Ron McKelvey

 * – (View AfD) (View log)

Non-notable former con artist. One incident does not make a person notable. &mdash;  Hello Annyong  (say whaaat?!) 15:15, 7 February 2008 (UTC)
 * Addendum: I'd also point out that, as per WP:BLP1E, when "a person is associated with only one event, such as for a particular relatively unimportant crime," a separate bio page may not be needed. &mdash;  Hello Annyong  (say whaaat?!) 01:40, 9 February 2008 (UTC)


 * This is notable because its the last time a player fradulently played Div I NCAA football that we know of. This was a huge story in college football in late '95 and early '96. SI and many other publications did stories on it, but I haven't located any links for them yet. OddibeKerfeld (talk) 15:24, 7 February 2008 (UTC)


 * Comment - No opinion on the notability yet, but I've added a few possible sources to the talk page. If it is kept, it probably should be moved to Ron Weaver. --Onorem♠Dil 15:36, 7 February 2008 (UTC)


 * Thanks for the help. I think Ron Weaver would be good, but I think most folks still remember the story as Ron McKelvey, because he played the entire season under that name. OddibeKerfeld (talk) 15:54, 7 February 2008 (UTC)
 * Comment: Perhaps, but lots of sources still doesn't make him notable enough. There's still the WP:BLP1E component of bio articles. &mdash;  Hello Annyong  (say whaaat?!) 01:40, 9 February 2008 (UTC)


 * Keep The info checks out, and it got significant coverage at the time. Should be a redirect to Ron Weaver, as suggested by OddibeKerfeld. Delicious carbuncle (talk) 15:40, 7 February 2008 (UTC)
 * Keep I vote keep, It is significant and Is not hurting anything. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 168.216.71.129 (talk) 18:16, 7 February 2008 (UTC)

 * Keep:I remember this. It was a big story. EdRooney (talk) 13:13, 11 February 2008 (UTC)
