No evidence found of any notability. Barely anything for "Alex" Cox-Ashwood, a few more hits for "Alexandre" Cox-Ashwood, but nothing substantial from independent reliable sources, just databases. Fram (talk) 16:33, 2 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Delete fails WP:GNG due to lack of significant coverage. Was unable to find anything significant on Google. Found couple of trivial mentions on Newspapers.com. Alvaldi (talk) 18:20, 2 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
I can also support draftifying the article per BeanieFan11 and GiantSnowman. Alvaldi (talk) 17:46, 3 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
~~Delete~~, found [1] but nothing else. BeanieFan11 (talk) 19:52, 2 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
- Considering he is an active pro player who just made his debut, I would support draftify-ing the article as he may become notable in the future. BeanieFan11 (talk) 20:07, 2 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Draftify - young player who has just made their professional debut. Give time for the media to catch up with that fact. Giant Snowman 20:28, 2 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Keep passes GNG, good amount of coverage in his university career and active player.--Ortizesp (talk) 20:29, 2 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
- @Ortizesp: Could you show me some of that "good amount of coverage"? BeanieFan11 (talk) 20:31, 2 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  - I'd say these are a start: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5.--Ortizesp (talk) 20:39, 2 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    - The thing is only OurSportsCentral and the Electric City Sports articles are independent, and the latter is only Anderson men's soccer senior Alexandre Cox-Ashwood and volleyball senior Regan Duty have been honored for their impressive weeks on the field and court last week. They were named the Jimmy John’s Male and Female Athletes of the Week on Tuesday. In addition, Cox-Ashwood was named the South Atlantic Conference Astroturf Men’s Soccer Offensive Player of the Week ... Cox-Ashwood led the Trojans with 5 goals and 1 assist in the team’s two wins over Mount Olive and Lander. He recorded a hat trick in the Lander game. His 5 goals currently lead the conference. (with the rest being quotes, so probably not SIGCOV). So I'd say he still fails GNG as multiple pieces of SIGCOV are required. BeanieFan11 (talk) 21:02, 2 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    - [2][3] are primary sources, [4] is a database listing. [5] and [6] do cover him a bit but its a bit of a stretch to call this significant coverage, in my books at least. Alvaldi (talk) 21:04, 2 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
      - Oursportscentral is a "news release", i.e. not an independent source but a press release. So thzt one doesn't count towards notability either... Fram (talk) 21:07, 2 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
        Indeed, its word-for-word the same as this [7] Alvaldi (talk) 21:14, 2 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Draftify per reasons of those in favour of this above Spiderone^{(Talk to Spider)} 17:46, 8 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
Relisting comment: No clear consensus, some coverage clearly exists, needs further discussion to develop consensus as to whether the coverage is sufficiently significant.
Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, Fenix down (talk) 21:41, 9 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Delete - Article about non-notable footballer which fails GNG; can't find any online SIGCOV. Jogurney (talk) 20:29, 12 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
