This was originally a nomination to CSD that I rejected. I have found enough sources to pass WP:V, although I am not convinced he passes either of the criteria under WP:ATHLETE. Besides this is the likely WP:COI issue that the article suffers. Trusilver 03:19, 16 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

- Keep If it is verifiable, he meets the criteria as having played on the highest possible professional level of the game. (Professional Darts Corporation) It split of from the better known British Darts Federation, but that has no influence. - Mgm|(talk) 08:46, 21 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete due to lack of verifiability. If he is playing with PDC, I haven't found the evidence to support it other than the link in the article (which is simply a list of results for a single tournament). There doesn't appear to have been a single word written about him anywhere else online. And his being touted as "up and coming" by an anon on the article's talk page gives me flashbacks to a thousand different A7-speedied band articles. --Finngall talk 11:23, 21 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]
