 * – ( View AfD View log | edits since nomination)

Violates the general criteria of WP:NOTDATABASE due to being an article that replicates a database entry. In addition, it fails WP:GNG and WP:SPORTSCRIT.

Previously nominated in a group nomination which was closed as no consensus on procedural grounds. BilledMammal (talk) 05:18, 18 July 2022 (UTC)

 * Delete no one has presented any sources that would constitute passing GNG. That is an absolute requirement for articles.John Pack Lambert (talk) 20:18, 20 July 2022 (UTC)
 * User:Johnpacklambert is exactly right. WP:SPORTBASIC was amended earlier this year to say "Sports biographies must include at least one reference to a source providing significant coverage of the subject, excluding database sources." No such SIGCOV has been presented here. Cbl62 (talk) 20:49, 20 July 2022 (UTC)


 * Delete - I also failed to find sources. If good sources are identified, please ping me. BennyOnTheLoose (talk) 12:24, 21 July 2022 (UTC)
 * Delete does not meet criterias for WP:GNG at least Kazanstyle (talk) 09:07, 22 July 2022 (UTC)
