[edit] Ryan Wehrle

nn per WP:N. Never played in major leagues. Minor leagues are full of players with multiple college awards; can't have a WP article for everyone. Truest blue 02:42, 27 July 2007 (UTC)

  • Note: This debate has been included in the list of baseball-related deletions. —Truest blue 04:24, 27 July 2007 (UTC)
  • Delete for above reasons. --Truest blue 06:30, 2 August 2007 (UTC)
  • Delete per nom. Look forward to seeing his article created if he should make the majors though. Resolute 04:15, 27 July 2007 (UTC)
  • Keep due to his achievements at the college level, plus notability Corpx 05:31, 27 July 2007 (UTC)
  • Keep because i'm only making pages for former Nebraska baseball players. There is no other "Ryan Wehrle" in the world for the page to be made for. Thundrplaya 09:54, 27 July 2007 (UTC)

  • Keep Given the number of Google news page hits and his awards and achievements while playing for a highly-ranked Nebraska team. --Sanfranman59 17:20, 27 July 2007 (UTC)
  • Strong Delete as a non-notable minor league player per WP:BASEBALL and WP:BIO guidelines. The Google news hits are mainly trivial mentions like Wehrle got two hits today, most people who play in college baseball likely gets the same number of hits there. Also the baseball college awards, most people when they get drafted gets them, and I don't think it shows any merit, as he got drafted very low in the MLB Draft (20th round, a couple of hundred of players ahead of him). The odds for him making it to the big time is very low, and WP:NOT a crystal ball. Jaranda wat's sup 02:51, 28 July 2007 (UTC)
  • Keep You guys are really picky. What about the other minor leaguers. Go to the category "Minor league baseball players"...there is a good list of players that havnt been deleted. Besides this is the only way i can follow his career and thats the only reason i made it.Thundrplaya 9:50, 28 July 2007 (UTC)
  • I don't think it is being picky. If all Nebraska players get a WP article then it's only fair that every minor leaguer should get a WP article. If every minor leaguer gets a WP article then I should get a WP article because I took out the garbage today and the garbage was really heavy. Get my point? --Truest blue 20:16, 28 July 2007 (UTC)
  • BTW a lot of the players in the minor league baseball players category have recently been deleted for the reasons said here. Those that remain are either 1) notable for non-baseball reasons 2) first round picks and have had heavy coverage by baseball publications 3) articles that I have not nominated yet.-Truest blue 20:16, 28 July 2007 (UTC)
  • Delete per nom, lack of notability. There are numerous athletes in baseball and other sports with more Google hits whose wikipedia pages were deleted. Dmirkin 04:40, 29 July 2007 (UTC)
  • Keep: Enough accomplishments at the college level to warrant notability. Chengwes 06:30, 31 July 2007 (UTC)
  • Delete, he's in the GCL, so if he continues to do well, he'll merit a page when he makes the bigs.Ravenmasterq 23:56, 2 August 2007 (UTC)
