The result of the discussion was: keep. No consensus to delete, but not appropriate for mainspace in that state. I don't know anything about rugby so I'm not in a place to clean it up. Anyone who wants to tidy it and move it is welcome. &spades;PMC&spades; (talk) 23:42, 27 June 2017 (UTC)

Draft:Charlie Taylor (rugby union) v2


I don't believe college athletes generally qualify for pages. This was in mainspace but I moved it back to Draft. Lots of additions since that but nothing convincing. Legacypac (talk) 16:57, 17 June 2017 (UTC)

(copied from the talkpage) Hi, This was the last message I got... I don't believe college athletes generally qualify for pages. This was in mainspace but I moved it back to Draft. Lots of additions since that but nothing convincing. Legacypac (talk) 16:57, 17 June 2017 (UTC). Thats not right. He is not a college boy! Lol. Charlie Taylor plays for his country Australia. He has other team mates that are also on Wikipedia. I have just wasted all my time here trying to get this done, looking after young children as well and sitting up late at night etc to finish it and now it looks like its been deleted !!! What a waste of bloody time !! (not signed)


 * The page as not been deleted, only nominated for deletion. Perhaps I misunderstood what level he plays at. Legacypac (talk) 10:10, 19 June 2017 (UTC)

Hi, Legacypac. Didn't you read the draft on Charlie Taylor ????? He is not a College Boy as you have said. But NOW a Rugby Sevens Player that plays for his country !!! Australia !!!And will most likely representing Australia at the Commonwealth Games and Olympics and a worthy mention for Wikipedia, especially when he has some team mates mentioned in Wikipedia as well. I have sat up lat at nights to get this done and Its hard having the time with young children as well and now it looks like it could be deleted !!! If someone could fix it up, it would be appreciated, otherwise I have just wasted my time. Thanks — Preceding unsigned comment added by BOOF (talk • contribs) 10:56, 19 June 2017 (UTC)


 * Move back to mainspace and list at WP:AfD. In hindsight, Legacypac, this was a bad draftification, because the author is still here and objects.  I think it will probably be deleted at AfD, but not surely, because I see a lot of ghits for him, he played internationally.  Don't trust me though, I care little for athlete articles.  WP:AfD is a deletion pathway, but it is high profile, and it is a pathway that exposes the article to the most people who may be able and willing to help.  In draftspace, you will get no help, it will languish in the shadows, unseen, and eventually be procedurally abandoned as an abandoned draft.  To, my advice is to quickly identify existing articles that would benefit from mentions of Charlie Taylor, and if there are none, this is a very strong indicator that he is not Wikipedia-notable.  If eventually deleted, the best explanation I have seen is Alternative outlets.  --SmokeyJoe (talk) 00:34, 27 June 2017 (UTC)

Welcome to move this back to mainspace without objection from me. Legacypac (talk) 02:16, 27 June 2017 (UTC)
 * Withdraw. It was poorly developed when found the draft. Could maybe have been CSD'd but I wanted to give it a chance. Anyone is
