 * Delete When one of the sources does not even mention the subject of the article (as far as I can tell) I have to wonder. In fact many of them appear to be about Emmett Ashford. This look like a hoax.Slatersteven (talk) 18:44, 22 March 2018 (UTC)
 * Comment? did you google Greg Attaway or look at his Facebook page or the pecos league page ?  — Preceding unsigned comment added by Catch burke (talk • contribs) 18:50, 22 March 2018 (UTC)
 * the reason one of the sources does not mention his name is because it was to confirm Ashford not Attaway ... — Preceding unsigned comment added by Catch burke (talk • contribs) 18:47, 22 March 2018 (UTC)
 * Hoping you will reconsider this hoaxstory as it shows even at 64 we do not give up on our dreams ... This is professional sports history ...
 * No one in any other "professional" sport has ever came close to this man's age to accomplish what he has, yet he did. And in season two he worked the championship games ...
 * A great human interest story in itself to say the least ...
 * Please edit to make it work if that will help as I am 100% for it !!!
 * thank you,

 * Facebook is not an RS, and I doubt the Pecos league page is enough to establish notability.Slatersteven (talk) 19:00, 22 March 2018 (UTC)
 * Ohh dear, here is a list of the official Pecos league Umpires, Attaway is not on the list.Slatersteven (talk) 19:04, 22 March 2018 (UTC)
 * And this article is a copy and paste from this, I though its use of past tense was a bit odd.Slatersteven (talk) 19:12, 22 March 2018 (UTC)

 * Delete An umpire in the Pecos League definitely doesn't meet WP:NBASE. He's nowhere near GNG either, and that's assuming this isn't a hoax. – Muboshgu (talk) 03:35, 23 March 2018 (UTC)
