Dane Dunlop

 * – ( View AfD View log )

As a player for an amateur hockey team, this athlete fails WP:NHOCKEY. VQuakr (talk) 16:21, 19 May 2011 (UTC)

Comment A web search of Dane Dunlop hockey comes up with a few independent sources with articles written about the kid. ,,. --Endlessdan (talk) 16:38, 19 May 2011 (UTC)
 * For some reason the NZ Herald article would not open for me, but the scoop article is a press release and the Lewisville Leader article is trivial (it dedicates one sentence to the subject, mentioning that he scored two goals in a scrimmage game). VQuakr (talk) 20:11, 24 May 2011 (UTC)

 * How did he do? - If he was accepted into the Dauphins, then I think he has notability as the first New Zealander to play in a major hockey league (even if its at junior level), with the refs given above plus a result ref satisfying WP:GNG. If he didn't make it, there's no story. dramatic (talk)
 * Comment Not "major league". He tried out for a Junior A team. TerminalPreppie (talk) 12:57, 26 May 2011 (UTC)

 * Comment - Agree with Gene93k. If he made it, that along with the sources ought to be sufficiently notable.  But since I did not find any references to him making it, I'm not sure he did, and so deletion would be appropriate. Rlendog (talk) 18:35, 24 May 2011 (UTC)
