 * Speedy keep There are alot of nominations for deletions for articles on rugby league footballers where there first name isn't known, I think they should all be nominated in the same AfD. ビッグツリ64 (talk) 21:52, 26 December 2021 (UTC) Block evasion  Spiderone (Talk to Spider) 15:00, 28 December 2021 (UTC)
 * @ビッグツリ64, I suspect the nominator wished to avoid a WP:TRAINWRECK situation. Sammi Brie  (she/her • t • c) 23:13, 26 December 2021 (UTC)
 * @User:Sammi Brie that makes sense but I think that it isn't necessary and not only clogs up the afd page but also makes it harder to actually make comments about the nominations, most of which are very similar to each other anyway. ビッグツリ64 (talk) 23:45, 26 December 2021 (UTC) Block evasion  Spiderone (Talk to Spider) 15:00, 28 December 2021 (UTC)
 * No, it doesn't make it hard to comment on the subject. What makes it harder is when someone derails the discussion. Geschichte (talk) 09:33, 27 December 2021 (UTC)

 * Delete Wikipedia needs to be based on independent sources. We do not keep articles sourced only to the website of the team someone played for. For the record the sourcing here is totally different than in the case of the other first name not known rugby player deletion nomination I have seen, so I see very good reason to have them as seperate discussions. I have also seen too many large scale nominations of this type become a trainwreck that forces them to be redone to see any reason to do things that way.John Pack Lambert (talk) 14:23, 28 December 2021 (UTC)
 * Delete As far as I can see totally fails GNG. I have not checked everyone of these routine mentions but I cannot find a single mention for the subject playing first grade for Eastern Suburbs. Seems to be mostly second grade.  Aoziwe (talk) 11:46, 29 December 2021 (UTC)
 * Delete per nom fails WP:GNG.Pharaoh of the Wizards (talk) 10:46, 2 January 2022 (UTC)
 * Delete. His lack of notability is such that, 15 years after the article's creation, nobody has yet been able to determine his first name, the position he played, date/year of birth, date/year of death, how many games he appeared in, or anything else other than that he reportedly played during the 1911 season for the "Eastern Suburbs" team. Fails GNG for lack of SIGCOV in multiple, reliable, independent sources. Cbl62 (talk) 13:56, 2 January 2022 (UTC)
