Deletion of John Holmes (football player)

Comment: VegaDark says that the  standard is unreasonable, DarkAudit says that  has not been met.  Can you get together on this one, or do you want to maintain opposing points

Comment: College football is not considered an amateur sport because there is a fully professional level of competition. He is not played in a professional league, so does not meet the guideline. Even as a college football player, there isn't much here but a lot of peacock words that make him sound more notable than he is. Nothing here to show that he is notable even on his own team. The majority of the references are for the drug bust and the aftermath. Not only is it a |single event, the coverage is all local. Local as in towns of 20,000 or less local. There is coverage, but mere coverage is not sufficient per guidelines. It needs to be significant coverage. It isn't
