Subject has not met notability standards of WP:NHOCKEY or WP:GNG. Xajaso (talk) 22:05, 22 July 2011 (UTC)
 * I don't know much about hockey, but doesn't the article state that he played for Detroit Red Wings, which is a major NHL team, so that should suffice for WP:NHOCKEY? Rymatz (talk) 22:31, 22 July 2011 (UTC)
 * Delete as not notable. Honejsek played just two years of junior hockey in the Czech Republic and two years for Moose Jaw in the Western Hockey League. The article says he "tried out" for the Red Wings. NHL.com lists him among its "draft prospects," meaning he has the potential to play in the NHL in the not-too-distant future. If and when that happens, the article can be restored. — Michael J 03:12, 23 July 2011 (UTC)
 * In that case, delete per nom. Rymatz (talk) 12:30, 23 July 2011 (UTC)

 * Keep. Per WP:NHOCKEY, which says: "Ice hockey players are presumed notable if they played one or more games in an existing or defunct top professional league". Now I'm not an expert in hockey, but the article says Honejsek played for a team in the Czech Extraliga, which is "the highest-level ice hockey league in the Czech Republic". That meets the notability requirements right?--EdwardZhao (talk) 15:03, 29 July 2011 (UTC)
 * I don't believe he has played in the Extraliga yet. It looks like he is on the team for next season, but hasn't started playing yet. . Rlendog (talk) 21:02, 29 July 2011 (UTC)


 * Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so a clearer consensus may be reached.

 * Keep per User:Rlendog; he'll be notable in a couple of months, let's save somebody the trouble of recreating the article then.joe&bull;roet&bull;c 22:59, 30 July 2011 (UTC)
 * Suggestion based upon joe&bull;roe's comment. Someone familiar with the Czech Extraliga should store this article on a user subpage. If/when Honejsek plays there (or in the NHL or other major league), simply start a new article and paste it in. I do not follow the Extraliga or else I would volunteer. — Michael J 02:03, 1 August 2011 (UTC)


 * Comment EdwardZhao is wrong that he has played in the Czech Extraliga. He is currently signed by HC Zlin to try-out for the team next season, but has not yet played a game. To see the future one must look into a crystal ball. Xajaso (talk) 21:36, 3 August 2011 (UTC)
 * Delete - Hasn't played in the Extraliga yet. He probably will this season, as Zlín could use him.  Best bet is to save it on a subpage, as suggested. Captain Courageous (talk) 09:21, 5 August 2011 (UTC)
 * Delete per WP:CRYSTAL. A lot could happen between now and the next season. -DJSasso (talk) 00:06, 6 August 2011 (UTC)
 * Delete. If he plays in the Extraliga, or otherwise meets GNG or NHOCKEY, the article can be re-created.  Patken4 (talk) 00:20, 6 August 2011 (UTC)
