The subject of the article has requested deletion in the page history. I think if there isn't clear consensus to keep, we should respect his wishes per WP:BLPREQUESTDELETE. Sro23 (talk) 15:09, 4 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Delete He is a low-level hockey player, no reason to keep the article.John Pack Lambert (talk) 15:42, 4 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]
~~Delete~~ - Doesn't meet NHOCKEY, no need to disrespect his request to delete. Rlendog (talk) 13:20, 5 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]

changed to Keep - DJSasso and Ravenswing are correct. He does meet WP:NHOCKEY #4 for being an British League 1st team all star. If we get a deletion request from the subject per proper procecdure I'd be inclined to honor the request though, since his notability is rather marginal.

OTRS signs off on it, I wouldn't oppose. Ravenswing 19:27, 9 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Delete regardless of any requests, the subject's lack of notability is a sufficient cause for deletion. Lepricavark (talk) 19:16, 6 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Keep: Sorry to demur, but the subject does meet NHOCKEY; he was a first-team all-star in the British league, and led the Italian league in goals in another season, which fulfills criterion #4; it's probable that sources meeting the GNG exist from both. I am entirely unimpressed with a deletion request from a "Faulk11," a SPA who is not the article creator and has neither presented bonafides nor went through the OTRS process.

Keep Ravenswing is correct, he does actually meet NHOCKEY. -DJSasso (talk) 14:50, 8 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Keep per Ravenswing, as he actually does pass Criteria #4 of WP:NHOCKEY. Ejgreen77 (talk) 02:23, 11 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]
