Contested PROD. Concern was that the Article fails WP:GNG and WP:NFOOTY. Article about player who has not played in a Tier-1 international match. PROD was contested based on a claim that he had played in the Romanian top flight, which would of course be sufficient to meet WP:NFOOTY, except that the claim is not supported by reliable sources.

• Delete - fails WP:GNG and WP:NFOOTBALL. GiantSnowman 13:29, 19 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  The three sources mentioned above state that Bănuță has played in Liga I. Why do you say that it fails WP:NFOOTBALL? Razvan Socol (talk) 19:30, 19 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

• Keep - meets WP:GNG appearing for CSM Ceahlăul Piatra Neamț in the Romanian Liga I in the 2007–08 Liga I season. This league is listed as fully-professional in WP:FPL. Here's a boxscore that showed he played December 14, 2007. Nfitz (talk) 21:01, 19 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep - per above keep votes. At first glance I thought this article failed WP:NFOOTY but after looking at the discussion here I realized I was wrong. Seems the article barely meets the requirements and therefore should be kept. Inter&anthro (talk) 03:36, 20 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep - As I said in the nomination, playing in Liga I is sufficient to meet WP:NFOOTY. Now that it's been confirmed in reliable sources, I have no further concerns about this article. Sir Sputnik (talk) 04:43, 20 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep - He does seem to meet the notability criteria for WP:NFOOTY. CAPTAIN RAJU (✉) 19:58, 25 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]
