User:74.224.206.56 contacted me on my talk page and asked me to help with this AfD (they'd gotten as far as placing a tag, I guess not realizing that was as far as they could go). Their reasoning was "he is NOT a notable person." [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User_talk%3AMovingboxes&diff=235142718&oldid=235139786]. This is purely procedural.

  • Keep Subject meets WP:ATHLETE as a notable college athlete, a player in a professional league (arena football) and the subject of non-trivial media coverage as a pastor after retirement. Movingboxes (talk) 07:34, 30 August 2008 (UTC)
  • Strong delete for O'Neil, a college quarterback that never finished a single season in the arena league? How is this a notable person?—Preceding unsigned comment added by 74.224.206.56 (talk) 08:09, 30 August 2008 (UTC)
  • Keep The person concerned is of note in the specialist area of American College Football. Jaraalbe (talk) 07:40, 30 August 2008 (UTC
  • Keep - easily passes WP:BIO under the whole pro athlete, plus as MVP of the Rose Bowl (the granddady of them all I believe) I think would be a "notable award or honor" along with induction into the game's hall of fame. I would suggest the IP editor read the notability guidelines before nominating every U. of Oregon quarterback. Some likely fail notability, but others easily pass the long established guidelines at WP:BIO. Aboutmovies (talk) 08:41, 30 August 2008 (UTC)
  • Keep Its notable enough to stay here. Kalivd (talk) 14:20, 30 August 2008 (UTC)
