  • Comment: I've found some, but so far they seem to be by the Australian and by the same journalist to boot. Given the user's screen name, I'm fairly sure that this is Colin Oxlade himself that created the page. If so, I'd like to remind him that Wikipedia covers everything... and he seems to be known for his failures more so than any successes. If he's hoping to promote himself, this is probably not the best place to go about doing that since so far the coverage I'm finding has been fairly negative.

  • Delete. All I can find are two articles (neither of which are very complimentary) by the same paper and same person- definitely not enough to show a depth of coverage. I don't imagine that he'd want to have an article that mentions him in a less than flattering light, as I would imagine that any other coverage out there would likely be along these same lines. I do want people to note that there is another Oxley out there that plays soccer in the UK, and that they're not the same person. Tokyogirl79 (。◕‿◕。)

  • Delete: A WP:SPA article on an individual whose coverage appears to be only that identified by User:Tokyogirl79 and looks routine rather than amounting to evidence of notability. AllyD (talk) 06:53, 23 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]
