 * Delete a non-notable basketball player.John Pack Lambert (talk) 01:29, 16 January 2018 (UTC)
 * Speedy Keep This guy played 15 years in the PBA, one of the most popular and competitive leagues in the world, and was an all-star for 3 straight years. With that background, our shortage of references is a problem with WP:BIAS. The references are there, but as an American, I had difficulty finding them at first. It is obvious this individual will pass WP:GNG based on the sources available. Here are some: top 3 center..., his arrest, he was one of five players so valuable that special rules were made restricting their trade.... If you go to the PhilStar.com website and search on Manny Victorino you'll get hundreds of articles, many of them in depth. Please look here... Phillipine Star Search page There are hundreds of articles, many in depth Really, this should be a snow keep. I know it's easy to miss the huge amount of information on these guys because it doesn't come up in google like it does with American subjects, but the subject of this article is impeccably notable.Jacona (talk) 12:52, 16 January 2018 (UTC)
 * Keep Clearly passes WP:GNG per the above sources. Nominator and delete !voter need to learn to do WP:BEFORE. This is getting out of hand. Smartyllama (talk) 17:44, 16 January 2018 (UTC)
 * Comment This is one of many articles related to the PBA nominated for mass deletion by the same nominator, almost all of which have significant coverage from a number of reliable sources. There is an indication of WP:BIAS and a failure to properly perform WP:BEFORE. I have contacted User:Sportsfan 1234 on his talk page, he has not responded to my comments but has continued to make deletion nominations. Articles known to be affected include: Articles for deletion/Simon Enciso, Articles for deletion/Hyram Bagatsing,Articles for deletion/Von Pessumal, Articles for deletion/Don Trollano, Articles for deletion/Teddy Alfarero,Articles for deletion/Ric-Ric Marata,Articles for deletion/Manny Victorino. There may be others, particularly some others may have been deleted, such as Articles for deletion/Prince Caperal,Edward Chongson,Articles for deletion/Anjo Caram,Articles for deletion/Norman Gonzales,Articles for deletion/Aries Dimaunahan,Articles for deletion/Dino Daa,Articles for deletion/Dennis Daa Jacona (talk) 21:40, 16 January 2018 (UTC)
 * Keep the nomination statement fails to address whether the article subject passes GNG, and in light of the evidence presented above by JaconaFrere, it seems reasonable to question whether the nominator even gave GNG any consideration at all. Lepricavark (talk) 16:41, 17 January 2018 (UTC)
 * Keep as has enough reliable sources coverage to pass WP:BASIC Atlantic306 (talk) 15:40, 19 January 2018 (UTC)
