This is a collection of discussions on the deletion of articles related to Nicaragua. It is one of many deletion lists coordinated by WikiProject Deletion sorting. Anyone can help maintain the list on this page.
- Adding a new AfD discussion
- Adding an AfD to this page does not add it to the main page at WP:AFD. Similarly, removing an AfD from this page does not remove it from the main page at WP:AFD. If you want to nominate an article for deletion, go through the process on that page before adding it to this page. To add a discussion to this page, follow these steps:
- Edit this page and add {{Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/PageName}} to the top of the list. Replace "PageName" with the relevant article name, i.e. the one on the existing AFD discussion. Also, indicate the title of the article in the edit summary as it is particularly helpful to add a link to the article in the edit summary. When you save the page, the discussion will automatically appear.
- You should also tag the AfD by adding {{subst:delsort|Nicaragua|~~~~}} to it, which will inform editors that it has been listed here. You may place this tag above or below the nomination statement or at the end of the discussion thread.
- Note that there are a few scripts and tools that can make this easier.
- Removing a closed AfD discussion
- Closed AfD discussions are automatically removed by a bot.
- Other types of discussions
- You can also add and remove links to other discussions (prod, CfD, TfD etc.) related to Nicaragua.
- Further information
- For further information see Wikipedia's deletion policy and WP:AfD for general information about Articles for Deletion, including a list of article deletions sorted by day of nomination.

The subject made a single appearance for the Nicaragua national football team a decade ago. I am unable to find enough coverage to meet WP:GNG; all I found were passing mentions in both English- and Spanish-language media. JTtheOG (talk) 20:17, 25 March 2024 (UTC)

- Delete - no evidence of notability. If sources are found please ping me. GiantSnowman 19:08, 26 March 2024 (UTC)
- Delete per above. Fails WP:GNG. Paul Vaurie (talk) 23:47, 26 March 2024 (UTC)
- Delete played only for semi-pro and/or amateur/academy teams. One international appearances doesn't supersede WP:SPORTBASIC. Anwegmann (talk) 16:31, 27 March 2024 (UTC)
- Question to Anwegmann. Are thee appearances sufficient? I'm not an expert, but playing one game (with no goals) is not sufficient to pass WP:FOOTY (see De minimis non curat lex), but three might be. Bearian (talk) 17:34, 27 March 2024 (UTC)
- Hey Bearian. There is some precedent here (and further discussed here) pointing to 20 international appearances as enough to supersede a lack of WP:SIGCOV and/or WP:SPORTBASIC. I'm all for using international appearances as a measure of notability, as I feel as though football articles suffer terribly from WP:BIAS. I've made that point clear several times, but Sequeira doesn't really reach any of thresholds I'm aware of, unfortunately. Anwegmann (talk) 19:03, 27 March 2024 (UTC)
