The result was speedy keep. Withdrawn by nominator; apparently "head referee" is an important enough position to be inherently notable. (non-admin closure) power~enwiki ( π, ν ) 07:01, 8 March 2018 (UTC)

Notability is not inherited Shawn's father is a notable NFL referee, but that doesn't make him notable. Insufficient coverage to meet WP:GNG. power~enwiki ( π, ν ) 22:03, 7 March 2018 (UTC)

 * Keep we have articles on all the other NFL head referees, aside from Shawn Kemp. Kemp is the other new hire and will presumably have an article soon. Lepricavark (talk) 01:54, 8 March 2018 (UTC)
 * Keep Creating an article for Shawn Hochuli fixes a redlink in the template for the list of American football referees. As Lepricavark noted, all NFL-level referees have a fairly high profile, and Shawn Hochuli's page will eventually attract information regarding major games he's officiated, notable calls, and other useful information from prominent news sources for years to come.VinnyVideo (talk) 03:46, 8 March 2018 (UTC)
 * Keep seems to pass WP:GNG from the sources cited to me based on sources already in the article. Am I missing something?--Paul McDonald (talk) 04:43, 8 March 2018 (UTC)
 * Keep. Head referees receive extensive attention and Shawn is already getting that coverage; there is and will be more to include.  I do think the sentence about his brother's business should be deleted as non-germane advertising. --Arxiloxos (talk) 06:37, 8 March 2018 (UTC)
