Eric Pfligler
NN hockey player, fails sportspeople guidelines set in WP:BIO, precedent set with discussion at Articles for deletion/Jovica Zelenbaba Tony fanta 00:07, 3 November 2006 (UTC)

I am also nominating the following related pages because they are also former/current Saginaw Spirit players that do not meet WP:BIO and have not been drafted by the NHL or show any notability (although being drafted isn't an instant factor of notability either, I just want to bundle those of similar ilk, others can check the list later):

 * Delete all per prior AfD. ~ trialsanderrors 01:56, 3 November 2006 (UTC)
 * Comment I don't think so many nominations at once is a good idea. I think smaller bunches would be a better idea.  FrozenPurpleCube 02:01, 3 November 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete All I don't like that fact that so many articles are being deleted but the few that I looked at seem to suggest that they will never be more then stubs. Sure some of these people could do something famous (like play in the NHL), but if they never make it past the OHL level then the articles on them are going to be left as a stub. Greba 02:08, 3 November 2006 (UTC)
 * I checked them all and every single one is {Name of player} ({birthdate} in {birthplace}) is an ice hockey player. / OHL Priority Selection {team} {round} {year} / {table}. ~ trialsanderrors 02:55, 3 November 2006 (UTC)
 * Obvious delete of all I didn't check every one, but I trust trialsanderrors, who did. None of them pass WP:BIO, especially considering the notability of sportspeople, so this one is quite clear-cut. -- Kicking222 03:48, 3 November 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete all per nom and above. shotwell 04:03, 3 November 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete all per above. -- Kf4bdy talk contribs 07:53, 3 November 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete all per above. MER-C 08:17, 3 November 2006 (UTC)
 * Having checked a statistically significant 10% of these articles, and seeing as they fail WP:BIO, I vote to delete, delete, delete, delete, delete, delete, delete, delete, delete, delete, delete, delete, delete, delete, delete, delete, delete, delete, delete, delete, delete, delete, delete, delete, delete, delete, delete, delete, delete, delete, delete, delete, delete, delete, delete, delete, delete, delete, delete, delete, delete, delete, delete, delete, delete, delete, delete, delete, delete, delete and keep. No, wait, delete that one too. Vizjim 10:20, 3 November 2006 (UTC)
 * Comment I don't like the fact we are voting for that many articles at a time. After checking 20 of them, they seem to all be stubs. -- lucasbfr talk 21:46, 3 November 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete all per above arguments.UberCryxic 22:31, 3 November 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete all. I trust trialsanderrors that they're all identical, and given that, I don't have a problem with the giant block nomination. -- NORTH talk 00:27, 4 November 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete all per nominator. The career paths of these guys and the articles' contents are so close that I would not be too concerned about this mass deletion. Ohconfucius 03:59, 6 November 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep all because nominator lies about some of them. Geoff Platt, for example, is listed as playing in the National Hockey League in two different seasons, last year and this year. Clearly meets WP:BIO criterion:  "Sportspeople/athletes/competitors who have played in a fully professional league".   Gene Nygaard 19:10, 6 November 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep Geoff Platt, Delete the rest. Mistakes do happen, that's why we review suggestions and take actions based on those reviews.  Assume good faith.  Vegaswikian 22:56, 6 November 2006 (UTC)
 * Comment There's nothing to state that Platt played in these leagues in the article, so deleting the stub won't cause too much fuss. Suggest Gene Nygaard considers apologising for the utterly unjustified accusation of deliberate deceit. Vizjim 09:52, 7 November 2006 (UTC)
