Corey P. Hughes

 * – ( View AfD View log )

A baseball player. He is just out of high school and hasn't played pro ball yet. He was drafted in the 42nd round. Fails WP:BASEBALL/N. Prod was contested. Bgwhite (talk) 21:58, 22 February 2012 (UTC)

 * Delete Not all baseball players are notable. This one certainly isn't. Clearly fails policy doktorb wordsdeeds 22:01, 22 February 2012 (UTC)
 * Delete Not a notable player. Should not be merged to Colorado Rockies minor league players because there should be a minimum threshold for that page. It should be there for top prospects and other minor league players with some coverage, but who just don't yet meet notability. This individual has no sourcing. – Muboshgu (talk) 22:12, 22 February 2012 (UTC)
 * HBWS, below, is right. This article is a hoax. I change to 'Speedy delete under G3. – Muboshgu (talk) 19:48, 24 February 2012 (UTC)
 * Don't Delete I really don't think you should delete this page. He seems relevent enough to warrent keeping a page. I would at least wait until after the 2021 MLB season to see how far he has moved up before we go crazy deleting pages. 23:12, 22 February 2012 (UTC) — Preceding unsigned comment added by 184.18.64.251 (talk • contribs)
 * Delete - I'm going to presume the above vote was a typo and the user in question doesn't want us to wait 9 years to delete stuff. Player in question currently plays for the Tri-city dust devils, a minor league team.  If/when he actually plays a game for the Rockies or acquires substantial coverage, then he will be notable, not before.  Grandmartin11 (talk) 23:21, 22 February 2012 (UTC)

 * Delete, hoax page. No "Corey Hughes" is listed on any of the rosters of the Rockies' affiliates at milb.com, and contrary to the article's claim, the Rockies' 42nd round pick in the 2011 draft was right-handed pitcher Jordan Johnson out of a high school in California. -Hit bull, win steak(Moo!) 21:06, 23 February 2012 (UTC)
 * Also, a trout-slap to everyone who commented in this AFD without bothering to take 30 seconds to verify whether or not the article's claims were even true. Keerist. -Hit bull, win steak(Moo!) 21:06, 23 February 2012 (UTC)


 * Comment I've opened up a sockpuppetry investigation relating to this hoax page and the other, Ryan Nawrocki. – Muboshgu (talk) 19:58, 24 February 2012 (UTC)
