Deletion of David Johnson (American football)

Comment: WP:Athlete and a professional career is irrelevant, as he clearly passes  and the basic criterion of #Basic criteria| ("presumed to be notable if he or she has been the subject of published secondary source material which is reliable, intellectually independent, and independent of the subject"), as established by the sources cited in the article. "Wikipuffery" is a term coined in an essay that has no weight as a guideline or policy. Moreover, there is no such thing as described in that essay in the article; it contains only factual statements without "exaggeration". Johnson has had feature articles in numerous newspapers: http://www.abqjournal.com/sports/18917407794sports09-18-08.htm The Albuquerque Journal, http://www.oregonlive.com/collegefootball/index.ssf/2008/10/overlooked_at_southridge_qb_jo.html The Oregonian, http://www.tulsaworld.com/site/printerfriendlystory.aspx?articleid=20080831_94_B1_Tulsas297112 The Tulsa World, http://www.al.com/sports/birminghamnews/index.ssf?/base/sports/1219652107174320.xml&coll=2 The Birmingham News, and http://www.al.com/sports/press-register/ssport.ssf?/base/sports/123115056548790.xml&coll=3 The Mobile Press-Register.
