 * Keep He plays in the top Turkish league. the criteria states "Played one or more games in an amateur league considered, through lack of a professional league, the highest level of competition extant". CeeGee 05:47, 5 August 2017 (UTC)
 * Comment: The Turkish league is not listed here as being part of that list. So therefore the player fails notability. Sportsfan 1234 (talk) 14:27, 5 August 2017 (UTC)


 * Delete The league he played in does not grant automatic notability, and coverage of him is not high enough to pass GNG.John Pack Lambert (talk) 13:45, 7 August 2017 (UTC)
 * Delete Fails NHOCKEY, there is no impediment to him playing in a higher profile league if he was good enough so being in the top Turkish league is irrelevant. Needs to be some kind of effort to prove GNG, I can't find it.18abruce (talk) 14:29, 8 August 2017 (UTC)
 * Delete: No evidence the subject meets the GNG. As far as CeeGee's claim goes, that's not only completely inaccurate, the premise is flatout absurd; that would inevitably lead to beer leaguers in Peru or Nauru claiming presumptive notability.  Criterion #2 pertains to two specific periods in hockey history: the pre-professional days of the 19th century Canadian top leagues, and the Cold War-era "amateur" leagues of the Soviet Union and Czechoslovakia, where professional leagues were banned and the players not allowed to go elsewhere.  NHOCKEY does not, and never has, presumed that amateur players all around the world are notable.   Ravenswing   14:57, 8 August 2017 (UTC)
 * Delete Fails to meet NHOCKEY as they did not play in a league that meets the second criteria. Also I can find nothing that shows they meet GNG. -DJSasso (talk) 15:41, 8 August 2017 (UTC)
