subject made notable by the event, the majority of people and media looking or reporting for this event will know it as the bad calls by Arnold Hunter (rather than the Europa League incident), and that it's worth having an article about him because he was made notable by this particular event. That being said, I think there's still verifiable and possibly notable information about the person beyond this particular incident; seeing the sources that some people have mentioned proves at least some level of significance beyond that event. I feel like we're seeing a lot of consensus that this person is notable enough for inclusion, though obviously nom disagrees still.
566:"Subjects notable only for one event" does surely not apply since he has been a FIFA referee for a five-year period. Participants in international football matches are regularly kept at AfD discussions, and the referee is on the field with the 22+ players (including playing substitutes). Vandalism does not preclude notability. The nominator challenging every !vote they disagree with is rather poor form, as well. 672:- the first two results, one of which is mentioned above are coverage of him in general, the first few pages show quite few international media outlets reporting specifically about this referee, not just about recent performances but also in general about his appointments to games at the highest level of club football. 492:
far before the event, so he's been discussed for other events besides this. And it's not particularly relevant that it didn't have an impact on the outcome - there's still significant coverage, regardless of whether it's "justified" in your view. On an unrelated, I recommend you strike out the third

states that blogs are largely unacceptable. Regardless, 99% of the sources that have been brought up here are simply match-ups listing all the officials. That isn't much proof of significance. That's information that needs to be announced because the teams themselves need to know that. No sources
750:
By the way, my opinion is that the incident itself is clearly notable - there's been a lot of commentary in the media about that. So I think it'd be worth a standalone article somewhere. The question is - what's notable? Is it the event, or the person? In this case, I think Arnold Hunter is the

OK, so, the Irish FA source is absolutely fine given the wealth of top level third party sourcing available in addition, so no issue there, it is perfectly useable to derive encyclopedic content. Secondly, you can't just say blog = unreliable, you need to provide evidence to support your claim,

make it that your arguments don't make a valid rationale to keep the article. In fact, you state "keep all or delete all" in your reasoning which means it is not simply a keep !vote. If you want to add those other articles to the nomination, be my guest. Having checked them, I cannot find any

There is no discussion whatsoever. This is just a list of referees appointed for all the matches. Such list are published ahead of every single match in the entire world. That doesn't many that every referee merits a wikipedia article.

Unremarkable person. Notability hasn't been demonstrated with sources and no claim of significance in the article. Moreover edit history shows that page seems to be only used for attempts to defame the person, which is a serious

In case you hadn't noticed, I'm in favor of keeping this kind of articles. Besides, Arnold Hunter is not an unremarkable person. His appointment was even discussed before the Olympiacos vs Anderlecht game took place.
176: 460:. Just how important is this match even in the history of the sport? What's more is that his "errors" didn't even have an impact on the outcome of the game since Anderlecht won and qualified for the next round 669: 129: 366: 720:

I'm not sure what results you're seeing, but I see a profile by his employer (not an independent source) and a blog (not a reliable source).
511:
Giving two links to the exact same source doesn't create multiple sources. And the Irish FA doesn't quite constitute independent coverage.

All from one country dealing with just one match he led. While you think that is enough, according to our notability guidelines it isn't.
363: 17: 102: 97: 539: 312: 650: 418:
because there are multiple independent reliable sources (sources from the same country are almost always considered independent).
