Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Jaymar Johnson
Passes WP:BIO; ''The Chicago Tribune'' is a national, not local paper, and it is at least as respected as ''The New York Times'' and ''The Washington Post''. If Jaymar Johnson's article in it is "local" coverage, it belies the argument (presented in another similar concurrent AFD) that local coverage is somehow of inferior quality. ''The Star Tribune'' is currently the 14th largest newspaper by circulation.http://www.editorandpublisher.com/eandp/news/article_display.jsp?vnu_content_id=1003966608 I second Cbl62's appeal to nominators to please do a Google News search for media coverage before nominating more of these similar articles, as this recent glut of American football-related nominations is bordering on disruptive at this point. I'm not assuming anything other than good faith, but I think it is a reasonable expectation that nominators ensure for themselves that the nominated article does not (first and foremost) meet the |General notability guidelines. Only ''if'' they fail that should additional criteria, like  or  or  come into consideration
