WP:NHOCKEY is not the only route to notability. Does he pass WP:GNG? Rlendog (talk) 22:16, 23 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

For many people saying they don't meet NHOCKEY is shorthand for saying they don't meet GNG. If you think they do then make a case for it. -DJSasso (talk) 12:04, 1 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Except that a number of AfDs opened by this nominator have met GNG, and others at least have some coverage which if the nominator feels is insufficient should say why, in order to open an effective discussion on the issue. Rlendog (talk) 16:55, 1 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Again, that doesn't actually matter. If he feels it doesn't meet GNG all he has to say is that he doesn't think it does. It is up to those that want to keep it to say why it meets GNG. And yes he should do WP:BEFORE but that doesn't mean he has to comment other than to say he thinks it does or doesn't from that search. -DJSasso (talk) 11:42, 2 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Delete as this still suggests the needed solid independent notability as his own article, there's nothing convincing from the given information. SwisterTwister talk 05:24, 27 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Relisting comment: Of note is that per WP:NEXIST, topic notability is not based upon the state of sourcing in articles, which one of the !votes appears to be solely based upon. North America¹⁰⁰⁰ 00:11, 28 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Delete Obviously he currently fails WP:NHOCKEY. All the coverage about him looks to be routine sports coverage and two of the citations about this player are written about his brother. So I would say that he fails to pass WP:GNG. Deadman137 (talk) 04:22, 30 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Delete Fails to meet NHOCKEY and I can find no evidence of meeting GNG. -DJSasso (talk) 12:04, 1 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]
