Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Mark Franks
A quick search for sources demonstrates he likely passes GNG. Note: When this ice hockey bio article was created it met the criteria for inclusion under NHOCKEY. Recently, however, the NHOCKEY bar has been raised, and this nominator has been on a tear to delete articles which now may fall short of the newly raised bar. The sheer volume of AfD nominations by this editor (37-plus in the last three days alone) makes it impossible to fully research all of the articles to prove they meet GNG. Expecting any editor to properly research this large number of articles for GNG sources is not realistic or fair, especially when one considers that many of these AfDs require searching pre-Internet sources. Going straight to AfD with this many nominations, without first using PRODs or appropriate tagging, is disruptive. The nom should be reminded that deletion is a last resort, and per  should only be used after other alternatives have been fully explored
