[edit] Jon Dowd
Notability on this topic is shaky; even within the sports gaming community, it's only a minor curiosity. I'm not sure there's any info on the page worth merging into Barry Bonds or any of the respective game's pages, either. — BorgHunter (talk) 05:00, 28 May 2008 (UTC)
- Comment I don't see why this couldn't be mentioned in MVP Baseball series. There are sources available [1]. Zagalejo^^^ 05:09, 28 May 2008 (UTC)
- It already is. I meant that I don't think there's any additional information in the Dowd article that should be included in the MVP Baseball article. Sorry, it's late and I'm not articulating things very clearly, it seems. — BorgHunter (talk) 05:13, 28 May 2008 (UTC)
- This could still be a redirect to that page. No need for deletion tools. Zagalejo^^^ 05:14, 28 May 2008 (UTC)
- Agreed, but enough people worked on the page that I felt some discussion was appropriate before just chucking it and going the redirect route, hence the AfD. It does date back to 2005, after all. — BorgHunter (talk) 05:21, 28 May 2008 (UTC)

- Redirect: not notable, might even be original research. I have no clue what to make of this article, but I trust the compromise set out above. Randomran (talk) 16:35, 2 June 2008 (UTC)
- Delete all unreferenced material per WP:V policy. The only external link is related to an attempt at original research. Marasmusine (talk) 13:36, 4 June 2008 (UTC)
