More specific guidelines overrule WP:GNG, right (per WP:IINFO?) Assuming so, Delete because he fails WP:NHOCKEY and is not notable for anything else. LittlePuppers (talk) 02:42, 2 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]

(my opinion, others may disagree) They can, in some circumstances. For example, the WP:MILL coverage of college hockey games such as [1] should be ignored for the purpose of GNG based on the subject-specific guidelines. That said, not meeting an SNG isn't enough to delete an article, as an extreme case whether Arthur Conan Doyle meets WP:NCRIC is irrelevant. power~enwiki (π, ν) 02:46, 2 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Okay, thanks - although I'd say Arthur Conan Doyle would be judged by WP:AUTHOR :). LittlePuppers (talk) 03:29, 2 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete I don't think he is notable through either his entrepreneurial or his athletic profile (or their combination). Agricolae (talk) 01:20, 9 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]
