[edit] Jason McGill

I originally speedily deleted this article twice (under A7 and then G4), but the article has since been recreated for the third time. Given this, I figure that the article should be placed on AfD rather than an administrator unilaterally deleting the article for the third time. hoopydink^{Conas tá tú?} 21:00, 23 September 2006 (UTC)

• Delete per WP:RS and above. Hello32020 21:04, 23 September 2006 (UTC)
• Keep Chairman of a professional football club so should come under the WP:BIO guideline "Sportspeople/athletes/competitors who have played in a fully professional league" just as much as a player. JASpencer 21:18, 23 September 2006 (UTC)
• Keep He is the chairman of a football club - which is worth notability. Mattythewhite 14:50, 24 September 2006 (UTC)
• Keep He is the chairman of a notable football club Kingjamie 20:39, 24 September 2006 (UTC)
• This discussion has been included in WikiProject Football's list of football (soccer) related deletions. Scottmsg 16:56, 25 September 2006 (UTC)

• Comment - he is MD not Chairman which in such football clubs is a significantly less notable role in terms of public profile. BlueValour 17:46, 27 September 2006 (UTC)

• Keep He's actually the Managing Director [1], but this doesn't invalidate the reasons given above - York City are a professional club and notable enough for him to be included in WP. Qwghlm 17:03, 25 September 2006 (UTC)
• Delete. That WP:BIO guideline applies to sportspeople who have played in a league. What's this guy really done? A one line bio that barely establishes notability and has no likelihood of being expanded in the future, unless possibly he stubs his toe on the Premiereship trophy.

• Delete, frankly I don't see any connection to the WP:BIO guidelines for sportspeople. We don't have articles for every CEO out there, so... Punkmorten 06:31, 26 September 2006 (UTC)
• Keep, but needs expanding. If that is all the info on him, then it isn't worthy of an article, however I suspect there's at least enough to write a few paragraphs. I would suggest that the man himself is reasonably notable, but not highly notable. aLii 10:26, 26 September 2006 (UTC)
• Delete - he is the MD of a non-league football club which simply is not a notable role. MDs of such clubs do not have the public profile of Chairmen and his job is equivalent to that of MDs of very many other local companies. BlueValour 17:40, 27 September 2006 (UTC)
