Weak presumption of notability arises due to playing in one professional match 10 years ago, however, searches, including a Hungarian source search, and searches in conjunction with the clubs that he played for, did not yield any significant coverage or analysis of Mester. Coverage was largely trivial squad list mentions like Nemzeti Sport here. There is clear consensus that WP:GNG is far more important than any presumption of notability for playing in one professional match. Spiderone^{(Talk to Spider)} 17:29, 3 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Delete - there is longstanding consensus that scraping by on NFOOTBALL with one or two appearances is insufficient when GNG is failed so comprehensively, as is the case here. If sources are found please ping me. Giant Snowman 17:36, 3 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Delete Not notable, but the musician of the same name is. :) GhostDestroyer100 (talk) 16:47, 4 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]

That explains an awful lot! Certainly was an interesting BEFORE search. Spiderone^{(Talk to Spider)} 19:31, 4 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Yeah, unfortunately I ran into this many times: a non-notable person shares a name with a notable person, so many of the results are about the notable person. The unnotable person only appears in databases, listings and trivial mentions, or which is even worse, there is no coverage of that person whatsoever. Run into this so many times I lost count.
