The result was delete. Consensus is that he fails WP:ATHLETE, and the keep arguments have provided no other evidence that he would pass WP:GNG or another notability guideline. Kevin (talk) 08:35, 25 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Article concerning a back-up quarterback in college football without significant notability. TM 22:43, 17 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep. Meets notability guidelines. --bender235 (talk) 12:01, 18 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete. The subject currently fails WP:ATHLETE and WP:GNG. Coverage is not significant in that it mainly reports on stats and line-up changes. Location (talk) 18:50, 19 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- Note: This debate has been included in the list of Athletes-related deletion discussions. -- Ron Ritzman (talk) 23:44, 23 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

- Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so consensus may be reached.
Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, Tim Song (talk) 00:05, 24 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep. He started eight games as quarterback for LSU in 2008, which amply satisfies WP:ATHLETE. Clarityfiend (talk) 06:02, 24 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep Still, he has enough notability. Burner0718 JibbaJabba! 06:50, 24 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete Fails WP:ATHLETE, as has not played professionally. As this is our loosest criterion for notability, I think failing this is sufficient for deletion. As for WP:BIO, there isn't significant coverage of the subject. Stats and scores don't count. Or, to put it bluntly, Wikipedia should not be for backup college football players.

- Delete not automatically notable, and no significant coverage. For American football, and possibly other college sports we may need to modify the rules slightly, but we should not do it in individual cases (the current wording in WP:WikiProject College football is " A player notable enough for inclusion in the project usually, but not always, goes on to a National Football League career, and thus is also covered under that project." . We seem to need guidelines for handling them earlier in their career. DGG ( talk ) 02:22, 25 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]
