Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Charles "Cy" Sherman
per the significant coverage in reliable sources linked by {{user|WikiOriginal-9}}. / does not apply because the subject died in 1951 and because he is notable for being a newspaperman for nearly 60 years. The obituary in ''The Lincoln Star'' provides very substantial coverage about him. The obituary demonstrates Cy Sherman's national impact as a sports editor and sports write: In 1936, Cy advanced the idea for the Associated Press members' national poll of top ten college football teams — the poll generally accepted today as designating the national champion. He has received coverage in other sources like https://www.newspapers.com/clip/7070227/omaha_daily_bee/ this article in the ''Omaha Bee'' and https://www.newspapers.com/clip/6723097/lincoln_evening_journal/ this article from the ''Lincoln Evening Journal'' ("Nationally Known Sports Editor Named to 'Sports Hall of Fame'"). Sherman clearly meets Wikipedia:Notability#General notability guideline.I oppose a merge to Nebraska Cornhuskers because the sources demonstrate that Cy Sherman's notability is not solely tied to the Nebraska Cornhuskers
