Speedy Keep per WP:SK#3. This BLP is appallingly sourced but it is not unsourced, and it clearly meets WP:GNG. sst ✈ 13:10, 25 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Speedy keep per SSTflyer. I'm sorry to say this but did the nominator do the search engine test before nominating the article for deletion? Israel's Son 16:39, 25 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Obvious keep. See WP:BEFORE.--RioHondo (talk) 02:51, 26 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Keep. "Unreferenced" is not a reason to take an article to AfD, per WP:BEFORE, as RioHondo points out. Rathfelder does not understand this. Very frustrating that he doesn't look for a source himself. Jared Preston (talk) 06:34, 26 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Keep Obviously meets GNG as a 2-time MVP of the PBA and one of the top players in the league's history. Somebody add some references, it's unforgivable for an article of this length not to have any. The nominator is probably just trying to make a point. Rikster2 (talk) 00:39, 27 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Keep. I just recently added reliable sources. It now has nine references. --Jojit (talk) 03:03, 27 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]
