[edit] Kalee Carey
This article was prodded by B (talk · contribs), with the concern: "No evidence that she went pro or evidence of significant media coverage beyond merely reporting game statistics." I feel that playing at college level and having an ESPN bio is at the very least sufficient to warrant a wider discussion. Procedural nom, no opinion. AecisBrievenbus 22:51, 6 February 2008 (UTC)
- Why? Virtually every Division I football or basketball player has a recruiting bio from rivals.com and scout.com. The ESPN "bio" was just the 2003 press release from when she played in the McDonald's All-American game. There is no evidence of coverage that exceeds merely reporting of her minor role in games. --B (talk) 23:35, 6 February 2008 (UTC)

- Delete Just playing collegiately does not make one notable. There are over one hundred Division I basketball programs, and every one of them releases a bio of their players to the media. Even the teams that have no shot of winning a game all year. Without any pre or postseason awards or significant national attention, this is just one of thousands of student athletes who pass through the halls of their respective schools each year.

- Delete: Not standing out from the general run of players and therefore not "notable" within that context. I'm sure she's wonderful, and I know she could beat me in a game of HORSE, but she should play out her career without the burden of Wikipedia articles.
