Contested deletion[edit]

This page should not be speedy deleted as an unambiguous copyright infringement, because... No copyright, info taken from UWbadgers.com website. Thanks UW1941 (talk) 13:42, 10 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]

@UW1941: This player does not appear to be notable enough for inclusion per the notability criteria of WP:NCOLLATH and WP:NGRIDIRON. --Drm310 🍁 (talk) 15:20, 10 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Disagree, the starting QB for a top 10 program in NCAA football seems very notable. UW1941 (talk) 18:28, 10 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Contested deletion: February 2018[edit]

Since this is a proposed deletion and not an AfD discussion, I'll try my case here. Although the page was created by a sockpuppet, it is not complete vandalism. Yes, it does fail WP:NGRIDIRON but it does not fail WP:GNG. WP:NGRIDIRON is used as a general baseline, and Hornibrook has appeared in the US spotlight multiple times over his years at UW. This has the potential to build into a great page, even if he does not go on to the NFL. I will try to do some work on the page; it may not be immediately but it should happen within the next 72 hours. If we could at least hold on for a week to the deletion request and reevaluate that would be great, :@Domdeparis:. Thanks! Willsome429 (talk) 18:54, 6 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]
