Juan Rivera (infielder)

 * ( [ delete] ) – (View AfD) (View log)

Non-notable baseball player. Wizardman 17:30, 13 October 2008 (UTC)
 * Keep - article is very stubby but minor league is fully professional so keep iaw WP:ATHLETE. Springnuts (talk) 18:11, 13 October 2008 (UTC)
 * That's a misunderstanding of WP:ATHLETE. Minor leaguers are not inherently notable, they still need the appropriate accolades via third party sources. Wizardman  18:26, 13 October 2008 (UTC)
 * Class A baseball players get about $850 a month for 3.5 months. Total income of about 3K -- hard to call that a fully professional league.-- Fabrictramp |  talk to me  15:28, 14 October 2008 (UTC)
 * Well that's what the policy says - unless WP:IAR applies. By the edge of the basket?  I agree, but still in the balloon.  Springnuts (talk) 18:22, 14 October 2008 (UTC)


 * Delete. 21 year old Class A ballplayer, nothing that indicates notability. Rklear (talk) 20:49, 13 October 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete: as Wizardman notes, minor leaguers are no more inherently notable than college baseball players or any other non-major league and non-Olympic baseball players, and this article doesn't demonstrate notability for any other reasons. Nyttend (talk) 02:44, 14 October 2008 (UTC)

 * Delete - Has had a five year minor league career, hasn't yet risen above single-a. Without any secondary sources, this player hasn't achieved a level notability that would justify him having a page.  Hardnfast (talk) 21:26, 14 October 2008 (UTC)
 * There is a related discussion at []. Springnuts (talk) 18:06, 17 October 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete. No significant coverage from reliable sources.  —Wknight94 (talk) 22:26, 17 October 2008 (UTC)
