Trey Hearne

 * ( [ delete] ) – (View AfD) (View log)

Minor League Baseball player who has not played in any league higher than an AA (this year) and does not pass the drafted (with much consensus) WikiProject Baseball/Notability guidelines. There is debate within WP:Baseball about minor league players qualifying as "fully professional"

Good faith search (add quotation marks, using them in the external link messed up the code) brings up passing mention in articles about the team, no significant coverage of the subject, which means he fails the General notability guidelines. kelapstick (talk) 17:27, 16 April 2009 (UTC)

 * Comment: This individual appears to be pass WP:BIO. The above search for sources was only for the past month. This Google News Archive search returns many more results. Cunard (talk) 00:20, 17 April 2009 (UTC)
 * My mistake, the references need to be checked to make sure they are substantial coverage, not just a passing mention.--kelapstick (talk) 04:41, 17 April 2009 (UTC)


 * comment player does not pass Notability (sports) (unless MEX Mid-season all-star is being selected for an all-star game, which I don't think it is) which is a more lax guideline than the proposed notability guideline either.--kelapstick (talk) 15:45, 17 April 2009 (UTC)
 * I've added a ref to the MEX Mid-season all-star award line that indicates it is a selection for the all-star game.-- Fabrictramp |  talk to me  00:10, 18 April 2009 (UTC)


 * Keep. I've added several refs and a couple more awards. Also a link to an article about him in the Springfield News-Leader. Add to that the fact that some people consider the Mexican League to be the highest national league in Mexico (which would meet WikiProject Baseball/Notability guidelines), and I think we've got notability licked.-- Fabrictramp |  talk to me  00:10, 18 April 2009 (UTC)
 * Keep - As noted by Fabrictramp, he's received significant coverage from several reliable sources. (However, the Mexican League is a Class AAA minor league, so it's not a top-level national league in the same sense as Nippon Professional Baseball.) BRMo (talk) 04:26, 19 April 2009 (UTC)
