Non-notable baseball individual. All sources I see are routine in nature, based on in-season beat reports and notes of hirings and firings. – Muboshgu (talk) 22:07, 14 November 2011 (UTC)

::Note to closing administrator Agent Vodello, a self-proclaimed inclusionist, has with frequency voted to delete articles created by me, while voting to keep articles not authored by myself of similar or less notability. Agent Vodello's dislike of myself as an editor has been chronicled on Wikipedia, and his dislike of me is likely the cause of him vote "delete" - rather than the articles worthiness, or lack thereof. Please take this into consideration when making your final decision. Alex (talk) 02:25, 19 November 2011 (UTC)

:::I spent 10 minutes looking for sources to try and protect the article you wrote, as I do for most AFD articles, regardless of who created them, and I couldn't find anything whatsoever. My AFD participation at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Alex Hawley (2nd nomination) and Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Arena baseball in the past week were delete votes for articles you did not create. I vote on most articles created at Wikipedia:WikiProject Deletion sorting/Baseball. The article's creator does not decide whether or not I vote keep or delete. I will not respond to your repeated personal attacks anymore. Agent VodelloOK, Let's Party, Darling! 04:54, 19 November 2011 (UTC)

:Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so a clearer consensus may be reached.

:As well as a hundred other odd mentions via Google News. JORGENEV 18:15, 22 November 2011 (UTC)

:*I found two of the sources listed above, one is at [http://www.lvrj.com/sports/30675079.html] and the other [http://www.allbusiness.com/company-activities-management/board-management/13189311-1.html]. I still don't think this local coverage of him being hired and subsequently fired as manager of the 51s somehow establishes notability, or that he has a bunch of passing mentions and WP:GHITS, but I'll leave that up to others to decide. Thanks for finding these sources. I'll try and find something more substantial. Agent VodelloOK, Let's Party, Darling! 18:40, 23 November 2011 (UTC)

  • Keep.. In addition to the sources listed above, i found this one [http://greatest21days.blogspot.com/2011/02/mike-basso-felt-good-514.html]. Seems to have enough sourcing to make him notable enough to include. Spanneraol (talk) 14:14, 24 November 2011 (UTC)
