Jason Clark (ice hockey)

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

This article was recently up for an AfD and was closed as keep because some editors thought playing in the inline Roller Hockey International league granted automatic notability. A discussion at WT:NSPORTS concluded that it didn't. He lacks the significant independent coverage to meet WP:GNG and also fails to meet any of the notability criteria at WP:NHOCKEY.

 * Delete As the nominator said I see no reason to suggest that playing in the RHI meets any NSPORT criteria. Further, even if it did when challenge a person is only presumed notable under . As there is not GNG evidence to support Clark being notable for any kind of hockey playing - coverage being insignificant, local, or otherwise unsatisfactory to meet the requirements of GNG - this article should be deleted. Best, Barkeep49 (talk) 00:23, 4 October 2019 (UTC) In the interests of disclosure I participated in the linked discussion at WT:NSPORT and became aware of this AfD because of the notice placed there Barkeep49 (talk)
 * Delete: The subject fails the GNG, and there are no pertinent notability criteria granting him presumptive notability otherwise.   Ravenswing   03:10, 4 October 2019 (UTC)
 * Renomination note In case there are concerns this renomination was too soon, the previous AfD was closed by with the note: No prejudice against a second AfD being opened in the near future, if the discussion at Wikipedia_talk:Notability_(sports) results in a relevant change to the guideline. Both that talk page discussion as well as the since-closed Articles for deletion/Jason Clarke (ice hockey) ("Clarke" with an "e", also a roller hockey player) rejected the claim that a pro roller hockey player is presumed to be notable.—Bagumba (talk) 05:20, 4 October 2019 (UTC)
 * Delete Does not meet WP:GNG with multiple sources of significant converage from indepenent sources. Fails WP:NHOCKEY also. Consensus at the similar Articles for deletion/Jason Clarke (ice hockey) ("Clarke" with an "e") rejected that a professional athlete, regardless of their sport, was presumed to be notable. Only those mentioned explicitly under  shoud be presumed notable.—Bagumba (talk) 05:49, 4 October 2019 (UTC)
 * Delete Fails GNG, like other comments noted. KingofGangsters (talk) 02:16, 10 October 2019 (UTC)
