 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Non-notable amateur racing driver - he races in the Formula 5000 revival series, which is a form of Historic motorsport. Editors who have removed prod have confused it with the defunct professional Formula 5000 series. Fails WP:NSPORT and WP:GNG. Drdisque (talk) 05:34, 9 May 2014 (UTC)
 * Comment I removed the prod because Mishae removed your first prod and you prodded again. You also prodded a high school recently which is inherently notable (see WP:HIGHSCHOOL). Per rules of WP:PROD you cannot reprod and have to AfD the article. Valoem   talk   contrib  15:14, 9 May 2014 (UTC)
 * Also, Sports Car Illustrated, Sports Car Digest and Vintage Racecar Journal are an RS. If the articles have plenty of reliable sources, you don't prod them, you live them as is.--Mishae (talk) 17:09, 9 May 2014 (UTC)
 * I understand. However, in the Sports Car Digest article, Blackwood is only mentioned in one paragraph because he crashed. In the Vintage Racecar article he is mentioned once, in a listing of finishers, and in the Sports Car Illustrated article he is again mentioned, once, because he crashed. In my opinion, this is trivial covereage. -Drdisque (talk) 18:51, 11 May 2014 (UTC)
