This is a complex AfD because this article was actually hijacked in Aug 2012. Previously, this was about an Argentine international rugby union player. The footballer of this name has only played at a very low level in Argentina and doesn't seem to meet WP:GNG. Searches in Google, ProQuest, DDG etc. only return results relating to rugby union.

If both the rugby player and the footballer are non-notable, then we simply delete this article. If the rugby player is notable but the footballer isn't, then please revert the hijacking. If both are notable then please can an admin do some sort of splitting of the histories so we have Alejandro Abadie (footballer) with relevant edit history and Alejandro Abadie (rugby union) with relevant edit history? Sorry if AfD is not the best venue but I feel that notability is questionable here so AfD was what I thought would be best. Spiderone^{(Talk to Spider)} 10:12, 4 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Delete - neither the rugby player or the footballer appear notable. Giant Snowman 12:27, 4 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Delete per nom. Alos, oddly, the article lede states 'Alejandro Abadie is currently playing for Douglas Haig' but the Douglas Haig article doesn't list him. Best Alexandermcnabb (talk) 14:43, 4 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Revert back to the rugby union player article The rugby union player was an Argentine international, Italian wikipedia has some more information on him, and a very simple search that I've just done has resulted in what could possibly be coverage. Rugbyfan22 (talk) 09:09, 5 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

There appears to be reasonable coverage on the rugby player, along with the sourcing on Italian wiki, there's this interview and this interview that I've found in a basic google search of his name, it appears he's certainly notable, and coverage is very similar to other Argentine few cap international rugby union players from the era.

Revert to rugby union player and weak keep - The high-jacked article about the footballer fails WP:GNG, while the previous version about the rugby union player may satisfy GNG through the La Nacion article and a few other Spanish-language sources that are close to in-depth. It's not clear to me, but I might not be looking in the right places. Jogurney (talk) 14:27, 6 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
