  • Delete per nom. --Kinu t/c 18:39, 23 August 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete, nonnotable (just being a college varsity baseball player isn't enough). Besides, if there isn't a rule mandating deletion of any bio that includes the line that the subject "enjoys long walks on the beach", there should be. NawlinWiki 19:53, 23 August 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete no sufficient assertion of notability, I agree with nom that this is likely WP:VAIN.-- danntm T C 20:21, 23 August 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete - fails WP:BIO -- Whpq 21:45, 23 August 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete. Notability is not asserted, and I doubt it anyways -- Canadian college baseball isn't on many scouts' radars. Possible vanity too. SliceNYC 21:45, 23 August 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete. All the "Sweetie" stuff screams that this is WP:VAIN. No real evidence of notability. Doesn't pass WP:BIO on info given. Can't find any info on the net that would suggest he is a top MLB prospect or anything like that. Should go. CindyLooWho 23:45, 23 August 2006 (UTC)
  • DON'T DELETE. Although this article may be a little excessive in some instances, it is extremely factual, and Thomas Brooks is actually being scouted by several MLB teams at the moment. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 142.245.193.7 (talk • contribs)
