college player, div III. No referenced claims to accomplishment. In fact, only news report at all (save a bit of local news coverage of games he played in) is a puff piece tangential to his basketball career about a workout program from a local paper.

I know this man personally, and I even emailed him to check on a few matters before I updated it. Everything on that page is 100% true. Please can you help me to make the page OK by your guys standards, I am not good with computers but I have spent a long time making the edits on this page. Please can you help?

 * Delete: I'm afraid, Basketball Fan 23, the article can't be made OK by our standards, because our standards don't qualify Division III players for articles. The only other claim of notability is the purported inclusion in "Who's Who Amongst Students in American Universities and Colleges," but that confers no notability ... otherwise, I'd qualify for a Wikipedia article myself, having been named (along with something like 11,000 others) to an edition in the 70s.

 * Delete -- Unless those in the US, tell me that he is notable, I cannot believe that he is not NN. This is about notability, not accuracy.  Peterkingiron (talk) 19:51, 7 July 2013 (UTC)
