Notability[edit]

Notes on sourcing. The single provided source at this time is a non-English boiler plate player profile that lists Mr Maman (ממן אדיר) as a member of the Youth League, the source of which is the IFA which includes such a blurb on essentially anyone who has played soccer in Israel since 1948.
Even the non-sourced claim of current employment places Maman in Liga Alef. Liga Alef is Israel's third tier soccer organization, similar to for example an A-Class minor league baseball team in the US. From what I've been able to gather, there are three things that put Maman into inclusion territory:
the UEFA U19 Championships in 2009 (as a FIFA event), during which time he spent 122 seconds on the field in two matches (http://www.football.com/en-us/adir-maman/),
maybe a U18 friendly match with Germany in which he is explicitly referenced in a Getty images blurb: http://www.gettyimages.com/detail/news-photo/adir-maman-of-israel-and-marvin-pourie-of-germany-go-up-for-news-photo/84036368
and one source on Maman through a Hebrew-language reliable source here, really the only one of these that could seriously be used as a citation (which I have done): http://www.one.co.il/Article/11-12/1,1,0,0/201591.html While I speak Hebrew, its not my first language and I am not an Israeli. Maybe someone with more information on this subject has access to sources I don't - as it stands this is a *very* iffy and stubbish BLP. Jay Dubya (talk) 18:05, 25 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]
