[edit] Tyreke Evans
Subject fails WP:BIO, as he is still just a high school basketball player and has not "played at the highest level of competition" Thomas.macmillan 21:08, 16 March 2007 (UTC)
- Keep. WP:BIO states "This list is only a guideline, and should not be used an absolute test of notability; each article should stand or fall on its own merits.". Subject has been featured in a major publication as being an "exceptional teenage athlete". Patken4 18:56, 17 March 2007 (UTC)

- This AfD nomination was incomplete. It is listed now. DumbBOT 12:59, 19 March 2007 (UTC)
- Keep. See User:Patken4. --Bender235 20:44, 19 March 2007 (UTC)
- Delete per nom. Being in SI is nice, but not adequate on its own. Since the depth of coverage is poor and he has yet to play professionally, an article isn't justified. Valrith 20:47, 19 March 2007 (UTC)
- Delete - many kids in many sports get profiles on their potential. However, notability comes from achieving something and so far he has not played professionally. Bridgeplayer 21:31, 19 March 2007 (UTC)
- Delete I draw the minimum line of notability for high school basketballers at the McDonald's All-Americans, and it'll be at least until next year before Tyreke can make that claim. A lot can happen to a prep sports star between now and then. Caknuck 00:19, 20 March 2007 (UTC)
