Individual fails WP:GNG and WP:BASE/N. Sources cited do not establish notability. – Muboshgu (talk) 03:56, 7 June 2016 (UTC)

He played minor league baseball in Germany and Israel? Also competed on Israel national team. He won a Gold Glove in the Israel Baseball League as the best defensive infielder. Many players from the league played professionally after the league folded. After retiring he founded a baseball academy in New York.

• Delete None of Basketballfan12's rationales meet any of the five very specific criteria set forth in WP:BASE/N. There is certainly not enough independent, significant coverage of the subject to meet WP:GNG. EricEnfermero (Talk) 05:23, 7 June 2016 (UTC)

Before the article is deleted, Nate Fish competed in the Israel Baseball League whose teams were coached by former Jewish MLB players ie. Art Shamsky, of the New York Mets, Ron Bloomberg of the New York Yankees,Major League Baseball's first designated hitter. The League Administration was led by Dan Duquette,Director of Operations who previously worked for the Boston Red Sox and Montreal Expos,currently works for the Baltimore Orioles.These individuals made an impact on the MLB on and off the field.

Do these count as reliable sources? They all describe the successful work Nate does of bringing baseball to Israel using the lessons of being an athlete and coach.These are some secondary sources which can be added.

I think they're all reliable sources, but I don't think they establish notability. Many of them are brief mentions in passing, Maccabi USA is a primary source. – Muboshgu (talk) 20:54, 7 June 2016 (UTC)

• Delete Fails WP:GNG with lack of significant coverage in multiple, independent, reliable sources. Unfortunately, non-independent sources and trivial mentions do not establish notability.—Bagumba (talk) 21:08, 7 June 2016 (UTC)
