Commando Krav Maga (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) (restore | cache | AfD)) Article was put up for Speedy deletion again however the article was re-worked and any advert was ommitted. Many additional references were added and subject is worth notability in the world of martial arts. Commando Krav Maga is an independant system from the general Israeli fighting system of Krav Maga and should be listed separately instead of as a sub-heading.

Article was deleted en massse as described at the West Precedent Essay, listing Walter J. West (among other articles) as precedence to delete. West and many of the other articles have subsequently been restored. Upon further research,significant improvements, information and additional sources have been found and added to the article. Please review at User:Paulmcdonald/Archibald Leech (football coach) for details. Paul McDonald (talk) 18:55, 7 November 2008 (UTC)
- The other articles can be reviewed at:
- Question, the improved article says he "stayed on as a professor at the college" aftee his one year as a coach at Geneva College. Professor of what, and what business? (checking from the refs, I see he was a [physician, and VP of a local bank). What part of this career is notable? I'm going to use this article for some more general questions.
- is being the coach of one of the less important football teams for one year notable by itself? If it is, why isn't being a professor for one year at a small college notable by itself. WP is not a faculty directory, and ditto for sports.
- is being an important player on a small college team notable by itself? Is being the starplayer of the year on a school college team notable by itself. DGG (talk) 20:46, 7 November 2008 (UTC)
- I have combined these related requests into one DRV. Stifle (talk) 12:24, 8 November 2008 (UTC)
- Keep deleted in each case; verifiable but not notable (by reference to the agreed community standards, as against CFBN etc.). Stifle (talk) 12:24, 8 November 2008 (UTC)
- Comment I believe that combining these into one discussion is a very bad idea. Part of the reason that many of these articles were deleted in the first place is because they were combined into many AfDs all at once (I believe the total count was 72 articles in a short period of time). So far, a full one-fourth of those articles have been rapidly restored or merged into other existing articles when they were found to have professional careers or other widely recognizable feats such as induction in the college football hall of fame. The bulk nomination process, in this case, was a huge hindrance and not a help. If it is insisted that these articles be handled as a bulk discussion, I will ask them to be closed by the nominator (myself) and then re-introduce them one at a time so that they can be discussed each on their own merits.--Paul McDonald (talk) 15:17, 8 November 2008 (UTC)
- I think we need to cede some to practicality. The prospect of making 9 different comments on 9 different DRV threads on 9 relatively similar subjects was daunting. We are likely to see more participation with one discussion. Protonk (talk) 16:03, 8 November 2008 (UTC)

- Comment - I'd support allowing recreation of Bill Carroll, as he was head coach at at the University of Oklahoma for the Track & Field and Cross Country teams. That's a HC position at a major university as opposed to the others. Neutral on the rest for now, although I personally wouldn't mind them being recreated as an argument can be made for their notability. VegaDark (talk) 16:06, 8 November 2008 (UTC)
