Subject of article fails WP:BIO and WP:V -Nv8200p talk 03:49, 29 December 2006 (UTC)

  • Delete No references P.B. Pilhet / Talk 03:53, 29 December 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete per nom, vanity page. Daniel J. Leivick 03:57, 29 December 2006 (UTC)
  • Speedy delete as vanity, especially considering this: "He drives a Lincoln Navigator and has a penchant for drinking Jim Beam on the rocks and hooking up with many females." Daniel Case 04:06, 29 December 2006 (UTC)
  • Criteria FROM WP:BIO
Sportspeople/athletes/competitors who have played in a fully professional league, or a competition of equivalent standing in a non-league sport such as swimming, or at the highest level in mainly amateur sports or other competitive activities that are themselves considered notable, including college sports in the United States. Articles about first team squad members who have not made a first team appearance may also be appropriate, but only if the individual is at a club of sufficient stature that most members of its squad are worthy of articles. Third-party verification from a non-trivial publication outside of publications by sponsors of the sport or activity should be provided to demonstrate that the subject is widely recognized—meeting the first criterion—as performing in a fully professional league or at the highest level. --Kevin Murray 04:11, 29 December 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete If you look at the end of the year summary for the 2006 team, Scott isn't even mentioned. He is on the roster, but his 2005 numbers didn't look particularly amazing to me - 13 tackles, the same as another teammate at the same position, same year. Playing for Trinity College is not playing at the highest level of college sports - it's a small school. Brianyoumans 04:49, 29 December 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete - per WP:BIO not sure what Kevin Murray is trying to get at, but not knowing football, is Trinity college of sufficient stature? That aside, I don't see the 3rd party verification of notability. SkierRMH 04:54, 29 December 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete per my comments above. Zetawoof(ζ) 05:16, 29 December 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete, no WP:RS indicating subject meets WP:BIO for athletes. Considering that football is not a mainly amateur sport, the or other competitive activities... including college sports clause does not seem to apply. That notwithstanding, playing for a D3 school wouldn't even be at the highest level, and is not in itself an assertion of notability. --Kinu t/c (éŕ) 06:38, 29 December 2006 (UTC)
    • Comment The assertion in the box that he is expected to be a second round draft pick is so absurd it makes me think this is largely a hoax. --Brianyoumans 07:08, 29 December 2006 (UTC)
      • Comment: You're probably right. At least he didn't say he's more 1337 than Troy Smith or Brady Quinn. Now that would be blatant self-aggrandization. --Kinu t/c (éŕ) 07:24, 29 December 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete per Brianyoumans and Zetawoof. If he isn't even listed in the season summary for his team, he's not notable, without even getting into the fact that it's a Division III college team. --Metropolitan90 07:12, 29 December 2006 (UTC)
  • Comment Per WP guidelines "Articles about first team squad members who have not made a first team appearance may also be appropriate, but only if the individual is at a club of sufficient stature that most members of its squad are worthy of articles". The article said that he was injured, so if he is first team but didn't play he could be notable. I think it fails by the school (club) having insufficient stature.

  • Delete Delete. WikiMan53 T/C e@ 17:03, 29 December 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete. It's an attack, not vanity, and probably should have been speedied as such, as the last version by the original author included

    He drives a Lincoln Navigator and has a penchant for drinking Jim Beam on the rocks and hooking up with Julia Hoyt. Scott frequently likes to blackout and get naked at inappropriate times. He is often said to have the biggest legs in the room. Rumors have also circulated around campus that he is a raging homosexual who enjoys particpating in bukkake events. It was reportedly during one of these escapades, that Scott picked up his infamous case of gonorrhoea.
