Ben Wilson (ice hockey)

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Appears to fail WP:GNG with only a few WP:ROUTINE sources about signings and such. Fails WP:NHOCKEY by not playing in a high enough league for long enough to presume notability and has won no individual awards that I can find. Yosemiter (talk) 15:22, 12 September 2017 (UTC)
 * Delete: The product of an editor who ultimately received a community ban on new article creation for many hundreds of NN article to bump up his page creation count. As with the vast majority of these creations, the subject here is a journeyman hockey player in the mid-minors with an undistinguished career and no awards, noteworthy or otherwise.

 * Delete per nom. Behn Wilson with an h is a notable hockey player, but not Ben Wilson. Rlendog (talk) 13:41, 16 September 2017 (UTC)
 * Delete does not meet notability guidelines for hockey players.John Pack Lambert (talk) 03:01, 17 September 2017 (UTC)
 * Delete. The leagues he's played in are all ones where notability is not automatic for all players, but requires a higher burden such as playing a certain specific high number of games in that league or winning pre-eminent honours — but he meets neither of those higher standards, and there's no alternative evidence that he would pass WP:GNG on the strength of the media coverage.
