Non-notable hockey player, fails WP:NHOCKEY, no evidence he passes the GNG. Played all but a handful of games in the low minors. Ravenswing 06:59, 8 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Delete Fails WP:NHOCKEY and I wasn't able to turn up any sources to meet GNG. -DJSasso (talk) 13:13, 8 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Keep or Redirect to 2001–02 NCAA Division I men's ice hockey season. Note: The sheer volume of AfD nominations by this editor (37-plus in the last three days alone) makes it impossible to fully research all of the articles to prove they meet GNG. Expecting any editor to properly research this large number of articles for GNG sources is not realistic or fair. Going straight to AfD with this many nominations, without first using PRODs or appropriate tagging, is disruptive. The nom should be reminded that deletion is a last resort, and per WP:BEFORE should only be used after other alternatives have been fully explored. Dolovis (talk) 05:28, 12 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Comment: As many as a hundred articles go to AfD every day, and no one expects any editor to research all of them on the spot; happily, since these are Wikipedia's articles, and do not "belong" to any one editor, there's no onus on any one person to do so. What is seriously disruptive is creating so many BLP articles without even a cursory attempt at proper sourcing. Perhaps, rather than creating yet more NN sub-stubs, you could turn your attention to that. Would you like, by the bye, to proffer a reason to Keep? Ravenswing 06:29, 12 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Delete - Fails WP:NHOCKEY and has not received enough coverage to pass GNG. --Hirolovesswords (talk) 06:14, 12 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Delete - Non-notable, retired hockey player. Does not pass GNG, less than 100 total professional games in low minor leagues. Not in favor of a redirect to his last season, that could potentially be a ridiculous number of players, and I would hate to see a trend towards starting the articles and then turning them into minimally helpful redirects.

Delete. Fails NHOCKEY and GNG. None of the leagues are considered a top professional league according to WP:NHOCKEY/LA. Patken4 (talk) 21:15, 14 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]
