Player does not qualify for WP:NRU (Major League Rugby is not a notable league under WP:NRU), only brief mentions and news of him signing for sides so doesn't qualify for WP:GNG either. Rugbyfan22 (talk) 16:44, 8 November 2020 (UTC)

- Delete per nom, rugby players in the US are not automatically notable. There are several articles in Category:Seattle Seawolves players that should probably go too. Reywas92Talk 19:20, 8 November 2020 (UTC)
- Hi @Reywas92:, AfD's have been listed for certain Seattle Seawolves players and you should be able to see them on list of Rugby union-related deletion discussions. Rugbyfan22 (talk) 19:47, 8 November 2020 (UTC)
- That's a lot to comment on...prod ought to work on these too, but put me down as delete all. Reywas92Talk 20:29, 8 November 2020 (UTC)
- @Reywas92:, there has been dispute previously over whether or not Major League Rugby is notable under WP:NRU (it was previously added with no discussion hence why lots of pages have been created/survived this long) so didn't want to PROD them for that reason.

- Delete This league does not give notability. I would suggest a mass deletion, but I have also seen those fail because of objections to one notable person admist a sea of non-notable people, so I understand why some go a different route. I do not think I have ever made a mass deletion nomination.John Pack Lambert (talk) 16:19, 9 November 2020 (UTC)
- Thanks for your comment @Johnpacklambert:, not sure how I'd go about doing a mass deletion, and given the previous contentious nature I thought a large number of AfD's would have to suffice. I've managed to go through all the teams and players now though so there shouldn't be anymore to clog up the deletion sorting lists. Rugbyfan22 (talk) 16:34, 9 November 2020 (UTC)
