Patrick Sieloff

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Non-notable hockey player, fails WP:NHOCKEY, no evidence he passes the GNG. One of a long string of NN stubs thrown up by article creator, without apparent attempt to provide sources attesting to notability, as BLP articles require.   Ravenswing   09:48, 17 January 2014 (UTC)
 * Delete A search did not turn up any sources to meet GNG and he also fails NHOCKEY. -DJSasso (talk) 13:58, 17 January 2014 (UTC)
 * Keep. It wasn't too hard to find sources on him.  He has moderately extensive coverage between his World Junior play, turning pro, being the youngest player to suit up in the AHL this season, and then almost dying from an ingrown hair. Canada Hky (talk) 18:50, 17 January 2014 (UTC)


 * Link Return from injury
 * Link Return from injury 2
 * Link Missing this year's World Junior
 * LinkTurning Pro
 * Link Hockey News Profile about decision to go to Windsor
 * Link Profile from his time in Windsor
 * Link Turning pro
 * Link Youngest player in the AHL
 * A couple of those would fail WP:ROUTINE and almost all of them (save the hockey news) would fails WP:GEOSCOPE in that they are local articles about a local player/prospect. And the world junior one has a single sentence about him so not in depth by any means. And one is a blog. -DJSasso (talk) 19:58, 17 January 2014 (UTC)

 * Neutral. I'm biased on this one since he is a Flames prospect.  He might not quite be notable yet, but I do expect he will be soon.  (Crystal balling, obviously). Resolute 01:13, 22 January 2014 (UTC)
 * Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so a clearer consensus may be reached.

 * Delete per nom and 's analysis of the sources provided. May meet notability requirements within the short or medium terms, but it is premature. Hwy43 (talk) 20:00, 24 January 2014 (UTC)
 * Userfy Not yet notable, but chances are good he will be soon.204.126.132.231 (talk) 20:18, 24 January 2014 (UTC)
 * Comment: I've no objection to userfying the article.   Ravenswing   21:05, 24 January 2014 (UTC)


 * Keep. Still.  The guideline linked to explain away the local sources refers to the coverage of an event, not a person. A FACTIVA database search reveals 358 separate articles.  There are articles (profiles) within days of each other from papers in two different provinces (2012-12-04 Windsor Star US Gives Spitfire Sieloff a shot at world junior spot; 2012-12-05 Calgary Herald Flames prospect Sieloff a terror on Spitfires blueline).  A Canadian Press Article on nhl.com (comes up in Factiva, but this one is linkable) (http://www.nhl.com/ice/news.htm?id=647216) .  Canada Hky (talk) 00:18, 25 January 2014 (UTC)
 * Anyone willing to host if it's userfied? --BDD (talk) 19:12, 4 February 2014 (UTC)
 * I will. He's a Calgary Flames prospect, which is my team/project.  Wouldn't be hard to update and restore if it is decided to bring it back at some point. Resolute 23:11, 4 February 2014 (UTC)
 * In fairness though, this seems a fair no consensus result to me. I could just as easily take CanadaHky's links and expand the live article. Resolute 23:41, 4 February 2014 (UTC)
 * Keep - per Canada Hky's sources. No point userfying when a useful article can already be developed. -- Hockeyben (talk - contribs) 02:06, 5 February 2014 (UTC)
