I note several articles of this sort are being created. Could someone please write in the article why they are notable? I am not from the native country of this play and have no way of knowing why this person is notable... Hence before I AFD, pls add notability to article. --~~
He is notable for the same reason that these 2,395 people are. Nick81aku 21:54, 3 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]
That's very nice. Can you put that in the article so other people might know that? --meatclerk 10:40, 4 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]
His notability is stated in the first sentence (and has been since the creation of the article): "Richard Petruska ... is a former National Basketball Association player." Nick81aku 20:54, 4 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Okay, noted. Can you guys (sports bio for wikipedia) get the bullet for Sportspeople/athletes/competitors cleaned up under Wikipedia:Notability (people) (and any other possible references), so independent editors can validate your work? -TIA --meatclerk 21:16, 4 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]
