOTY. Also fails WP:GNG due to lack of coverage in reliable sources. Mentoz86 (talk) 17:52, 24 November 2012 (UTC)
  • Delete. No evidence of notability. —chaos5023 (talk) 22:38, 28 November 2012 (UTC)
