 * Keep Completely disagree with your assessment, did you bother doing a WP:BEFORE? First result, he became a pilot., Shocking nomination, there are a number of those on a google search which easily passes WP:GNG, with some interviews. There are more sources for his footballing career. Govvy (talk) 09:11, 26 March 2024 (UTC)
 * Comment - judging by the PROD comment, this should be seen as a potential WP:BLPREQUESTDELETE as Richard Kell himself has requested deletion. Spiderone (Talk to Spider) 18:05, 26 March 2024 (UTC)

 * Keep per Govvy; over 100 professional appearances with coverage out there, clearly notable. GiantSnowman 19:09, 26 March 2024 (UTC)
 * Keep per Govvy, WP:BEFORE not thoroughly completed. Notable footballer. Paul Vaurie (talk) 23:46, 26 March 2024 (UTC)
 * Comment The request for removing this BLP came from an IP and it hasn't been verified. Also the IP showed irregular editing closer to vandalism, removing some cites that could be restored etc. So can it be even trusted? So the nominator requesting a change of nomination? Have you even been in contact with Richard Kell? I don't see any evidence of that. Govvy (talk) 08:25, 27 March 2024 (UTC)
 * See . You can ask a VRTS member for confirmation at the VRT noticeboard. Geoff &#124; Who, me? 12:59, 27 March 2024 (UTC)
 * Keep – Per above. Svartner (talk) 11:04, 27 March 2024 (UTC)
 * Keep Clearly has a career worthy of notability. I agree with Govvy in full. This is very obvious. Anwegmann (talk) 16:28, 27 March 2024 (UTC)
 * Keep - obviously will be kept, with 100+ Football League appearances, but with the BLPREQUESTDELETE, I've deleted the birthdate - which doesn't seem necessary to me. Nfitz (talk) 19:26, 29 March 2024 (UTC)
 * Keep - per WP:ATHLETE. Bhivuti45 (talk) 11:07, 30 March 2024 (UTC)
